Filing a Civil Lawsuit in California

In California, more than 30,000 people are injured in alcohol or drug-related traffic accidents every year. While drunk drivers can be brought to justice in criminal court, this does nothing to compensate the victims of these devastating car accidents. This is why the civil court system allows victims of drunk driving accidents to pursue monetary compensation for the financial, physical, and emotional damages that a negligent driver has caused.

If the person who caused your car accident is charged with driving under the influence (DUI), the outcome of their criminal proceedings will be entirely separate from your civil case. Although a criminal conviction could help your civil case, the drunk driver does not have to be found guilty of DUI in order for you to pursue a personal injury claim. For this reason, we encourage you to discuss your options with a lawyer at Biren Law Group today.

Who is Liable For a Drunk Driving Accident in California?

When it comes to drunk driving accidents, there may be more than one liable party. While any person who makes the decision to drive while intoxicated is clearly negligent, it is also true that the bartender or establishment that over-served them and then allowed them to get behind the wheel could also be liable. Similarly, a trucking company that knowingly hired a truck driver with a drug or alcohol problem could also be held accountable.

Understanding Drunk Driving Accidents in Los Angeles: Local Insights 

Los Angeles is a bustling metropolis with a unique set of challenges regarding road safety. The city's extensive network of highways and busy streets, such as the 405 and the 101, are often the scenes of unfortunate drunk driving accidents. Residents know that navigating these roads requires vigilance, especially during weekends and holidays when incidents of drunk driving tend to spike.

In Los Angeles, local government entities like the Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) and the California Highway Patrol (CHP) work tirelessly to enforce DUI laws and keep our roads safe. However, despite their efforts, drunk driving accidents still occur, leaving victims to deal with severe consequences. The pain points for many Angelenos include dealing with medical bills, loss of income, and the emotional trauma that follows such accidents.

At Biren Law Group, we understand the specific challenges Los Angeles residents face. We are familiar with the local court systems and the resources available to victims, such as the Los Angeles County Department of Public Health, which offers support services for those affected by drunk driving. Our deep knowledge of the area and its legal landscape allows us to effectively advocate for our clients and help them navigate the complexities of their cases.
