All car accidents are traumatic experiences, but if the driver who hit you didn’t stop, you may have no recourse for covering your damages.

Hit-and-run cases are harder to resolve than typical accidents, but you’re not out of options. Colorado law gives injured victims real paths to compensation. Our hit-and-run accident lawyers in Denver can help fight for compensation, even if the other driver is never identified.<\/span><\/p>\n

What Counts as a Hit-and-Run in Colorado?<\/span><\/h2>\n

Colorado law requires every driver involved in a crash to stop, share information, and help anyone who is injured. When a driver leaves without doing so, it is considered a hit-and-run. This applies to crashes involving injuries, death, or property damage.<\/span><\/p>\n

A hit-and-run does not have to look dramatic. Some drivers may stop initially, but then flee the scene. Others never stop at all. Either way,<\/span> leaving the scene of an accident where someone is hurt is a crime<\/b> under Colorado law. As the accident victim, it also puts you in a tough spot.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Ordinarily, you would file a claim with the other party\u2019s insurer to cover your damages. Obviously, that is impossible if you do not know their identity. Our <\/span>Denver personal injury lawyers<\/span><\/a> may help you identify other avenues of recovering compensation.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

How Can Uninsured Motorist Coverage Help?\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n

When the at-fault driver flees and cannot be identified, <\/span>your own insurance<\/b> may be your first source of compensation. Colorado requires insurers to offer Uninsured Motorist Coverage, which can apply in hit-and-run situations.<\/span><\/p>\n

This coverage can help pay for medical expenses, lost wages, and pain and suffering. The amount available depends on your policy limits. Many drivers do not realize how much coverage they have until they sit down with an attorney and review their policy.<\/span><\/p>\n

An insurance company may not make recovering the benefit you are entitled to easy, even if it is your own insurer. Our hit-and-run accident attorneys in Denver know how to deal with insurance companies.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

What if Your Insurer Won\u2019t Pay Your Hit-and-Run Claim?<\/span><\/h2>\n

Even though your insurer offers <\/span>optional automobile insurance coverage<\/span><\/a> that can help with your damages, they often make things harder than they need to be. Insurance companies are businesses, and they <\/span>aren<\/b>\u2019t always on your side<\/b>. Their goal is to pay out as little as possible,\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Hit-and-run claims give them several angles to contest your claim. They may argue that your injuries were pre-existing or that your damages are overstated.<\/span><\/p>\n

You should not have to fight your own insurance company after a traumatic crash. Our legal team knows how to document and present evidence to counter their tactics.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

What Happens if the Hit-and-Run Driver Is Found Later?<\/span><\/h2>\n

Sometimes law enforcement identifies the at-fault driver weeks or months after the crash. When that happens, your legal options expand. You may be able to pursue a claim directly against that driver and their insurance company.<\/span><\/p>\n

A driver who leaves the scene of an accident can face both<\/span> criminal charges and civil lawsuits<\/b>. Your civil case and their criminal case are two separate matters, but police evidence can help your claim.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Even if you have already filed an Uninsured Motorist claim, finding the at-fault driver may open additional avenues for compensation. Our Denver hit-and-run accident lawyers can help you understand how the two claims interact and what strategy makes the most sense.<\/span><\/p>\n

How Long Do You Have to File a Claim?<\/span><\/h2>\n

In Colorado, car accident victims have<\/span> three years<\/b> from the date of the crash to file a personal injury lawsuit. Missing that deadline usually means losing your right to pursue legal action, regardless of how strong your case is.<\/span><\/p>\n

Your insurance company will have specific timelines for reporting and filing your Uninsured Motorist claim. Our legal team can help keep your claim on track and make sure you meet all important deadlines.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
