Commentary:
When dealing with any kind of hit-and-run accident, things can feel rather hopeless until a car or driver is found so they can be made to take responsibility. What I’ve found to be even more painful, is when the police themselves simply aren’t doing enough to track down the offending vehicle, or it’s driver. Many people that have come into my office with a hit-and-run case felt cheated out of a fair investigation to track down the person that hurt them, so if victim’s don’t feel like the authorities are doing enough to bring justice, and independent investigation can always be arranged to pick up the slack and do the legwork that police seem unwilling to do sometimes. Just like with medical diagnosis, a second opinion is always within reach.
