Drunk Driving Accidents Home Page
Drunk driving killed more than one thousand people in Alabama during 2007 – and thousands more were seriously injured. If you are among those suffering because of another driver’s reckless and illegal behavior, you already know the damage and destruction drunk drivers leave behind. What you may not know are your rights under Alabama law and how to seek justice from the driver responsible for your injuries.
The Belt Law Firm of Birmingham, AL has nearly 70 years of experience handling personal injury accident cases, including those involving drunk drivers. Our attorneys have recovered millions of dollars for clients throughout the state of Alabama – and we can help you.
Drunk driving is a crime, so any driver convicted of driving while intoxicated will face criminal charges in the court system. However, as a victim, you also have the right to file a personal injury suit against the driver – or others who may be responsible – in order to recover financial compensation for the damage and loss you have suffered.
Holding the driver accountable via the criminal court system is important – but so is your ability to pay for medical bills or make up for lost income, pain and suffering. Injuries caused by drunk driving accidents can be severe and complicated to treat, and you shouldn’t have to bear the financial costs alone.
The Belt Law Firm can help you file a claim for damages by examining the details of your case and determining the most appropriate legal steps, including:
- Filing a claim against the drunk driver’s insurance company.
- Filing a claim against the bar or restaurant who served the driver responsible for your injuries.
- Filing a lawsuit against the insurance policy for a homeowner who provided alcohol to a minor driver responsible for your injuries.
