We offer a free consultation with a Las Vegas criminal defense attorney to discuss your particular matter.

Driving on the roads today, it’s easy to see how auto accidents frequently occur. Traffic in Las Vegas can be overwhelming, particularly with the number of pedestrians, taxis and other vehicles on the strip and in the surrounding areas in particular. Regardless of whether the other person was at fault, every driver must stop after an accident and exchange insurance and contact information with the other driver. This applies whether only property damage was caused or if someone was injured. If the driver is unconscious or is too injured to exchange information, this is a valid excuse. Willfully and intentionally leaving the scene of an accident causing property damage or injury, however, is a crime. You may face immediate arrest and either misdemeanor or felony criminal charges.

It is important to seek legal counseling from an experienced and qualified lawyer if you or someone you know has been accused of or arrested for a hit and run accident. You need to fully understand your rights and your legal options so you have the opportunity to avoid a conviction and serious criminal penalties.
