Being the victim of a hit and run accident is overwhelming. You’re left dealing with injuries, damage, and unanswered questions while the person responsible drives away. At Joseph Kaiser, Attorney at Law, LLC, my firm focuses on representing victims of hit and run accidents in Charleston and across South Carolina.
Every client who comes to my firm receives personalized attention. Your case is never treated like just another file. My firm takes the time to understand your specific circumstances, explain your options clearly, and keep you updated at every stage. My firm also prioritizes clear and quick communication so that you never feel left in the dark about your own case.
My firm represents your rights in a civil claim for compensation and if necessary helps guide you through the criminal process if the driver is caught and prosecuted. My firm can communicate directly with the solicitor’s office on your behalf so you don’t have to navigate the criminal system alone.
Evidence in a hit and run case can vanish quickly. Surveillance footage may be erased, witnesses’ memories can fade, and physical evidence can be lost. By contacting Joseph Kaiser, Attorney at Law, LLC early, you give my firm the chance to investigate thoroughly and build the strongest case possible on your behalf.
When you work with my firm, you can also count on direct access, timely updates, and honest guidance throughout the process. You’ll always know where your case stands.
Q: What if the police never find the driver?
A: You may still have options. My firm looks into your uninsured/underinsured motorist coverage to pursue compensation for your injuries and damages.
Q: Can you help with the criminal side of the case?
A: Yes. If the driver is caught and charged, my firm communicates with the solicitor’s office and guides you through the criminal process.
Q: How long do I have to file a claim?
A: In South Carolina, the statute of limitations for car accident claims, including hit and runs, is 3 years from the date of the accident. Waiting too long could mean losing your right to compensation.
Q: What damages can I recover in a hit and run case?
A: Depending on your situation, you may recover medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, and property damage.
Q: Why do I need a lawyer?
A: Insurance companies often make it difficult to recover full compensation, especially when the at-fault driver is unknown. My firm ensures your rights are protected, fights for the maximum recovery, and gives your case the personal attention it deserves.
