Seattle Drunk Driving Accident Attorney

Have you been injured or have you lost a loved one because of a drunk driver? While the drunk driver will face prosecution and penalties in criminal court, this is only a small part of the consequences that we believe the driver should face. The fact that a drunk driver is facing jail time, community service and driver’s license suspension may be little consolation to the person who has been seriously injured or to the family members who have lost a loved one.

Working with an attorney and filing a lawsuit against a drunk driver in civil court can help ensure that a drunk driver is really brought to justice to the full extent of the law and that he or she has the chance to begin to make amends for his or her actions.

Drunk Driving Accidents in Seattle, Washington

Drunk driving puts people at risk. Even “buzzed driving” leaves a person with reduced mental and physical capabilities. With a slower reaction time, blurred vision and altered mental faculties, a driver is far more likely to become involved in a motor vehicle accident of some kind. And it is far too easy for an innocent person to become the unknowing victim of a drunk driving accident. A drunk driving accident victim may suffer traumatic brain injury, paralysis, internal injuries, spinal cord injuries, broken bones, whiplash, lacerations and even permanent scarring or disfigurement. At times these injuries will require extended or lifelong medical care and will change a person forever.
