Hit-and-Run Accidents in Texas: How to Get Compensation When the Driver Disappears

Hit-and-Run Accidents in Texas: How to Get Compensation When the Driver Disappears

Even if the driver flees, we find ways to get you paid.

Hit-and-Run Crashes Are on the Rise

Hit-and-run accidents have become increasingly common across Texas, especially in Montgomery County. High-speed collisions along I-45, FM-1314, and TX-242 often leave innocent victims injured while the at-fault driver speeds away. Whether the driver was intoxicated, unlicensed, uninsured, or simply panicked — you should not be left without help.

What If Police Can’t Find the Driver?

The biggest fear victims have is: “Can I even make a claim?”

The answer is often yes. Texas law provides multiple avenues for recovery:

  • Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist coverage (UM/UIM) — if included on your policy
  • Personal Injury Protection — regardless of fault
  • Crime Victims’ Compensation — for hit-and-run crimes
  • Potential business or property owner liability if the crash involved dangerous conditions

We identify every available source of financial recovery — not just the obvious ones.

How We Help Track Down the Driver

When a suspect exists, we move fast to preserve:

  • Traffic and business surveillance footage
  • Witness statements and license plate details
  • Vehicle damage and paint transfer evidence
  • Police investigative records

If the at-fault driver is found, we aggressively pursue their insurance company — and potentially punitive damages for fleeing.

Common Injuries in Hit-and-Run Cases

Victims often suffer more serious trauma because they may be left without immediate help:

  • Brain injuries from delayed medical response
  • Facial trauma from airbag deployment
  • Back and neck injuries requiring therapy or surgery
  • Crush injuries in pedestrian or cyclist cases

You Still Have Rights — Even if They Ran

Do not let an insurance company tell you there’s no case. Their priority is limiting payouts — not helping you heal. We step in to protect your claim and secure compensation for the harm done to you.
