Fatal Hit-and-Run Accidents in Sacramento, CA: Know Your Legal Rights

Hit-and-run accidents, especially those involving pedestrians, can cause devastating injuries and emotional trauma for victims and their families. Under California law, families of victims who die in hit-and-run accidents may be entitled to compensation for funeral expenses, lost income, pain and suffering, and emotional distress.

Even when the responsible driver is unknown, uninsured motorist coverage or claims against other liable parties, such as vehicle owners or government entities, may allow families to recover damages. California’s statute of limitations gives families two years from the date of death to file a wrongful death lawsuit, so it’s essential to act promptly to protect your rights and preserve crucial evidence.
