Experienced Drunk Driving Accident Las Vegas Lawyers
You Injured by a Drunk Driver?
Being hit by an impaired driver can change your life in an instant. Serious injuries, medical treatment, missed work, vehicle damage, and a difficult recovery can leave you dealing with consequences you never should have had to face. A drunk driving accident can involve much more than a typical car accident claim.
The Courtroom Couple helps victims pursue accountability through the civil claims process while examining evidence from the crash and related investigation.
What Can Strengthen a Drunk Driving Accident Claim?
Drunk driving accidents can generate evidence that may not exist in an ordinary collision. Information from law enforcement, witnesses, the crash scene, and the vehicles involved can help establish what happened and provide important support for your civil injury claim.
- Evidence of Impairment
Available law enforcement records, testing information, observations, and other evidence may help establish the circumstances surrounding the driver’s impairment. - Police Investigation
Crash reports, citations, witness statements, photographs, and information gathered during the investigation may become important evidence. - Crash Scene Evidence
Vehicle damage, photographs, video, roadway evidence, and other information can help establish how the collision occurred. - Medical & Financial Records
Treatment records, medical expenses, missed-work documentation, and other records help demonstrate the impact the accident has had on your life.
What Happens to Your Injury Claim When the Driver Faces Criminal Charges?
A criminal case and a personal injury claim serve different purposes. The government may pursue criminal charges based on the driver’s alleged conduct, while your civil claim focuses on the injuries and losses you suffered because of the collision. Evidence developed during the investigation of the impaired driver may also become important when establishing responsibility in your personal injury case.
The Courtroom Couple focuses on protecting your interests while the other legal proceedings move forward. Kory and Brittany investigate the collision independently, preserve available evidence, follow developments that may affect your civil case, identify applicable insurance coverage, and document the complete impact of your injuries. They then use that evidence to pursue compensation through negotiation or, when necessary, litigation.
