At TROLMAN GLASER CORLEY & LICHTMAN, P.C., we have an in-depth understanding of personal injury law and how it applies to alcohol and drug related accidents. If you have been injured by an intoxicated driver, there are times when you may pursue punitive damages in addition to the compensatory damages that are typically sought in a car accident claim. This creates the potential for larger settlements and jury awards for victims of intoxicated drivers.
HAVE YOU BEEN INJURED IN A DRUNK DRIVER CAR CRASH?
At TROLMAN GLASER CORLEY & LICHTMAN, P.C., we have extensive experience helping victims of car accidents, including those who have been injured due to the reckless behavior of those operating their vehicles under the influence of alcohol or drugs. Our primary goal is to secure fair and just compensation for our injured clients.
Pursuing a DUI accident case not only helps accident victims, but serves the interests of the community as a whole. If these careless drivers are punished for what they have done, others prone to such behavior may think twice about taking to the road while under the influence of alcohol or drugs.
The work of organizations such as MADD (Mothers Against Drunk Driving) has accomplished much in the way of creating stiffer fines and penalties for drunk drivers. Our attorneys are dedicated to furthering this work, helping our clients who have been injured and hopefully preventing more such accidents.
DRAM SHOP LIABILITY
In New York, drunk driver car crash victims may also be able to bring a lawsuit against the establishment that served alcohol to the drunk driver. If a bar, tavern, restaurant or even a homeowner continues to serve alcoholic beverages to a person who has clearly had too many, they may be liable for losses suffered by accident victims. We carefully examine every aspect of your case to determine if we can pursue monetary compensation under the law from every possible source.
