Hit-And-Run Accident Injuries 5, Including 3 Pedestrians

A hit-and-run accident on the city's Near North side early Sunday morning injured three pedestrians as well as two passengers in a taxi.

The hit-and-run vehicle was heading east on Division when it struck a taxi with two passengers, drove a bit further and struck another taxi. It is unclear which vehicle hit the pedestrians, but three pedestrians were also injured in the course of the accident.

The unidentified vehicle fled the scene. Police said some surveillance videos may hold some information and the videos were being reviewed.

Making a personal injury claims always involve no fees to the person who has received the accident injury as all legal costs should be paid by the third party should the compensation claim be successful. In the event that your accident injury claim is un-successful most injury solicitors will have already agreed to a no win no fee arrangement with the personal accident victim they are representing - whether this is through a legal insurance policy depends on the injury lawyers own standards of practice. Not all accident claims can have this no fees arrangement, but these tend to include only personal injuries that have occurred from medical negligence as the compensation claims process in these types of injury accidents is lengthy and sometimes speculative.According to me there should be high charge of the compensation claim for the hit and run accidents cases as if the accident have been on the places where there is no vehicle or other facilities available then it could be sometimes risky.
