Who Is Responsible for My Losses?
Drivers who get behind the wheel after consuming alcohol are considerably more likely to cause a collision than sober drivers. As a depressant, alcohol can significantly impair a person’s ability to process and react to sensory inputs – an imperative skill while driving. This can cause impaired vision, reduced reaction times, drowsiness, and a feeling of over-confidence behind the wheel, oftentimes resulting in collisions that are far more devastating than other types of car accidents.
Depending on the circumstances of your collision, you may have grounds to press criminal charges against the driver and pursue legal action against both the driver and the party responsible for providing them with alcohol, including social hosts and restaurant or bar owners.
Our car accident attorney can help you pursue compensation for a wide range of damages, including:
- Medical expenses
- Vehicle repairs
- Lost present and future income
- Pain and suffering
- Reduced quality of life
- Wrongful death of a loved one
