The Facts About Your Washington State Hit
and Run Criminal Charge
A Washington State hit and run criminal
charge can lead to very severe consequences.
You should take the charge seriously, as the
prosecutor and the courts are sure to do so.
A conviction for a Washington hit and run
criminal charge can result in jail time,
expensive fines, a mandatory license
suspension, requirements to pay restitution,
and lengthy probation periods. This doesn’t
even take into account the heavy toll it can
take on your life, your family, and even
your employment.
Generally speaking, a Washington State hit
and run criminal charge is the result of a
person causing damage to someone else’s
property or to another person, and then
leaving the scene
of the
accident before attempting to contact the
police or the property owner. A Washington
hit and run charge can be a felony or a
misdemeanor, depending on a variety of
factors.
