Drunk Driving Accident Lawyer Stonecrest, GA

Get Compensation And Justice With Our Stonecrest, GA Drunk Driving Accident Lawyer

Despite all the dangers of drinking and driving, every year, thousands of people get behind the wheel after a few adult beverages. The legal limit for alcohol consumption in Georgia is 0.08%, the equivalent of just a couple of drinks in an hour, but these couple of drinks can significantly impair a driver’s ability to safely control their vehicle. Drunk driving accidents leave the victims devastated; injuries can be permanently disabling. Some accidents are fatal. If you or someone you love has been injured in a drunk driving accident, you may be entitled to a hefty settlement from the at-fault intoxicated driver.

Taking Civil Action After A Drunk Driving Accident

Getting behind the wheel after drinking is an intentionally negligent act, and in every case (with rare exceptions), the drunk driver can be held liable for the damages they cause. Victims usually suffer serious injuries, with high medical bills, a damaged or totaled vehicle, and facing days or weeks of missed work, with no income, while they recover from their injuries. The drunk driver is liable for all these losses, plus your pain and suffering and emotional trauma.

Our attorneys help you demand full and fair compensation after the wreck. We collect evidence to prove that the other driver was above the legal limit for alcohol consumption when the accident happened and, therefore, owes you compensation.

You are entitled to collect the full amount of your curative medical care, including a hospital stay, physical therapy to help you regain your abilities, and consideration for future medical needs (such as complications). You can also claim all lost wages from the time you missed work, even if you used your PTO or sick leave.

DUI accident plaintiffs are also entitled to fair compensation for the emotional trauma they experienced and the pain and suffering of their injuries. If you become disabled due to your accident injuries, we also seek compensation for that. While no amount of money can erase the aftermath of a terrifying drunk driving accident, the settlement you receive can help you recover and rebuild your life.

Skilled Legal Advocacy For DUI Accident Victims

Despite the drunk driver’s fairly obvious liability, some victims have difficulty getting fair compensation after the wreck. Maybe the driver’s insurance company undervalues the extent of your losses, or perhaps the drunk driver claims that they weren’t drinking, which can cause issues with proving negligence. When you work with our Stonecrest drunk driving accident lawyer, you can relax and let us handle building your claim, negotiating with the insurance company, and guiding you through the Georgia civil justice system. Your interests are our interests, and at Andrew R. Lynch, P.C., we’re dedicated to protecting your rights. Call us today for a free consultation.
