Few events are more devastating than losing a family member to an accident involving a drunk driver. In 2006, almost 14,000 people died in alcohol-related auto accidents — that’s almost one-third of all automobile accident fatalities. In spite of efforts to educate drivers about the dangers of driving under the influence of alcohol, this number has remained almost the same since 1996.
Alcohol related motor vehicle accidents can devastate families emotionally, physically, and financially. If you have suffered from this type of accident, the team of lawyers at Duncan Firm, PA, can put their experience and success record to work to fight for you and your family.

In addition to filing a claim against the driver who caused the accident, you may be able to file suit against whoever supplied the driver with alcohol. Under laws in the state of Arkansas, a commercial establishment who continues to sell alcoholic beverages to visibly intoxicated persons can be held liable for injuries inflicted on other parties even after they have left the establishment.
The conditions under which a commercial establishment can be held liable are very specific, so a consultation with the experienced attorneys at Duncan Firm, PA, can determine if this course of action might apply to you. Consultations are free and confidential, and we work on a contingency basis—we don’t get paid unless we win your settlement.
