Drunk driving crashes are some of the most devastating on New York roads. This is because the injuries and fatalities resulting from impaired driving are entirely preventable, and every driver should know the serious risks of getting behind the wheel after drinking.
At TopDog Law Personal Injury Lawyers, our New York drunk driving accident lawyers are dedicated to protecting the rights of victims and holding drunk drivers accountable for the harm they cause. If you have suffered an injury by a drunk driver, you may suffer from physical pain, emotional stress, and financial hardship. Our New York drunk driving accident lawyers are ready to seek the compensation and justice you deserve.
At TopDog Law Personal Injury Lawyers, our car accident attorneys help individuals following accidents from impaired driving.
We walk our clients through every step of the legal process, from the initial consultation to the final settlement or award in court, fighting for maximum compensation the entire time.
If you believe you have a drunk driving accident claim within New York state, we are the right team to direct you step-by-step through the legal process.
TopDog Law Personal Injury Lawyers are located at 910 E Gun Hill Road, Suite A, Bronx, NY 10469. Call us for your free consultation. We are halfway between the Bronx River Parkway and I-95, northeast of the New York Botanical Garden.
In New York, drivers are considered intoxicated when their blood alcohol concentration (BAC) reaches 0.08 percent or more or when their faculties are too impaired to drive safely.
The limit of blood alcohol content (BAC) for commercial drivers, however, has been set at 0.04 percent. If a driver is below the age of twenty-one years old, then the BAC limit is set at 0.02 percent.
Alcohol can impair a driver’s faculties in many ways, often leading to devastating accidents and injuries. Whether a driver’s BAC was over the legal limit or simply showed signs of intoxication after the crash, they should be responsible for covering losses from any serious injuries you suffered.
To show liability for drunk driving car accidents, victims must prove that the driver was drunk and that this negligence ultimately led to the collision. A police report can help establish this fact, as well as statements made by witnesses.
Video surveillance and a positive Breathalyzer test can also be helpful for this purpose. Our New York drunk driving accident lawyers from TopDog Law gather substantial evidence to prove these cases and obtain compensation in your favor.
If you have been in an accident with a drunk driver, you should have a car accident lawyer immediately inform your insurance company about the crash. In such situations, you need legal assistance for these communications.
Whether you are dealing with your own insurer or the other driver’s company, have a professional handle the calls and protect your future compensation.
Damages in drunk driving accidents differ depending on factors like the nature of the injuries, costs of treatment, lost income, and pain and suffering.
Our NY drunk driving accident attorneys can accurately calculate your losses and demand the proper amount from insurers so you are not left with a financial burden.
We will also negotiate for a fair settlement and, if the insurer does not make a favorable offer, can file a lawsuit in New York civil court.
In most cases, you will have three years from the date of an accident to file a lawsuit. Failure to meet this deadline may lead to losing your right to compensation. Our attorneys always identify the time frame you have to file a lawsuit.
While most auto accident lawsuits settle at some point during negotiations, others may end up going to trial. Our drunk driving accident lawyers have courtroom experience in case a trial is necessary to obtain full compensation to cover your losses.
You are welcome to get in touch with TopDog Law Personal Injury Lawyers anytime with your questions before or after your free case review.
Below are some common frequently asked questions;
As a passenger, you can make claims against the driver for injuries and damages suffered, provided they were at fault in the accident.
You can still receive compensation from your own insurer if the intoxicated motorist lacks coverage or lacks sufficient coverage under uninsured/underinsured motorist policy provisions.
No limits apply for compensation in New York State’s car accident-related lawsuits. What you receive will depend upon many factors – injury severity, collection and preservation of evidence, eyewitness testimonies, and the police report. This makes consulting an attorney necessary. They can determine the maximum compensation in your case.
Again, what you receive in a New York drunk driving accident claim will depend on the extent of your injuries, your prognosis, the amount of evidence supporting your claim, and the ability of your lawyer to negotiate or argue your case.
That is why you need to refer to a top legal firm like TopDog Law Personal Injury Lawyers. Ensure experienced and skilled lawyers who regularly handle New York drunk driving accident claims support you.
The length of time it will take for your case to close will depend on its complexity and the cooperativeness of the other party. While some cases settle quickly, others may linger. Your attorney will expedite the process while making sure you receive maximum compensation.
