A new client of ours was seriously injured by a hit and run driver at approximately 2:30 am, November 8, 2009, in the city of Long Beach. This case made it to our “Case of the Week” section because of an interesting twist. The driver of the vehicle that hit our client was also a criminal and has yet to be apprehended. The driver ran from scene because they were driving an “allegedly” stolen car. What makes this matter even worse is that our client would not have been injured at all had the “owner” of the vehicle not left his/her keys in the ignition. This one is going to get interesting. Thoughts??? We’ll keep you updated!
