If I am injured by a drunk driver do I have any rights?

Although drunk drivers may be criminally prosecuted, the punishment in criminal court does not make up for the serious impact on the victims and their families who may suffer devastating injuries, lost wages, and lost financial support. Families affected by drunk driving may have claims against the driver and, in addition, possibly against the tavern or other establishment where the liquor was served. If you or a family member has been injured by a drunk driver, Lipsitz & Ponterio can provide you with the representation that you need.
