Tried And True Attorneys Standing Up For The Injured Since 1965

Losses experienced in drunk driving accidents may be compensable

On Behalf of | Sep 26, 2016 | Drunk Driving Accidents |

Auto collisions occur every day on New Jersey roads. While many of these accidents are relatively minor in nature, there are those that result in significant losses to victims and — in the event of fatality — their surviving family members. This is particularly true in cases involving drunk drivers. Those who have been negatively affected by drunk driving accidents may be entitled to seek compensation for their losses.

Sadly, despite state laws, drunk or otherwise impaired driving is still a very real issue in New Jersey. When an intoxicated driver makes the choice to get behind the wheel, he or she is putting numerous lives at risk. Drunk drivers can often be seen speeding, crossing into oncoming traffic or committing various other moving violations. Unfortunately, other drivers are given little time to react to their erratic behavior, resulting in collisions

Those who do survive severe car accidents are often left dealing with significant physical, financial and emotional hardships. The family members of those who do not survive can also be left handling many of the same challenges. In either case, the losses experienced are nothing that should have to be shouldered alone.
