DUI Related Accident Attorney San Diego

Our San Diego Legal Professionals will Help You Recover for Injuries Caused in a Drunk Driving Accident

Protecting your rights in a DUI automobile accident claim

When you are involved in a car accident, you may reasonably feel angry and upset. When the other driver is drunk or impaired, you are likely to be even angrier. If you or a loved one suffered a permanent injury, or your family member’s life was taken, dealing with insurance adjusters can easily cause far more frustration than you are ready to handle. Unfortunately, even though you have clearly been wronged, you may have difficulty getting the compensation you deserve.

Sidiropoulos Law Firm, APC has represented victims of car accidents since 1996. Our legal team does not rest until you get the compensation to which you are entitled. While money can never take the place of the use of your limbs damaged in a crash or the life of your loved one taken too soon, we hope to bring you justice against the drunk driver.

Drunk drivers put your life at risk

The National Highway Transportation Safety Administration estimates that someone dies in a drunk driving accident in the United States every 13 minutes. California has the best rate of DUI-related fatalities. The California Office of Traffic Safety reports that alcohol-impaired driving fatalities declined from 924 in 2009 to 791 in 2010, a drop of 14.4 percent and the lowest number of DUI deaths ever. However, for the families who lost their loved ones, 791 people died unnecessarily. Our lawyers have witnessed firsthand the devastation these drunk drivers wreak upon the families of victims injured or killed in DUI wrecks. As we help you recover compensation in your wrongful death claim, we do all we can to bring some comfort to your family after a senseless tragedy.

Recovering compensation from alcohol- or drug-impaired drivers

Unfortunately, many drunk drivers do not carry adequate coverage or they may be completely uninsured, making recovery difficult. Our personal injury lawyers think outside the box to recover the compensation you deserve. Even if the drunk driver has no insurance, the business that sold the drunk driver alcohol may still be held responsible for your damages. If applicable to your case, we go after individuals and businesses that contributed to your incident, including hotels, bars, nightclubs, restaurants and others who improperly served alcoholic beverages to visibly drunk patrons. You may also hold a social host who provided alcoholic beverages to an intoxicated houseguest responsible for the resulting accident.
