We represent victims of drunk drivers and victims of intoxicated drivers in Metro-Atlanta and throughout the rest of the State of Georgia. Drunk Driving Injury and Intoxicated Driving Injury Cases often are high-value cases, with good reason:

• Due to the disastrous consequences of drunk and drug-impaired driving, Georgia law allows drunk drivers to be punished financially for injuring you or a loved one. We have had enormous success in doing this. A drunk driver may be punished by an award of punitive damages if you can prove that he or she was intoxicated by alcohol, prescription drugs, or illegal narcotics and that intoxication caused the accident and your injuries.

Drunk driving cases often result in much higher verdicts and settlements in Georgia courts than other types of injury cases. However, it's unlikely that an insurance company—whose profits are negatively impacted by paying out large settlements—will tell you that your case may be worth substantially more when attempting to settle your case, unless you have an attorney.

Our lawyers know that if you or a loved one has been hit and seriously injured by a drunk driver, your civil case is very important to you. You need and deserve full legal justice, and our attorneys see that as their mission.

If you decide to take your case to trial, you will have the burden of proving that another driver was under the influence of alcohol or drugs such that their judgment or coordination was impaired. Our plaintiff's attorney's will focus on helping you prove the extent of the impairment of the drunk or intoxicated driver, which is the key to success in your case. It is important to know that it can be more difficult to prove intoxication in cases involving prescription or illegal drugs then in drunk driving cases involving alcohol. We use top expert testimony to assist us in proving our cases.

In Georgia, a spouse, child, or close family member of a victim of a car, truck or motorcycle crash can usually bring a case on behalf of a deceased victim who was killed by a drunk driver or killed by an intoxicated driver. We can immediately help you or a family member identify the proper person, or persons, and bring a case against a drunk automobile or drunk truck driver and, if necessary, establish an estate for the victim to bring the case.

If you or a family member has been the victim of a truck driver who was intoxicated or impaired on prescription or illegal drugs, we can help. Our firm has experience in cases involving large, medium, and small truck accidents caused by truckers using alcohol, prescription drugs, or illegal drugs, including stimulants and marijuana. Our attorneys will begin to investigate your case as soon as we are hired.

Our Atlanta, GA drunk driving lawyers also represent passengers who have been injured or killed by drunk or intoxicated drivers. In many cases a passenger, even if intoxicated him or herself, may have a claim against the impaired driver of the vehicle that he or she was in. Most often, we will investigate your case free of charge and let you know very quickly if we are able to accept your claim, which can then be handled on a contingency basis. In other words, no recovery means no fee.

In Georgia, restaurants, bars, liquor stores and other businesses that serve beer, wine or spirituous beverages can, in some circumstances, be held responsible for serving or selling alcohol to minors or noticeably intoxicated persons. We have successfully handled these cases and are able to investigate your claim at no initial charge. We'll let you know very quickly if we are able to accept your claim, which can then be handled on a contingency basis.

We know that victims of drunk and drug-impaired driving often have serious injuries, and more critical needs than other injury victims. Our lawyers will work hard to help you receive as much compensation as possible from a drunk or impaired driver, trucker, or irresponsible corporation. If you are going to have large future medical bills or will lose future income because of your injuries, our Atlanta injury lawyers will work with your doctors to prove the extent of your future injuries and will hire the experts necessary to prove your future lost income.
