Any car accident can produce serious injury, but a drunk driving accident can be especially dangerous. Drunk drivers often travel at high speeds, ignore traffic signals and even drive on the wrong side of the road. The collisions they cause can be deadly.

Liquor Host Liability and Dram Shops

A dram shop is an establishment that sells or serves alcohol. This includes:

• Liquor stores
• Bars and taverns
• Restaurants
• Hotels

Under liquor liability law, if a dram shop sells or serves alcohol to a person who is clearly intoxicated, they may be held liable if that person causes an accident. If you or a family member were injured by drunk driver, you may be able to file a claim against the driver and the dram shop establishment that served them. Also, if you were a passenger in a motor vehicle and were involved in an alcohol intoxication-related accident, our Boston car accident lawyers can help.

If you get drunk and drive and have a car accident, you may also be able to file a claim against the dram shop that over-served you.
