Title: Drunk Driving and Car Accidents in Los Angeles


1
Drunk Driving and Car Accidents in Los Angeles
2
Accidents In Los Angeles
  • There are dozens of car accidents in Los Angeles
    every day. Almost 40 of all of them are related
    to drunk driving.
  • The state of California has zero tolerance
    towards driving under the influence (DUI). If you
    ever find yourself in a car accident where the
    person responsible for causing the accident was
    under the influence of alcohol, contact one of
    Car Accident Attorneys in Los Angeles and seek
    help in filing a claim.

3
Fact Did you know that teenagers are
responsible for causing 32 of all car accidents
in California?
4
What are the penalties for driving under the
influence, and what happens to those responsible
for causing the accident?
5
Restitution or a Lawsuit
  • Every accident is different and is treated
    differently in court. If the party responsible
    for causing the accident is convicted, a
    restitution will be awarded to you by the court.
    However, in cases where the person responsible is
    not convicted or pleads to a lesser charge, you
    can file a personal lawsuit against them.
  • To do that, you are going to need help from one
    of Los Angeles DUI Defense Attorneys and learn
    how you can benefit from hiring an attorney.

6
Recover Compensation For The Damages
  • Pain and suffering
  • Fully paid medical costs (prescription drugs,
    doctors fees, recovery treatments, ambulance
    fees)
  • Lost wages (past and future)
  • Lost earning capacity (compensation for being
    able to only work half or less of your full time)
  • Property damage
  • In most cases, you can recover compensation for
    all the damages done to you and your vehicle.

It Could Be Your Responsibility
If you have a teenage son or daughter, in case
they get involved in a car accident, it could be
your responsibility for letting them sit behind
the wheel. As a parent, it is your job to teach
your child how to properly drive and control the
vehicle. Spend more time with your children, and
pass your knowledge onto them. Also, if they are
going out for drinks, dont let them take the
car. Instead, pay for their cab or drive them
over. Letting your child drive when you know
there will be alcohol involved is sometimes the
same as committing a crime. Be a responsible
parent, and even if it is going to cost you an
argument, prevent them from taking the car keys
when going out for drinks with their friends.

Evaluate With An Attorney
  • In order to recover compensation for the damages
    to you and your vehicle , you are going to need
    help from a skilled and seasoned Los Angeles Car
    Accident Attorney.
  • Trying to represent yourself and your best
    interest will probably cost you more than you can
    afford. And after sustaining a serious injury,
    you cannot afford to lose anything as medical
    costs alone could lead you into bankruptcy.
    Consult with the attorneys at Okabe Haushalter,
    and be sure to do the right thing for you and
    your family.
