Cases involving a client being hit by a drunk driver are some of the most serious injury cases we get in our office because when a driver is driving drunk, the speeds driven and actions taken are more extreme causing more extreme injuries. The serious injuries may include traumatic brain injury, amputation and spinal cord injury.
If you were hit by a drunk driver, that person may:
- be arrested for drunk driving
- be prosecuted criminally
- have their license revoked
It does not mean that they will be ordered to pay for the injuries they caused or pain and suffering, medical expenses, wage loss or other damages. If you have suffered injury or loss because you were hit by a drunk driver, you will need a Minnesota personal injury attorney to handle a civil case in order to obtain compensation.
Pritzker Olsen attorneys pursue at-fault drunk driver cases aggressively. The drunk driver’s insurance company is in the difficult position of having to defend a person who negligently and recklessly went out, got drunk and then got into a car, had an accident and hurt somebody.
With the help of medical and financial experts, we determine fair and needed compensation. Then we apply pressure to the insurance company to resolve the claim fairly and quickly.
