Drunk Driving Accidents
This year alone, close to 500 South Carolinians will be killed by drunk drivers. Few things are more painful than losing a loved one due to an unfit driver making the reckless decision to get behind the wheel. And while no amount of money will ever make up for that loss, we at the Elrod Pope Law Firm will help you recover as much as you can.
As with other automobile accidents, drunk driving accidents result in physical damage, medical bills, lost wages, future cost of medical treatment, time apart from your loved ones, pain and suffering, and diminished quality of life. In addition, the law sometimes allows victims and their family members to recover punitive damages, which can even exceed the amount of your physical damages. At Elrod Pope Law Firm, we have dozens of years helping drunk driving victims deal with their losses and recover their damages.
If you have lost a loved one in a drunk driving accident, you have our utmost sympathy, whether you’re a client or not. But don’t let the driver’s insurance company off the hook by accepting a rushed, inadequate offer. You will never get back what you lost, but our attorneys will make sure that you get the best deal the law can provide.
