Fortunately, our experiences car accident lawyers at Weston Law Office know how to handle a drunk driver accident case like yours.

Why It’s Important To Hire an Attorney When Hurt By a Drunk Driver

If you are hurt in an accident, because of someone else’s mistake, then it’s smart to look for help. Especially if you are struggling with serious injuries that are directly related to the car accident.

A professional personal injury lawyer can help with this. Usually speeding plays a role in causing a car accident. But it can happen that the at-fault driver won’t admit that they were speeding. Proofing fault can be a very difficult and complicated process. Besides, when  you are recovering from an accident, proofing fault will be the last thing on your mind. Even if the police report identifies speed as a contributing factor, insurance companies might see it differently and won’t give you the money you need.

At Weston Law Office, our car accident lawyers have already recovered millions in settlements and verdicts for accident victims across Minnesota. We will work hard to do the same for you.

We will:

  • Obtain all evidence that is needed to prove that the other driver’s speed caused your accident.
  • Work together with other specialists (such as accident reconstruction specialists) who can provide expert testimony.
  • Negotiate with defense lawyers and insurance companies.
  • Keep you up-to-date with your injury claim and make sure you understand everything.
  • Help you evaluate whether to accept a settlement or proceed to trial.
  • Defend your rights in front of a judge and jury in a personal injury lawsuit if needed.

Get Compensation Beyond Your Insurance Benefits 

Most people think when they are the victim of an accident that their insurance company will cover everything (both the medical expenses and the repairing costs to your car). Sadly, this couldn’t be further from the truth.

As mentioned before, Minnesota is a no-fault state when it comes to accidents involving motor vehicles, such as car accidents or motorcycle accidents. That said, many times your own insurance will not cover all your expenses. Your insurance company doesn’t have your best interest in mind. They won’t care if you are not able to replace all of your income that you’ve lost because of the accident. 

That’s why you should use a professional law office that is experienced with DUI accidents. At Weston Law Office, the client always comes first, and we do whatever it takes to get you the compensation you deserve.

What kind of compensation can I receive?

Every car accident is different. Sometimes people walk away totally unscathed. Other times, they are left with scars or are in need for ongoing medical treatment and therapy.

That’s why the first thing you should do when involved in an accident is search for medical attention. A lot of injuries are not immediately visible and it’s important you don’t wait with this.

Following a car accident in Minnesota, you might be entitled to compensation from negligent parties. Our personal injury team at Weston Law Office will demand all available economic, but also non-economic damages. 

This might include the following:

  • Pain and Suffering
  • Medical Bills
  • Scarring and Disfigurement
  • Rehabilitation
  • Disability
  • Property Damages
  • Lost wages and income

Legal Limits for DUI in Minnesota

Minnesota’s legal alcohol-concentration driving limit is 0.08. Motorists can be arrested for DWI at lower levels. The penalty can vary a lot depending on the case. A typical penalty for a first-time offender can be potential jail time and the loss of your driving license for a minimum of 30 days up to a year.

Always Hold Impaired Drivers Accountable

Personal injuries that are the cause of an impaired driver can be very costly. It can be the cause of a large medical debt. And then we haven’t even talked about other things such as traumatic brain damage, paralysis and severe burns. 

That’s why you should not hesitate to file a claim against an imparied driver who caused your injuries. Criminal charges against people who are at fault and under the influence are definitely helpful, but they do very little to compensate the people that are injured.

If you have been in an accident with an intoxicated driver, you should immediately contact one of our experienced attorneys at Weston Law Office.
