Salt Lake City Hit-and-Run Truck Accident Lawyer

CASE EVALUATIONS ARE FAST, EASY, AND FREE.

Accidents involving commercial trucks are devastating, even more so when it involves a hit-and-run driver. In a matter of seconds, you or a loved one can be seriously injured or worse by a person driving an 18-wheeler, delivery truck, tractor-trailer, or other commercial vehicle. Unfortunately, hit-and-run accidents often leave the victims, their families, and legal representatives to figure out who this driver is and how to track him or her down.

A Salt Lake City hit-and-run truck accident lawyer from Craig Swapp & Associates can help you with your hit-and-run claim. We don’t want you to tackle your truck accident on your own. With our resources, we can work to track down the driver and get you the compensation you deserve.

Dealing with Hit-and-Run Complications

Hit-and-run accidents can get complicated because you likely won’t know about the other driver, so you can’t file a claim with his or her insurance company. You do not have anyone with which to blame or lay fault on. Unless you can identify the truck driver responsible, there would be no contributory negligence. You would then have to instead file a claim with your own insurance company’s uninsured or underinsured motorist coverage.

However, our firm can help you through this process. We will use our legal resources to attempt to locate the driver and learn as much as we can about the incident. This includes all of the following points:

Speaking with witnesses
Checking area surveillance tapes
Following up on all information and leads regarding your case
Gathering information from police reports
Working with your insurance company

Receiving Compensation for Injuries and Damages

A hit-and-run accident happens when a truck driver hits a motor vehicle, a pedestrian, or a piece of property and then immediately leaves the scene without providing contact or insurance information. Depending on the circumstances, seriousness of the injuries, and the damage incurred during the crash, the truck driver, if caught, can be charged with a crime for leaving the scene of an accident, which could help to prove your injury claim.

You also have options for receiving compensation:

Locate the other driver so you can make a claim on his or her insurance
File an uninsured motorist claim for compensation for your injuries under your own insurance policy
File an underinsured motorist claim with your own insurance if you locate the negligent trucker and he or she has insufficient coverage to fully compensate you
File a claim under your collision insurance coverage for vehicle repairs and car rental expenses

Client Reviews

“I was concerned with all the paperwork”

Before calling your firm I had 2 big worries. One was I didn’t want to do more paper work, and that fear was resolved when I had to do very little, but Craig Swapp and Assoc. did most of it, and when I did have to come in to sign papers they worked around the times I could do it. Worry 2 was I didn’t want people to think I was “sue happy” and that I was just out to get money. I just wanted my bills to be paid for that were from the accident, and that was resolved I think by Mr. Wes Mortenson and Theresa because they listened to what I had to say.

"I would hire them in a second"

My biggest fear was not having all the expenses caused by the accident paid for in full. I was assured they would be taken care of but I admit I was skeptical. When we wrapped everything up (which happened quicker than I was originally told) I had extra money in my pocket. I honestly thought there was a catch but my attorney explained everything to me in detail. If I am ever in that position again I’ll be giving Craig Swapp a call.

"I was afraid of the fees"

I was afraid of the fees I would have to pay a lawyer. I waited over a year before hiring your law firm. I finally reached out to your online help where they were able to help me understand the process and what would happen. In all honesty I absolutely loved working with the individuals that were involved in my case. They were genuine & heartfelt about my case. It felt as though they really cared and were concerned about me, not just as a client but as a person.

"I was afraid that my issue was too small"

I was afraid that my issue was too small to be handled, and that it would just be rejected. Or that I’d end up having to pay for my medical expenses and any of your teams expenses. I would definitely answer yes, it was resolved! I wasn’t ever made out to feel like my little issue didn’t matter, and my expenses were paid for- just what I wanted/needed.

"I am very pleased with the results"

My biggest fear was that it would be pointless to pursue legal action in my case. I felt like maybe I didn’t have much of a case. After speaking with Paul, I realize it was not of my own fault and that others can be held responsible for the pain and suffering I went through.
