A driver under the influence of alcohol can cause a serious, or even deadly, accident. Even after consuming just a small amount of alcohol, a driver can engage in risk-taking behavior behind the wheel; and may experience impaired judgment, dulled reflexes, and blurred vision.
If you have been injured in a drunk driving accident, you understand the lifelong impact one person’s decision to drink and drive can have on others. We do, too. At John Bales Attorneys, we have zero tolerance for drunk drivers.
You may have sustained serious physical or emotional injuries; and may be unable to work as a result of someone else’s poor judgment. In addition to lost wages, you may also find yourself with a number of bills—including those for emergency room and doctor’s visits, physical therapy, or expensive car repairs. As you struggle with the continued physical and financial repercussions of the drunk driving accident, you may even feel re-victimized.
