Have you or a loved one, been seriously injured or even killed as a result of a car crash in which the other driver was intoxicated. If so, can you hold the bar owner or restaurant owner who overserved them accountable?
Hi, I’m Brad Parker, the attorney you want but hope you never need, and this is another edition of Bar Talk.
If you’ve been involved in a car crash and been seriously injured or a loved one has even been killed, you wonder whether or not the bar owner or restaurant owner who overserved them can be held accountable. The short answer is yes—there are laws to go after the bar owner, but they can be very difficult. There are many, many exceptions that protect the bar owner. In order to navigate these legal waters, it’s very important that you hire someone who is knowledgeable and skilled and has the experience in handling these type of cases—which are called Dram Shop cases.
Over the four decades that I’ve been practicing law, I’ve handled numerous of these types of cases and have been quite successful for my clients. In fact, we are honored to be listed as one of only two North Texas law firms on the Mothers Against Drunk Driving’s website. If you or a loved one have suffered a serious injury or even death because of a drunk driver, please give us a call for a free consultation. I’d be honored to consult with you.
