'Driving under the influence' (DUI) , or 'Driving while intoxicated' (DWI), is the term for drunk driving behavior.Driving while drunk is responsible for nearly 1/3 of all traffic deaths in this country. Often these drunk drivers are repeat offenders who cause a heavy burden of death and/or injury to themselves and to innocent drivers, passengers, and pedestrians.

We do not represent drunk drivers

Anyone who causes an accident while driving under the influence of alcohol or another substance can be considered under law to have committed negligence. Unfortunately, this is of little comfort to someone who has an injury or who has lost a loved one in a drunk driving accident. The driver convicted of DUI is responsible to pay for all damages, but may not be the only person considered negligent or liable. Those who provided the alcohol may also be considered negligent and liable for damages. Many states have laws which impose liability on bars, clubs, restaurants, or hotels which supply liquor improperly. In such cases, a business is expected to exercise due care and not to serve anyone who is obviously drunk. Even someone outside of such a business may incur liability for supplying alcohol to a driver who subsequently had an accident.
