We Can Help You Recover the Compensation You Deserve

We are familiar with the frequency and devastating effects of drunk driving accidents and fight passionately to pursue justice for our clients and their families.
Drunk Driving Accident Statistics
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, nearly 30 people die every day in the U.S. from accidents involving drunk drivers. Almost one-third (32%) of all deaths resulting from traffic accidents in the U.S. in 2009 involved alcohol. An eye-raising fact from Mothers Against Drunk Driving (MADD) is, on average, a drunk driver has driven drunk 87 times before their first arrest.
We encourage you to visit the MADD website to learn more about their campaign to eliminate drunk driving, tips on how to spot a drunk driver, and what to do if you see a drunk driver on the road.
Knowledgeable Lawyers Representing DUI Victims
As Coral Springs drunk driving accident lawyers, we understand the physical, emotional, and financial impact that a DUI accident can have on a victim and their family. Psychological effects include post-traumatic stress disorder, nightmares, and insomnia. Physical injuries can render a victim immobile and, in some cases, result in death. The financial consequences of a DUI accident can lead to loss of income and endless medical bills.
Victims of drunk driving accidents have rights. If you have been injured in a drunk driving accident, or if you have lost someone you love due to a drunk driver, seek the guidance of our attorneys. An experienced lawyer will explain your legal rights and deal directly with the defendant’s insurance company, as well as your own. An attorney can also help you prove liability (fault) against the drunk driver who caused you or your family member injury.
Our goal is to obtain justice for our clients by holding negligent drivers accountable for their actions. Because of the destructive effects of DUI accidents, Florida law allows DUI accident victims to sue drunk drivers for monetary damages as well as punitive damages. Punitive damages are damages awarded to the plaintiff that are intended as a punishment or deterrent to the defendant.
We represent accident victims in personal injury matters throughout Florida, with a concentration in South Florida including Palm Beach, Broward, and Miami-Dade Counties. Our office is located in Coral Springs, which is in northwest Broward County. Cities that we serve include West Palm Beach, Boca Raton, Coral Springs, Pompano Beach, Tamarac, Margate, Coconut Creek, North Lauderdale, Lauderhill, Pembroke Pines, Fort Lauderdale, and Miami.
