Injured in an Accident With a Drunk Driver? We Know How to Fight for Your Deserved Compensation

Drunk Driving Accidents in Connecticut

Hartford Personal Injury Lawyer

Connecticut has strict DUI laws and being involved in a drunk driving accident is not taken lightly for the drunk driver. The Blood Alcohol Content (BAC) limit for drivers 21 and older is .08%. The BAC limit for drivers under age 21 is .02% and the limit for commercial drivers is .04%. If a driver is involved in a car accident with a BAC above the legal limit, they could be facing severe consequences under the criminal justice system.

People are injured in drunk driving accidents every few minutes in the United States and the victims deserve compensation for their suffering and hardships. On top of that, about 30 people die each day in an alcohol- impaired accident in the United States. Drunk driving is a bigger issue than many realize and many innocent drivers suffer due to the decisions of others.

Recovering Damages in a Drunk Driving Accident Case

If you have suffered injuries after being involved in a drunk driving accident, you can hold the negligent driver responsible. The drunk driver will most likely be receiving penalties and fines for a DUI offense and you can also pursue compensation. Car accidents can lead to several different costs and to avoid paying for them on your own, seek help in recovering damages.

The Hartford personal injury attorneysfrom our firm fight aggressively to recover the following damages:

Medical expenses
Car damages
Rehabilitative costs
Ongoing care
Lost wages
Pain and suffering

Punitive damages are also common in this type of case. The driver is willingly disregarding the safety of others on the road and they could be ordered punitive damages for these negligent actions. Any physical, emotional and financial hardships that you are facing can play a role in the compensation order. See how a car accident attorney from Cicchiello & Cicchiello, LLP can help.
