Helping Victims of Drunk Drivers
February 2022
When a person drives while intoxicated they not only violate the criminal law, but if they cause injury they are also subject to the civil law. A person injured by a drunk driver finds themselves, through no fault of their own, pulled into two different areas of the justice system. At Herrick & Hart, we have assisted individuals by asserting their rights in the criminal process and representing them in measuring their damages in the civil process. Both processes are complex and an injured person should never go it alone without the help of experienced representation.
If you have been injured due to the negligence of a drunk driver, you should consider contacting Herrick & Hart. We have experience assisting those who have been injured by a drunk driver. A person injured by a drunk driver may have additional claims not available to someone who was injured by a person who was not intoxicated. You will want experienced representation to assist you in evaluating your claim.
