Dallas Hit and Run Accident FAQs

Get answers to commonly asked questions about our legal services and learn how Angel Reyes & Associates may assist you with your case.

What should I do immediately after a hit and run accident in Dallas?

After a hit and run accident in Dallas, call 911 right away and get medical attention, even if you feel okay. Write down everything you remember about the other vehicle, including color, make, and any partial plate information. Look for witnesses and ask for their contact details. Contact a hit and run accident lawyer as soon as possible to protect your rights.

Can I recover compensation if the driver who hit me drove away?

Yes. In Texas, your own uninsured motorist coverage may pay for your injuries even when the at-fault driver is never identified. If the driver is later found, you may also pursue a civil claim directly against them. We can review your insurance coverage and help you understand all available options.

Is leaving the scene of an accident a crime in Texas, and does that affect my civil case?

Yes, leaving the scene of an accident is a criminal offense in Texas. A criminal investigation can produce evidence that supports your civil claim. However, you do not need to wait for criminal proceedings to pursue compensation — your civil case moves on its own timeline and does not depend on a criminal conviction.

How long after a hit and run accident in Dallas can I file my claim?

In Texas, the statute of limitations for most personal injury cases is two years from the date of the crash. Uninsured motorist claims may have separate notice requirements under your policy. Contact us right away so we can preserve evidence and protect your rights.

How much does it cost to hire a Dallas hit and run accident lawyer from Angel Reyes & Associates?

Hiring a Dallas hit and run accident lawyer from Angel Reyes & Associates costs nothing upfront. We work on a contingency fee basis, meaning you pay no attorney fees unless we win. Your first consultation is free.
