DUI ACCIDENT LAWYERS

Hit by a Drunk or Drugged Driver? You Deserve Justice.

There’s no excuse for getting behind the wheel while impaired. When someone chooses to drive under the influence — and ends up hurting you or someone you love — they should be held accountable for every dollar of damage they’ve caused.



We’ve been representing DUI accident victims for over 40 years. We know how to build strong cases against impaired drivers, and we fight to make sure you’re fully compensated for your injuries, losses, and long-term impact.

What Counts as a DUI Accident Case

In DUI-related injury cases, we often seek:

  • Full medical treatment costs
  • Lost income & reduced ability to work
  • Pain & suffering
  • Emotional trauma
  • Vehicle/property damage
  • Long-term care needs
  • Wrongful death expenses
  • Punitive damages — additional compensation meant to punish the driver for reckless behavior

Why DUI Injury Cases Are Different

DUI cases involve criminal and civil components. The criminal case (handled by the state) may result in jail time or license suspension — but it won’t pay your bills or compensate your losses.


That’s where we come in.


We file civil claims against drunk drivers and their insurance companies, pushing for the maximum amount allowed — including punitive damages in many cases. You only get one shot at this. We make it count.

What to Do If You Were Hit by a Drunk Driver

  1. Call 911 and report the crash — always
  2. Request medical help at the scene
  3. Don’t confront the impaired driver
  4. Get a copy of the police report later — it’s critical
  5. Contact a lawyer to protect your rights right away

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Can I still file a claim if the drunk driver wasn’t arrested?

    Yes. A criminal conviction is not required to bring an injury claim. We can use witness testimony, police reports, or even circumstantial evidence to build your case.

  • Can I sue a drunk driver personally?

    Yes — but we typically pursue the claim through their auto insurance. If the damages exceed their policy limits, we may explore additional options depending on the situation.

  • What are punitive damages and do I qualify for them?

    Punitive damages are meant to punish the driver for especially reckless behavior — like driving drunk. Georgia law allows for punitive damages in DUI cases, and we fight hard to include them.

  • What if I lost a family member in a DUI crash?

    We handle wrongful death claims involving drunk drivers. These cases are deeply personal, and we take care to walk families through the legal process with honesty and compassion.

  • How long do I have to file a DUI accident claim?

    You generally have two years from the date of the crash in Georgia — but it’s best to act quickly. Evidence can disappear, and the sooner we get started, the stronger your case will be.

Why It Matters

Drunk drivers change lives in an instant — and then the insurance companies try to downplay the damage. We don’t let that happen.


We’ve handled DUI accident claims across Georgia for decades. We know how to prove fault, push for full compensation, and pursue additional damages when the law allows.



We’re not here to settle quickly — we’re here to get it right.
