Pasadena Drunk Driving Accident Lawyers

Representing Victims of Drunk Drivers

It is an unfortunate fact that accidents caused by drunk drivers are increasing in number every single year. As of now, 3% of the six million automobile-related deaths that occur in the U.S. annually involve an intoxicated driver. While these individuals are frequently punished criminally for their illegal conduct, their victims often go without any sort of restitution for the damages sustained. However, it is the legal right of any victim of a drunk driving accident to pursue compensation for their injuries from the negligent individual responsible.

What Happens If You Are Hit by a Drunk Driver?

If you have been hit by a drunk driver, you have several options when it comes to pursuing compensation for your injuries, even if the drunk driver fled the scene of the accident.

Filing An Insurance Claim

If the drunk driver was apprehended at the scene of your accident, you may have success filing an insurance claim against their insurance carrier. If the intoxicated driver was uninsured, or fled the scene of the accident, you may still be able to pursue compensation through your own insurance company's Personal Injury Protection (PIP) plan.

Filing a Personal Injury Claim

If the insurance company is unwilling to negotiate with you or offer a fair settlement, you have a right to pursue a personal injury claim against them to fight for your right to fair compensation in court.

No matter your legal needs, our team of DUI accident attorneys can help to guide you through the lawsuit process and ensure you receive the compensation you deserve.
