Legal Question in Personal Injury in Nevada

DUI hit & run

I was just the victim of a DUI hit & run and the suspect was caught. What do I do if he doesn't have insurance and mine doesn't cover the damage to my vehicle, time off from work, and medical bills?

Lost on what to do in las vegas.

Thanks !

Re: DUI hit & run

Two primary options: 1) sue the DUI driver, get a judgment and then try to collect by garnishing any wages or other assets of the DUI driver you can locate. This may require some chasing. 2) You may have uninsured motorist insurance with your own policy to pay for this. You should check the policy. There may be other options depending on the detailed facts of the case.
