Fatal accidents are never easy. Losing a family member in such an accident is a tragedy. In case it was a hit-and-run, things are even more complex since there is no liable driver.
However, if this is your case, don’t lose hope and don’t give up. It’s essential that you seek legal help from a car accident attorney.
Your lawyer would gather the evidence, seek surveillance camera footage if necessary, and would collaborate with the police.
