Victim of a hit-and-run?

When the at-fault driver disappears, it's easy to feel like you have no options. Even when the other driver is never found, Bret Franco knows how to pursue compensation from a hit-and-run.

Past results do not guarantee or predict a similar outcome with respect to any future case. Each case is different and must be evaluated on its own facts and circumstances.

The driver may have fled. Your right to compensation didn't leave with them.

Chicago's busy intersections and expressways see plenty of hit-and-run cases, and it's a scary situation to be left in. Here's the middle section:

A hit-and-run accident often leaves Chicago drivers and pedestrians confused about where to turn, especially when Chicago police can't identify the driver or locate the vehicle involved in the crash. It can feel like the case ends right there, but it doesn't have to end that way at all for you.

Most Illinois auto policies include uninsured and underinsured motorist coverage designed for exactly this kind of situation, allowing you to pursue compensation through your own insurer when the at-fault driver can't be found or held accountable for what happened to you and your vehicle.

Bret Franco’s years on the insurance defense side give him a clear understanding of exactly how these claims are evaluated and how to push back firmly when an insurer tries to undervalue, delay, or dispute a legitimate hit-and-run claim.
