Provo Drunken Driver Accident Attorney

Have you been injured by a drunk driver?

Driving when one is intoxicated is clearly a negligent act.  Any intoxicated driver that gets behind the wheel of a motor vehicle potentially puts themselves and others at great risk.  If one is driving with a blood alcohol concentration of .08% or higher they are technically DUI under our state laws.  If a driver is discovered as DUI and involved in an accident they are likely to be arrested on the scene and will face criminal charges.

If you or a loved one was injured in an accident where the driver of the other vehicle was drunk, a Provo car accident attorney should also be consulted.  In cases like this you likely have the right to pursue damages from the negligent party, especially when law enforcement has determined that the drunk driver was the cause of the injury accident.

Even if not at the limit of being legally intoxicated, drugs or alcohol can be a major contributing factor in the occurrence of a motor vehicle accident and this can be a potential focus of an investigation regarding a claim for compensation.
