About Drunk Driving Accidents

Santa Clarita Car Accident Lawyer

When a person operates a motor vehicle while under the influence of alcohol or drugs, his or her normal abilities will be impaired. Reaction time will be affected, as will a driver's ability to accurately assess a potentially hazardous situation and act accordingly. In many cases, a driver will simply be unable to drive a car safely. When drunk drivers take to the road, they put themselves and everyone around them in immediate danger of serious injury. All it takes is running a red light, speeding or not noticing another vehicle to cause a catastrophic car accident that results in injury or even death to drivers and passengers alike.

Fortunately, victims of DUI accidents in California have the legal right to file personal injury claims against those who caused their injuries. At the R. Rex Parris Law Firm, we offer experienced and aggressive representation to clients throughout the Santa Clarita Valley (including in Valencia, Saugus, Newhall and Santa Clarita) who have been injured or have lost a loved one because of a drunk driver's carelessness. If you think you may have grounds for a claim, we offer a free consultation with a Valencia personal injury lawyer to discuss your unique case.

Drunk drivers will face criminal charges for their actions, particularly when they cause auto accidents that result in injury to others. However, this just isn't enough. What of all the medical bills you are facing and the emotional trauma you have endured because of this driver's conduct? That is where your rights to a civil suit come into play. A drunk driving accident attorney at our firm can meet with you to talk about filing a civil lawsuit that will enable you to seek financial compensation for the physical and emotional injuries you have suffered. Although this cannot entirely eradicate an accident from your memory and life, it can help you rebuild and recover.
