In 2008, over a staggering 1,400 fatalities happened on Georgia roadways, and a third of the fatalities were caused by alcohol-impaired drivers. Also, 50%-75% of DUI drivers whom license were suspended in that same year continued to drive in Georgia.
Recovering from a DUI injury can be a painful, grueling, and expensive process: medical bills, lost wages, and endless doctor appointments. Your loss can also negatively impact the people who love you most, your family. And, they may have a claim against the negligent, DUI driver as well.
Even if your injuries are not to a great extent, settlements and jury verdicts can be significantly larger than accident settlements not involving a DUI driver. If you have been hurt in an accident caused by a careless, senseless DUI driver, be sure to seek legal counsel. You will need to know your rights, what you're entitled too, and how to best handle your claim with the insurance companies. You will most likely need professional assistance in dealing with the at fault DUI driver's insurance company and attorney(s), and you will also want a team who is seasoned in DUI injury claims to assist you in getting your car fixed, getting the right medical treatment, documenting all the facts on your DUI claim, and negotiating your settlement.
