Dram Shop Liability — Holding People Who Serve Alcohol Liable
Many people do not realize that a person or business knowingly serving alcohol to an intoxicated individual could also be held liable for injuries that person causes. Dram shop laws may be complicated, but it is important to keep in mind that you may be able to collect from these sources in addition to any compensation from the driver him or herself.
Under dram shop laws, a bartender, server, restaurant or individual who serves alcohol to an obviously intoxicated person might be legally liable for any injuries caused in a drunk driving accident. Many eating and drinking establishments carry insurance that covers dram shop liability.
It is important to pursue all avenues of recovery after you are injured in a serious drunk driving / DWI accident. As an experienced personal injury attorney, I understand the various parties who may be liable for your injuries.
