Can I file a wrongful death claim for a hit-and-run accident?
- If a loved one has been killed in a hit-and-run accident, you might be able to bring a wrongful death lawsuit, depending on your relationship with the victim and whether you can identify the responsible driver. Usually a close relative or a representative of the estate has standing to file a claim. An experienced wrongful death attorney in your state can help you determine how to proceed after your loved one’s hit-and-run death.
