Drunk Driving Car Accidents

Tragically, drunk drivers are responsible for one-in-three deadly car accidents in the United States. Further, an individual is killed in motorcycle accidents, where motorcyclists may be operating under the influence once every 45 minutes. Countless more victims sustain severe personal injuries, which are often life-altering, after an accident with a drunk driver. These include traumatic head injuries, spinal cord injuries, paralysis, severe lacerations and burns, broken arms and legs, and others. Massachusetts is not immune to the problem, as a staggering 40 percent of drivers involved in a fatal car accident tested positive for alcohol in their bodies at the time of the collision. Sadly, statistics show drunk drivers rarely change, as a drunk driving involved in a fatal accident is eight times more likely to have a previous drunk driving conviction. We will hold them accountable for this egregious negligence.

Failure to yield accidents, texting while driving, rollover accidents are some examples. Our attorneys have extensive successful histories negotiating with insurance companies and medical providers. Insurance companies know that the injuries and deaths caused by a drunk driver will establish their clear liability and negligence. As a result, they may try to reach a settlement with you to minimize their loses, disregarding future costs you may face.
