Drunk driving accidents:
Irresponsible choices; tragic results.
John A. Willis — a Boca Raton, Florida, attorney
Drinking and driving is a blatantly selfish and negligent act. Our society has little tolerance for those who engage in it, especially when they cause accidents, injuries and fatalities. Drunk drivers' victims deserve compensation for their injuries and justice for the negligence that caused them.

Drunk driving cases must be evaluated differently than typical car accident cases
Juries disapprove strongly of drunk drivers. They often award the highest "reasonable" amount to victims of drunk driving accidents to punish the DUI driver. Punitive damages may also be awarded in certain cases, but these type of damages are not usually covered by the DWI driver's insurance. For these reasons, the valuation of drunk driving cases is generally higher then the same case without the intoxication issue, but may involve difficult insurance coverage questions.
