Phoenix Drunk Driving Accident Attorneys

Arizona Personal Injury Lawyers for Drunk Driving Accidents

Arizona criminal law punishes drunk drivers for the harm they cause, but working with a lawyer to bring a lawsuit can be an effective way to recover the compensation you need to move forward with your life after you have been injured in a drunk driving accident.

At Harris Powers & Cunningham, we represent the victims of drunk driving accidents with the goal of protecting their rights under Arizona law. Our experienced trial attorneys know how serious the consequences of a drunk driving accident can be. Our clients have experienced injuries including brain damage, spinal cord injury, severe burns and lost limbs. They have had their lives completely changed by the injuries they experienced. In taking effective legal action, we can help them begin to rebuild what has been lost.

Arizona Dram Shop Liability

Under Arizona law, bars, restaurants and their employees are responsible for the damage caused when they serve alcohol to someone underage or someone who was already intoxicated. Arizona law also holds social hosts — like parents who allow teens to drink in their home — responsible for the damage caused when they serve alcohol to minors. The law allows courts to require these businesses and people to pay damages to any person who was injured, or to the survivors of a person killed.

Sometimes car accident victims do not initially know that their lawsuit can be against a bar as well as the driver. At Harris Powers & Cunningham, we investigate all parts of the case, helping our clients understand the full range of their options in personal injury and wrongful death claims.
