Georgia DWI/DUI Victim Attorneys
Experienced Atlanta Auto Accident Lawyers Willing to Fight for Your Rights
Drunk driving accident cases begin with the complexities and confusing questions that often accompany auto accidents. Whose fault was the accident? How did it happen? How do insurance policies apply? And how severe are injuries and what is the value of the case?
Drunk driving accidents also involve additional legal complications. For instance, a bar or private host can often be held responsible through dram shop laws. Dram Shop laws hold bars and at-home hosts responsible when they negligently over-serve others. Dram Shop laws often allow for additional defendants and additional insurance coverage and compensation.
