Who Is Liable When You Are Hit by a Drunk Driver?

Not only is the drunk driver held accountable for your pain and suffering — the bar, social host, or restaurant who supplied the driver with alcohol may also be responsible. Drunk driving accident lawsuits are complex, and other people may have some responsibility for the accident. Unfortunately, what we’ve seen time and time again is that drunk driving victims tend to experience much more severe and debilitating injuries than other car accident victims. Sober, but distracted or careless, drivers usually take evasive action to lessen the severity of a wreck, but a drunk driver is too impaired to do this. 

Our clients often come to us with these types of devastating and painful injuries:

• Strains, sprains, and slow-healing soft tissue injuries
• Airbag- or seatbelt-related injuries
• Broken collarbones and arms that prevent them from working or fulfilling family responsibilities
• Spinal injuries
• Concussions and traumatic brain injuries
• Hemorrhages
• Herniated disks and whiplash
• Femoral head fractures
• Shoulder injuries
• Wrist fractures
• Wrongful death

If a drunk driver killed a family member of yours, we can help to obtain a settlement for you and your loved ones.

When our clients come to us with these types of serious injuries, they’re often buried under a pile of mounting medical bills and are in a panic about how much more work they are going to miss while they heal. We can’t tell you how long it will take for your injuries to heal, but we can put a stop to the bill collectors. When you file a claim against a negligent driver, we will negotiate with your medical providers, so they won’t send unpaid bills to collection.

You’re entitled to a multitude of damages under Oregon law if you been hit and injured by a drunk driver, which may include compensation for pain and suffering, lost wages, decreased quality of life, negligent infliction of emotional distress, loss of consortium, medical bills, and more.

Don’t make the mistake of trying to negotiate with the insurance company alone. Their job is to give you the least amount of money they can for the drunk driver’s negligence and reckless behavior.
