1. Take steps immediately to protect your rights. Your case may require you to take some extra legal steps. We can walk you through this. 2. You may be eligible for a much bigger settlement than it looks.

But this involves a legal tactic called stacking. To get this done

When you lose a loved one to a hit-and-run driver who leaves the scene of the accident, it’s a major tragedy, but it doesn’t have to be a travesty of justice. Both you and your family still have important rights enforceable in a South Carolina case. While it seems like there’s no one to hold accountable, there’s still a source you can use to recover a settlement that you might need desperately for financial support.

When an at-fault driver leaves the scene of a fatal accident, the victim’s family can still recover a wrongful death settlement from a surprising source: the victim’s own insurance policy. That’s because South Carolina requires all car, truck, and motorcycle insurance policies to contain coverage called uninsured motorist coverage. But the insurance company may be tough to deal with.

right, you need a trained legal eye with extensive experience in handling auto insurance policies. One of the first things we do in any case is figure out all the policies we can find to help get our people the highest financial settlement possible.

In a wrongful death case with a hit-and-run driver, you can’t afford to be the only amateur in the room.

Sadly, this case got started because no one would help your loved one. Don’t turn away from professional help offered by a South Carolina wrongful death attorney whose job is to protect your rights and maximize your family’s compensation for what might be a devastating financial loss. We can help you recover a sense of justice from a horrific act.

There are a few secrets you should know about using UM coverage in a fatal accident case. Almost no one will volunteer this information to you, especially not at the insurance company, but we will because it’s vital to your case.
