If you are injured in an auto accident and the other driver flees, you can seek compensation through your own no-fault (PIP) and uninsured motorist (UM) coverage, even if the other driver is never found.  However, your insurance company may closely examine and challenge your claim because it must pay out of its own funds.  Reporting the crash immediately, gathering evidence, seeking prompt medical care, and hiring an experienced attorney will help protect your right to full compensation.  Learn more about using UM coverage after a hit-and-run.
