Waterbury Drunk Driving Accident lawyer

Drunk Driving and Injury Claims

Car accidents often result in serious damages and injuries, costing a lot of time, money and heartache. Unfortunately in drunk driving accidents, those damages and injuries tend to be a lot more severe and often times result in fatal or catastrophic injuries.

A driver who is intoxicated cannot operate their vehicle in a safe manner. They speed, swerve from lane to lane, run red lights and even drive the wrong way on streets and highways. Reaction time is also affected and they are unable to avoid impacts if they get into trouble. All of these factors can contribute to the severity of injuries to innocent victims in a drunk driving accident. Anyone getting behind the wheel when under the influence is guilty of not only negligence but of having a disregard for human life, and could be held criminally negligent if serious injuries have been the result of their actions.

Protecting Your Rights after a Drunk Driving Accident

In a drunk driving accident case, it is imperative that all the evidence is preserved. It is important that you do not discuss your injuries with an insurance adjuster or other insurance company personnel before you get legal representation. This could lead to a reduced settlement amount. I know how insurance companies operate, and this is a crucial factor in the final resolution of your claim.

No matter the extent of your car accident injuries, you do have rights. You deserve to have someone who will be on your side and will fight for those rights.
