Nassau County Drunk Driving Accident Lawyer
Seeking Compensation After a DUI Accident in New York
The numbers of injury or fatal accidents caused by drunk drivers are staggering. No matter what punishments are implemented by state legislators, there are certain people who will still get behind the wheel when over the limit, endangering innocent drivers and their passengers. The percentage of intoxicated drivers increases later at night, and EMTs report that the majority of the accidents after midnight involve a drunk driver.
If you or a loved one has been injured in an accident with a drunk driver in Nassau County, contact the Law Offices of Charles R. Gueli for a free consultation!
Many fatal car accidents are due to drunk drivers, either wrong way driving, swerving in lanes, or failing to stop at lights or stop signs. These tragedies cause families indescribable grief and loss. Justice must be served, and although the drunk driver will likely be arrested and charged and will be punished through the criminal justice system, the civil court system is where compensation can be pursued in a lawsuit. A large majority of cases are settled out of court, but if necessary, we move forward to trial, and we are extremely experienced litigators.
