Understanding Compensation
In drunk driving accidents, you may be entitled to various types of compensation, such as medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, and more. A lawyer can help you understand what damages you may be eligible for and work to maximize the amount you can recover.
Trial Representation
If the case goes to trial, having a skilled attorney representing you can make a significant difference in the outcome. They can present your case effectively, cross-examine witnesses, and handle any legal challenges that arise during trial.
Statute of Limitations
