San Jose DUI Accident Lawyer

Have you been injured by a drunk driver?

Driving drunk puts other drivers at risk and has no justification. Why didn't the driver abstain, or if he had to drink, let someone else drive or hire a taxi?  If you have been in an auto accident with such a driver, you have a right to compensation for all of your losses and likely for punitive damages to punish the other driver for his criminal negligence. You are urged to contact a personal injury lawyer in San Jose who is intent on making DUI drivers and their insurance companies pay in full for your loss.

Determining Responsibility in a DUI Accident

The driver is responsible of course, but there are others. A bartender who continues to serve a driver after he has clearly had too many and then lets the driver drive home is just as guilty. A truck company who knowingly hires a driver with a drug or alcohol problem is also accountable and may be sued.  

What damages are owed to a victim?

The victim of a DUI accident is deserves to be compensated for damages which include:

• Ambulance, hospital, medical and nursing expenses
• Loss of income, present and future
• Property damage
• Rehabilitation expenses
• Pain and suffering
• Punitive damages

If a family member is killed in the accident, the family may bring an action for wrongful death to recoup medical expenses, funeral and burial expenses and loss of comfort and support.
