California law mandates that driving while under the influence of drugs or alcohol is negligent driving, automatically putting that person at fault for accidents or injuries. If you have been involved in an automobile accident where the other driver was driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol, and you or someone in the vehicle has been seriously injured, you may have a case. Our team may be able to help you to recover compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, and other expenses related to the injuries.

According to California Department of Alcohol & Drug Programs statistics, released in August of 2011:

• In 2008, out of 3,434 people killed in traffic accidents state-wide, 1,355 of these were a result of alcohol or other drugs.
  
• There were 28,463 alcohol related injuries in 2008, and 214,811 arrests for DUI in California.
  
• 204,332 licenses were suspended as a result of "admin per se," the program implemented in 1990 requiring mandatory driver's license suspension law for drunk drivers.

If someone you love was killed by a drunk driver, our attorneys can help surviving family members or the estate of the deceased file a wrongful death claim against the drunk driver. Wrongful death lawsuits may be able to recover compensation for medical bills, loss of wages, funeral costs, loss of future gains, loss of benefits, even loss of love and companionship.

Automobile accidents can cause soft tissue injuries, which do not show up right away, and can be permanently disabling. It is especially important in the instance of a drunk driving related accident to obtain experienced legal representation in order to better your chances of being financially compensated for your injuries, treatments, and pain and suffering.
