In most car accidents, the first step in securing compensation is determining who was at fault. When drunk drivers are involved in an accident, there is a presumption that, because they were drunk, they were at fault. The main focus of a personal injury case involving a drunk driver then becomes proving the extent of the victim's injuries rather than who was responsible.
Focusing on the injuries suffered and proving the impact those injuries have had on the victim requires a great deal of familiarity with medical evidence and how to present it in a way that effectively communicates not just what the doctors have to say about the injuries suffered, but also how those injuries have changed your life.
Many times, the injuries suffered in car accidents require extensive rehabilitation. During the rehabilitation period:
- You may be unable to work.
- You may need to be attended to by a professional caregiver.
- You may be unable to fulfill your responsibilities to your family.
All of these issues need to be addressed and doing so can be costly. You need to ensure that you have the compensation necessary to help you overcome these challenges. Let one of our skilled attorneys help you secure just compensation for your injuries.
