All Huntington Beach Cases heard at the West Justice Center, 8141 13th Street, Westminster, CA 92683-4576

Huntington Beach Hit and Run Lawyer Will Bruzzo has successfully represented many clients in hit and run cases in Huntington Beach. Many times, Huntington Beach police suspect an effort to hide alcohol intoxication when someone involved in an auto accident leaves the scene without calling the police. That is why it is important that the client NOT talk to the police after a hit and run and instead hire a lawyer to speak with the police.

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).

Huntington Beach 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.

Huntington Beach 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.
