Pursuing dram shop liability for drunk driving injury victims
Serving alcohol to someone who is visibly drunk is not only dangerous but against the law. When a drunk driver injures or kills someone, the bar, restaurant, club, or other establishment that served the alcohol may be held responsible for financial damages caused by the accident.
Under Georgia liquor liability laws (dram shop liability laws), it is necessary to prove that the server knew or had reason to know that the individual was already intoxicated when the liquor was served. Our accomplished Atlanta drunk driving injury lawyers have the ability to prove dram shop liability in these cases, so that all responsible parties are held accountable for their actions.
