If you or someone you love suffered severe injuries in a Florida traffic accident caused by a drunk driver, you can hold that drunk driver accountable, even if he or she is never criminally prosecuted. Please contact an experienced Sarasota, Fort Lauderdale, or Boca Raton attorney as soon as possible.

According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, in 2009 almost a third of all traffic crash fatalities involved alcohol impairment. Each such accident left devastated families grieving in its wake. While any traffic accident that leads to physical injuries or wrongful death is a tragedy, when the harm is caused by a drunk driver, the pain of the victims or the survivors is magnified by the knowledge that the tragedy need not have happened.

If you were hurt by a drunk driver's recklessness, you may seek compensation for your resulting medical bills, pain and suffering, property damage, and more. In addition, you may request punitive damages designed to punish outrageous conduct and to deter similar conduct in the future. The victims of drunk drivers may therefore protect others, even as they pursue their own rights.

If you were injured in a drunk driving incident in Palm Beach County, Broward County, or Sarasota County and are considering seeking compensation for your injuries, please contact The Law Offices of Jamie L. Allen, P.A., for a free consultation. We can also help if someone you love was killed by a drunk driver and you are considering filing a wrongful death claim.
