Hit & Run

The Cochran Firm

Hit & run is an illegal act that occurs when a driver collides with another driver, pedestrian or property and drives away from the scene without checking on possible victims or calling police.  After a motor vehicle accident occurs, drivers are responsible for stopping their vehicles and identifying themselves to other people who are involved in the accident.  Even if a driver did not strike another person, but managed to crash into property, the driver is responsible for reporting the accident or else he/she may be charged with hit & run by Texas law enforcement should he/she be caught at a later time.  

Hit & Run Lawyers

If you have been charged with hit & run in Dallas, Texas, you should hire a criminal defense lawyer who has extensive experience defending others who have been charged with this serious offense.  When you are charged with hit & run, you may have to spend time in jail if you are convicted, which is a completely devastating thought for most people.  The only way you will be able to avoid jail time is if you obtain a verdict of “not guilty” or are able to get prosecutors to reduce or dismiss your criminal charges.  These are outcomes that are unlikely unless you have a skilled Dallas criminal defense lawyer handling your hit & run case.
