Understanding Drunk Driving Accidents in New York City
In New York City, the impact of drunk driving accidents is felt deeply within our communities. With bustling streets and a vibrant nightlife, the risk of intoxicated driving increases, leading to devastating consequences for innocent victims. Local resources, such as the New York Police Department and the Department of Health, work tirelessly to combat this issue, but the reality is that accidents still occur, leaving families to cope with the aftermath.
Victims often face overwhelming challenges, from mounting medical expenses to the emotional toll of recovery. In neighborhoods like Brooklyn and Queens, where public transportation may not always be a viable option, the need for reliable transportation can lead to increased vulnerability on the roads. The financial strain of lost wages due to injuries can be particularly acute in areas with a high cost of living, making it essential to seek compensation for your losses.

We are committed to helping you navigate the complexities of your claim and to providing the support you need during this challenging time.

Injuries Caused by Drunk Drivers
Intoxicated driving is not something that should be taken lightly. We give our clients the power to hold drunk drivers accountable because we know just how reckless drinking-and-driving really is. In fact, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration estimates that about 30% of all fatal car accidents are caused by an intoxicated or drug-impaired driver.
Injuries often reported in serious drunk driving accidents include:
Are Drunk Driving Convictions an Admission of Guilt?
You have been hit by a drunk driver, who is arrested, charged, tried, and convicted of a DUI and related crimes. Does their conviction mean that you will automatically win your drunk driving claim against them? As unusual as it might seem, the answer is ‘no’ because criminal courts are separate from civil courts.
If you want deserved compensation from a drunk driver who hit you, then you have to file a civil claim against them – and you should prepare to go to court to see the matter to the end. While a criminal conviction does not prove liability outright, it is a powerful piece of evidence when placed into the right hands. Choose our New York DUI accident attorneys to represent you, and we can find a way to best utilize the drunk driver’s DUI conviction.
