Rights of DUI Victims
Mothers Against Drunk Drivers Canada (MADDC) estimates there are over four deaths and almost two hundred injured every day involving an accident with an impaired driver in Canada.
Many lives are destroyed by alcohol and drug impaired drivers who make the choice to drive while under the influence. Driving under the influence is one of the most common causes of automobile accidents.
DUI victims often suffer spinal cord, head or traumatic brain injuries and other serious injuries, since DUI accidents almost always involve high rates of speed and head-on collisions. The costs to the victim, physically, emotionally and financially are very great.
If you were the victim of a drunk or drug impaired driver, you can seek compensation from the bar or restaurant that served the driver, or the parent or homeowner who provided alcohol to their guests, as well as from the driver who caused the accident. You may be able to be compensated for your medical expenses, rehabilitation costs, loss of income, future earning potential and pain and suffering.
If you reside in Hamilton or Toronto, Ontario, Canada or the surrounding area and you or someone you care about was a victim of a drunk or drug impaired driver, please contact an experienced Canadian DUI injury lawyer at the Findlay Law Offices in Hamilton, Ontario today to schedule a confidential consultation at no cost to you to assist you in recovering the fair compensation to which you are entitled.
