Drunk driving crashes are not only devastating—they are entirely preventable. If you or a loved one has been injured in a collision caused by an intoxicated driver in Laredo TX, Zinda Law Group’s drunk driving accident lawyers are here to help you fight for justice and recover the compensation you deserve.
How Drunk Driving Accidents Happen
When someone gets behind the wheel after drinking, they endanger everyone around them. Common scenarios involving impaired drivers include:
- Head-on collisions from wrong-way driving
- Rear-end accidents at stoplights and intersections
- Failure to yield or stop at traffic signals
- Swerving across lanes or erratic driving
- Excessive speeding or reckless behavior
Injuries Frequently Seen in Drunk Driving Accidents
- Spinal cord injuries and paralysis
- Traumatic brain injuries (TBIs)
- Internal bleeding and organ damage
- Fractures and orthopedic trauma
- Psychological trauma, anxiety, and PTSD
Our Laredo personal injury attorneys are experienced in handling DUI injury claims and will investigate the driver’s actions, obtain the police report, and consult with experts to build a compelling case.
What to Do After a Drunk Driving Crash
- Call 911 and request law enforcement and EMS
- Get medical care right away
- Take photos of the scene, vehicles, and visible injuries
- Collect contact information from witnesses
- Do not give a recorded statement to insurance—contact a lawyer first
Can You Sue a Drunk Driver?
Yes. A criminal DUI case is separate from your right to file a civil lawsuit. In addition to suing the impaired driver, you may be able to pursue a dram shop claim against the bar, restaurant, or venue that overserved them under Texas law.
Types of Compensation Available
- Medical expenses and rehabilitation costs
- Lost wages and reduced earning capacity
- Pain and suffering
- Property damage
