California Drunk Driver Accident Lawyers
Drunk driving car accidents are one of America’s biggest issues on the road today, and victims continue to sustain serious injuries or die because of drunk drivers. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), there were a total of 33,808 alcohol-related car accident fatalities in the United States in 2009. Of those fatalities, 950 took place in California. The victims of these accidents and their families deserve justice for the negligence of these drunk drivers.
Punishing Drunk Drivers
Although driving while intoxicated (DWI) and driving under the influence (DUI) are clearly illegal, thousands of negligent individuals choose to drink and operate a vehicle. When these drivers cause alcohol-related car accidents which result in serious personal injuries to other drivers, criminal courts may only punish the drivers without thought for their victims. Fortunately, civil courts allow victims to fight for the justice and compensation they deserve for their injuries.
Fighting for Victims
If you are the victim of a drunk driver and sustained serious injuries, you and your California drunk driver accident lawyers may be able to fight for monetary compensation. After incurring personal injuries from a drunk driving car accident, you may be faced with medical bills, rehabilitation, prescription drug costs, lost wages, and pain and suffering. Our experienced husband and wife team at the Airola Law Offices will fight for compensation to relieve this financial hardship.
Additionally, we may be able to pursue punitive damages for you if the driver who caused the drunk driving car accident was legally intoxicated. These are meant to further punish the negligence of the driver by increasing your compensation and setting a clear example to others.
