Ventura County Drunk Driving Accident Attorneys

The Ventura County drunk driving accident attorneys at Estey Bomberger will utilize every financial and legal resource they have to ensure drunk drivers are held accountable for their actions. Although taking the intoxicated driver through the criminal court system may impose fines and even imprisonment, it does not provide the victim financial compensation for damages related to the DUI accident. Filing a personal injury claim will allow a victim to recover compensation from the drunk driver through the civil court system.

Ventura County DUI Accident Related Injuries

Drivers must understand that when they operate a vehicle under the influence of drugs or alcohol, they are not only putting their lives at risk, but they are also putting the lives of innocent motorists, bicyclists and pedestrians at risk. DUI accidents can end tragically for passengers of a car driven by a drunk driver or the occupants of a car that is hit by a drugged driver. In 2008, DUI accidents were responsible for taking the lives of more than 1,100 California residents. Survivors of drunk driving accidents may be left to deal with a serious injury, such as a head injury, brain injury, spinal cord injury, neck injury, back injury, amputation (limb loss) injury, burn injury, internal organ injury and blunt trauma injury.
