Orlando Drunk Driving Accident Lawyer

March 23, 2022 | Attorney, Matthew Dolman

In Florida, DUI or drunk driving is a serious offense punishable by law. The consequences of drunk driving often impact victims' families with long-term effects. Having received and filed many drunk driving compensation claims, we understand the trauma associated with this kind of accident. 

Our Orlando drunk driving accident lawyers will help you and your loved ones seek the justice you deserve if you are a victim of an accident. Dolman Law Group can help you handle every step of your legal case.

What Compensation Am I Eligible to Receive?

Drunk driving accidents can lead to devastating injuries and damages. In the case that a drunk driver was at fault for your accident, your drunk driving lawyer can push for compensation. While these damages may vary from case to case, these are the most common types of damages that drunk driving accident victims are eligible to receive:

  • Cost of medical bills
  • Lost wages and potential earnings
  • Scarring and disfigurement
  • Damage to property
  • Loss of enjoyment of life
  • Funeral and burial costs

It can be hard to know on your own what forms of compensation you can include in your claim. Our Orlando drunk driving accident lawyers can tell you all types of damages you can seek. Your potential payout amount will be based on the strength of your case and the extent of your injuries. 

First, we are deeply sorry for your loss if your loved one passed away in a drunk driving accident. The death of a loved one can be devastating emotionally and financially, leaving you to pick up the pieces. We can help you file a wrongful death claim or lawsuit and seek damages for your economic and non-economic losses.

If you were a victim of a DUI, you may want to have a lawyer who understands the litigation process and fights to the end to get you compensation. Dolman Law Group's attorneys represent victims of auto accidents and drunk driving accidents, and we fight hard to seek what you deserve. 

Our Orlando team can handle every step of your case, including:

  • Gathering evidence to show that the other party is responsible for your damages
  • Defending your right to seek compensation 
  • Handling any unfair or aggressive insurance tactics for you
  • Dealing with communications related to your case
  • Navigating the negotiations process
  • Taking your case to trial if necessary

When you're facing painful injuries, you may want our help with your case. This way, we'll handle your compensation claim or lawsuit while you focus on your well-being.

Proving Liability for Your Accident

The drunk driver will almost always be deemed at fault for your injuries and damages—as long as there is evidence of their intoxication or a DUI charge. Once one of our drunk driving accident lawyers proves that their negligence caused your injury, we can then push for compensation.

Even if the driver did not receive a citation for a DUI, our attorneys can work to gather evidence showing that the driver was negligent. We can use the police report, witness statements, surveillance camera footage, and other evidence.
