Broward County Drunk Driving Accident Attorneys

Pursuing Compensation for Victims & Their Families

Approximately 10,000+ people are killed in a drunk-driving accident. This accounts for approximately 30% of traffic-related crashes. Additionally, millions more are arrested for driving under the influence and subsequently charged with a crime.

These individuals pose an incredible risk to everyone on the road. Many are first-time offenders; even if they intend not to cause harm, getting behind the wheel while impaired by alcohol is already a careless action—and it is important that they are held accountable for the pain and suffering victims experience after being hit by a drunk driver.

Drunk driving accidents are considerably more complex than many forms of car accidents, as a drunk driver is almost always considered at-fault.

The victims, especially families of a loved one who has passed, have the right under Florida law to pursue financial compensation for the loss and even ask for punitive damages to reprimand the driver.
