Why this case matters
Hit and Run Accident Lawyer cases in Brookhaven.
A hit-and-run feels like there’s no path to recovery, but in most cases there is. Your own uninsured motorist (UM) coverage typically applies, and we work with police, surveillance footage, and witnesses to identify the fleeing driver whenever possible.
Brookhaven's location along I-85 and Buford Highway (a state-designated high-crash corridor) makes it a hotspot for traffic accidents. Pedestrian safety is a particular concern along Buford Highway.
“Even when the at-fault driver is never found, your own auto insurance policy may have uninsured motorist coverage that pays your damages. Insurance companies don’t volunteer these payouts — they require you to fight for them. We do that fight.”
