What is Dram Shop Liability?
Our Conroe & Montgomery County Personal Injury Attorney Explains
There are a large number of accidents and injuries caused by drunk drivers
every year. Unfortunately, these accidents can be prevented, but often
are not prevented due to poor judgment. When a bar, or other business
where alcohol is served, allows an already visibly intoxicated individual
to purchase more alcoholic beverages, they could be held liable for any
ensuing accidents or injuries that occur due to the drunk driver.
Ted Ruemke's
legal experience spans over 30 years, and he understands how to approach dram shop liability cases. These types
of claims can often be difficult to prove, but we have the skills it takes
to find the evidence needed to secure compensation on your behalf.
If you were injured in an accident involving dram shop liability, you must
prove the following:
- The driver bought alcohol from the establishment
- You have injuries as a result of the accident
- The sale of alcohol was a contributing factor in the accident
We Fight for Justice on Your Behalf
It is not easy to deal with dram shop liability claims, and there are certain
things you must understand when approaching a claim of this nature. While
holding an establishment responsible for the accident can help you claim
compensation, it may not cover the entire amount and could be found for
partial liability. This is why
we offer you a free consultation so we can discuss your accident and determine which parties - single or
multiple - from which to seek compensation.
Allow our firm to help you move forward in your case.
