When you or a loved one is the victim of a drunk or drugged driver you need an aggressive lawyer to make them pay for what they have done to you in Charlottesville, Albemarle County, Louisa County, Fluvanna County, Augusta County, Nelson County, Buckingham County, Madison County, Waynesboro, Staunton, Orange County, Greene County, and Culpepper, Virginia.
Drunk drivers are the leading cause of deaths on U.S. roads. Drunken drivers killed more than 10,000 people in 2009. In the past twenty years drunk driving has caused over a quarter of a million deaths. In addition, about ten percent of the people in the U.S. recently admitted to being drunk behind the wheel in the past year.
To reduce these drunken driving related deaths and injuries the punishment must be certain. There must be criminal and civil penalties that await the drunken and drugged drivers. The state punishes the offender for the criminal actions and we need aggressive application of this punishment. The victim, or the decedent’s family, controls the civil punishment. This is where an aggressive lawyer comes into play. The aggressive lawyer will pursue the drunken drivers’ assets, both insurance and other assets, to make them pay for the harm they have caused. These drunken and drugged drivers must be stopped from killing and injuring other people, including their own passengers.
They must be attacked from all sides and know they will suffer criminally and in their pocketbook. If you have been injured, or suffered a tragic loss in your family, please let our aggressive lawyers help you on the civil side of the punishment.
