Hit and Run

All Anaheim Cases Heard at the North Justice Center, 1275 N. Berkeley Ave., P.O. Box 5000, Fullerton, CA. 92838

This crime is not eligible for deferred entry of judgment in Anaheim although a civil compromise is still available as well as other methods of getting the case dismissed.

Although most hit and run cases are minor, Anaheim residents may put pressure on the police to pursue these cases to avoid a mark on their insurance.

Hit and Run occurs when someone has an accident and hits another car or any object and then fails to exchange identifying information or insurance information with the owner of the property. This is normally charged under Vehicle Code Section 20002(a).

Anaheim Hit and Run Lawyer Will Bruzzo has managed to get many hit and run cases dismissed. Often times Mr. Bruzzo manages to get the case dismissed by arranging compensation for the victim with the permission of the Judge and the District Attorney. This is called a civil compromise under penal code sections 1377-1378.

Anaheim Hit and Run Lawyer Will Bruzzo can arrange a civil compromise with the investigating Police Officer or the Judge. It is always better to try and resolve the matter as early as possible so if the police officer is amenable to a civil compromise and the victim is also amenable that can stop the matter from proceeding to the District Attorney’s office and this will keep the client’s record clean.
