When you have Bobby Jones as your lawyer, we take care of the legal aspects of your case, seeking your payment and protecting your rights.
Liability of Bars, Restaurants, and Social Hosts for Drunk Driving Accidents
The drunk driver is always to blame for their actions. Sometimes, there are also third parties that have enabled the drunk driver, like a bar, restaurant, or tavern that overserved the driver. A social host may have given alcohol to someone under 21.
When you bring a drunk driving claim, third parties can be named as defendants. South Carolina law prohibits the sale of alcohol to an intoxicated person. It also prohibits giving alcohol to someone under 21. Bars and restaurants must have at least $1 million in liability insurance if they sell alcoholic beverages that are consumed on their premises. The insurance can pay a victim if overserving leads to a drunk driving accident.
As your lawyer, we investigate the underlying causes of the drunk driving crash and third parties that may have fault, including bars and restaurants. If appropriate, we name third parties in your claim and seek payment through insurance policies that may apply.
Drunk Driving Accidents and the Impact of a Criminal DUI Conviction
The driver is being charged with DUI – isn’t that enough?
If the drunk driver is facing criminal charges, that’s a good thing. They can face consequences in criminal court, and the police investigation may assist you. If they are convicted or if they enter a guilty plea, it may be conclusive of their intoxication.
However, you still have important work to do to be fairly compensated as the victim. A criminal case alone doesn’t fairly compensate you. Restitution is limited. There is no possibility of an insurance claim or third-party liability that may provide significant compensation. You can’t control the criminal case or its outcome, but you are in control of a civil case.
At your consultation, we can discuss a drunk driving accident civil claim, how it’s different than criminal charges, and why a civil case is important to protect your rights.
The driver isn’t being charged criminally – can I still claim for a drunk driving accident?
You can’t control whether the solicitor chooses to file criminal charges. Fortunately, compensation for a drunk driving accident doesn’t depend on whether criminal charges are filed. It also doesn’t depend on the outcome of the charges.
Even if the drunk driver is never charged criminally, you may be fully compensated as a drunk driving accident victim.
You can – and you must – file a civil drunk driving case to truly get the compensation that you deserve. The police investigation and prosecution of the case can help, but it doesn’t determine your rights. Lawyer Bobby Jones can build on any police investigation and make sure your interests are fully protected.
