Drunk Driving Accidents

Helping People Who Have Been Injured By Drunk Drivers

At the Law Offices of Sanford M. Cipinko, our attorneys know how to hold drunk drivers accountable for the damage they cause. With more than 30 years of experience on our side, we know to use our skill in negotiation and litigation to aggressively pursue full compensation for victims of drunk driving accidents. We serve clients throughout California.

One of the crucial steps in handling a car accident case is proving that the driver who caused the accident was acting negligently. If someone was driving drunk, proving negligence is fairly straightforward. DUI is against the law and constitutes a negligent act.

By preparing every case as if it will proceed to trial, we put our clients in a position to get favorable results, either through a fair settlement offer or in the courtroom.

Taking on drunk drivers and all other negligent parties

Although an intoxicated driver is responsible for his or her own actions, the chain of responsibility does not end with them. In some instances, achieving the best possible results for clients who have been injured by drunk drivers means taking an additional step. We will investigate into how the driver became intoxicated in the first place. This may involve filing a lawsuit against the establishment that provided alcohol to the person who caused the accident.

These lawsuits are known as “dram shop” cases. They allow an injured party to hold bars, restaurants and other establishments accountable when they provide too much alcohol to one of their customers.
