DUI Injury Accidents in Phoenix

DUI accidents are caused by drivers who choose to operate vehicles under the influence of alcohol or drugs. These accidents are not only avoidable but also entirely preventable with responsible decision-making. Despite efforts by law enforcement and local organizations to reduce the prevalence of DUI incidents, Phoenix still sees a significant number of such accidents every year. These accidents often result in severe physical injuries and emotional trauma for victims.

Common Injuries Resulting from DUI Accidents

Drunk driving can result in a wide range of injuries, some of which are life-altering. Victims of DUI accidents often face physical, emotional, and financial burdens that can be overwhelming. Common injuries include:

  • Traumatic Brain Injuries (TBIs): Head injuries are among the most severe injuries resulting from DUI accidents. A TBI can lead to long-term cognitive impairments, memory loss, and emotional disturbances.
  • Neck and Spine Injuries: These injuries are critical as they may lead to partial or total paralysis. Victims often require extensive rehabilitation and physical therapy to regain mobility and reduce pain.
  • Broken Bones and Fractures: DUI accidents frequently result in broken bones due to the intense force and impact involved in these crashes. Treatment for fractures can be both costly and time-consuming.
  • Soft Tissue Injuries: Injuries such as sprains, strains, and ligament tears can cause chronic pain and require prolonged medical care.
  • Burns: Severe accidents may lead to serious burns, requiring emergency treatment, skin grafts, and long-term follow-up care.

The Legal Process and Compensation in DUI Accident Cases

After a DUI accident, the legal process can be overwhelming. Victims often face difficulties in obtaining fair compensation from insurance companies or holding drunk drivers accountable for their actions. CLS Law is committed to ensuring that your rights are protected throughout the legal journey.

Compensation You May Be Entitled To:

  • Medical Expenses: DUI accidents often lead to significant medical expenses, from emergency care to ongoing treatment and rehabilitation. CLS Law will help ensure that you receive compensation for all medical costs related to your injuries.

  • Pain and Suffering: Victims of DUI accidents often endure physical and emotional distress. CLS Law fights for your right to fair compensation for the pain and suffering you have endured.
  • Punitive Damages: In cases where the drunk driver displayed gross negligence or recklessness, punitive damages may be awarded to deter similar behavior and hold the driver accountable.
