An alcoholic drink next to pills

A single bad decision can destroy a life. One more round at the bar. One drive home that never should’ve happened. In an instant, someone else’s choice to drink and drive can leave you or a loved one facing broken bones, brain injuries, or worse.

At Dayson Shalabi Burkett Law Firm, LLC (DSB Law Firm), we know the cost of drunk driving crashes. We’ve sat with families who lost their breadwinner. We’ve met parents who spend every night at the hospital, hoping their child wakes up. These aren’t just “accidents.” They’re choices, and someone must be held accountable. A drunk driving accident lawyer from DSB Law Firm will work on your behalf to ensure you have someone fighting for your rights if a drunk driver injures you.

What We See in Drunk Driving Accident Cases

Every crash tells its own story. Some involve head-on collisions on rural roads. Others happen at stoplights when a driver passes out behind the wheel.

Our drunk driving accident lawyers have represented:

  • A mother was hit while driving her kids home
  • A worker whose small sedan was crushed by another vehicle after a driver “only had a few.”
  • Families are planning funerals because someone else ignored the law.

The fallout is massive. Medical bills stack up. Paychecks vanish. Life feels split into “before” and “after.”

Filing a Drunk Driving Accident Lawsuit

When you file a lawsuit, it’s not just about money. It’s about standing up to reckless behavior. It’s about saying: this should never happen again.

Here’s what we do for our clients in drunk driving accident cases:

  • Investigate the driver’s action that night, from bar receipts to toxicology reports.
  • Identify bars and restaurants who overserved the drunk driver.
  • Work with experts to prove the full cost of the crash — physical, emotional, and financial.
  • Push for punitive damages when possible, to punish dangerous choices and deter others.

You focus on recovery and your family. We handle the fight.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • How do I find a drunk driving accident lawyer near me?

    Choose someone with experience in serious injury and wrongful death claims — not just fender-benders. Local knowledge matters, too. A lawyer who knows the courts and the tactics insurers use can be in a stronger position to protect you.

  • What does drunk driving accident compensation usually cover?

    It often goes beyond hospital bills. Compensation can include months or years of lost income, future rehab costs, and damages for emotional trauma. It could also include “punitive” damages which punishes the drunk driver and attempts to deter others from drinking and driving.

  • What are the consequences of a drunk driving accident?

    The driver faces criminal charges — DUI convictions, license suspension, and sometimes prison. But for victims, the consequences cut deeper: permanent injuries, financial stress, and broken families.
