As a result, we know what families face after an impaired-driver crash. We pursue full compensation under California law.
Each year, approximately 13,000 fatal drunk driving accidents occur nationwide. In fact, more than one-third of all fatal motor vehicle crashes involve drunk or intoxicated drivers. In addition, over 700,000 people suffer injuries in alcohol-related motor vehicle crashes each year. California consistently ranks among the states with the highest DUI crash totals. Thousands of alcohol-related injury collisions happen across the state annually.
California law prohibits driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol. A driver shows conscious disregard for the safety of others when:
In a civil claim, this conduct typically supports both compensatory damages and punitive damages. As a result, victims can recover additional compensation that punishes reckless behavior.

Drunk driving crashes typically cause more severe injuries than other car accidents — impaired drivers brake later, travel at higher speeds, and drift across lanes or run red lights without warning. The financial impact reaches far beyond the initial ER visit. A complete compensation claim under California law generally includes:
Wrongful death damages: when a loved one does not survive the crash, surviving family members can recover funeral and burial expenses, lost financial support, and loss of love, companionship, and guidance.
After a drunk driving crash, victims face two challenges at once — physical recovery and a legal system that does not pause for healing. Our team handles the legal side from day one so you can focus on getting better. That includes:

Drinking and driving never mix. Every year in the U.S., a third of fatal motor vehicle accidents involve a driver who chose to get behind the wheel under the influence.
Despite widespread public awareness campaigns, many drivers still get behind the wheel after drinking. Alcohol-related crashes injure more than 700,000 people across the country each year. The consequences for victims and their families often last a lifetime.
When a loved one suffers injuries in a drunk driving crash, the impact reaches far beyond physical pain. Medical bills, lost income, and recovery costs can quickly overwhelm a family. Nothing can undo the harm caused by an intoxicated driver. However, an experienced drunk driving accident lawyer can ease the financial strain and help you pursue fair compensation.
Drunk driving accident claims in California require a thorough investigation to prove negligence. A qualified attorney will gather evidence and manage all communications with insurance companies. They will also represent your interests in court. Therefore, working with a dedicated drunk driving accident attorney improves your chances of securing a favorable outcome.

We’ve compiled some common questions to help you better understand your options and rights following a drunk driving accident.
To begin with, a lawyer who handles drunk driving cases knows California DUI law inside and out. As a result, we prove the driver’s negligence, take on the insurance company, and pursue punitive damages on top of regular compensation. Ultimately, you focus on healing while we handle the rest.
Insurance companies are not on your side. In fact, they offer quick, low settlements before you know your true injury costs. However, we negotiate directly, document every loss, and refuse to settle for less. As a result, you will not take a single call from an adjuster.
Most drunk driving cases involve three types of damages:
In addition, California law allows punitive damages in drunk driving cases. These extra damages punish reckless conduct. As a result, they can significantly raise your total recovery.
A drunk driving crash leads to two cases. First, the criminal case against the driver — the State runs that case, and it punishes the driver. Second, the civil case. That is how you recover money for your injuries.
In addition, drunk driving cases also allow punitive damages, while most car accident claims do not. Therefore, it helps to work with a lawyer who handles these cases regularly.
Drunk driving crashes often happen at high speeds and with no warning. This frequently leads to severe, lasting injuries. For example, common long-term effects include:
Therefore, a fair settlement should cover both the physical injuries and the emotional toll. In addition, we work with medical experts to make sure nothing slips through the cracks.
Yes. In fact, lost wages count as part of your claim. For example, if your injuries keep you out of work for weeks or longer, we will include those losses alongside your medical bills. In addition, we also include lost future earnings if your injuries affect your long-term earning ability.
A drunk driving crash can overwhelm even the calmest person. However, these steps matter most:
