Attorney in Nashville Handling Drunk Driver Accidents

Have you been struck by a Drunk Driver?

Nothing can be worse than driving down the road with your attention fixed on your destination, when out of the blue you are suddenly struck by a drunk driver.  Likely there was nothing you could do to try to avoid this type of accident, as these are normally the worst situations you can find yourself in while driving.  The inebriated party is normally not following traffic laws or posted speed limits, as he is in an impaired condition.  The legal limit in Nashville for being considered DUI (Driving Under the Influence) is .08.  The inebriated driver's alcohol level needs to be documented at that time.  It is vital in these types of accidents that a law enforcement official be called to protect your rights.    An experienced and qualified drunk driver Attorney in Nashville can assist you in preserving those rights.  I have been representing clients against the damages caused by at fault drivers, including drunk drivers, for almost 20 years.  I can guide you through what is needed to present your case for a favorable resolution.

Drunk Driver Lawyer in Nashville

Because of the legal ramifications of being struck by a drunk driver, it is important to document your claim carefully. As your attorney, I will ensure that the witness statements, evidence available at the site of the accident, medical reports, expert reports, accident reports, lab reports, demonstrative medical reports (such as x-rays) and depositions are used to support your claim so that you can achieve a fair settlement or verdict. Oftentimes in serious drunk driver accidents, an investigator and even an accident reconstructionist must be hired to determine speeds and points of impact and what kind of forces impacted your vehicle.  These are all important details that can lead to your personal injuries, lost wages and property damage being fully compensated.  You may well be entitled to monetary compensation for the emotional stress and trauma this type of accident can lead to as well.  I can represent your interests with the care and concern you need following this difficult ordeal.  Contact my office for a free initial consultation.
