I was injured by a hit-and-run driver and don’t have uninsured motorist coverage. Can I still be compensated for my damages?

Unfortunately, the answer may be no, unless you can find the driver and they have insurance coverage, either through a personal policy or, if they were driving for a company, the employer’s policy. Demas Law Group, P.C., advises all motorists to purchase uninsured motorist coverage to ensure you’ll receive compensation in a hit-and-run or uninsured motorist accident.
