Drunk Driving
Alcohol is an integral part of American life and is one of the most readily available consumer products on today's market. It is cheap and often marketed toward young people as an acceptable part of popular culture. However, while drinking is a normal accompaniment to most social events, our society no longer considers drunk-driving crashes as unavoidable accidents. More than 100,000 deaths are attributable to alcohol consumption each year, and the economic costs associated with alcohol problems total more than $100 billion annually.
For victims who survive a drunk-driving crash, the crash itself is just the beginning. In a split second, their lives are changed forever and it becomes a daily struggle emotionally, physically, and financially. In many cases, the offender often walks away with minor injuries or no injuries at all and receives an insignificant punishment or is sentenced to a few months in jail. The victim, on the other hand, often sustains serious injuries that result in paralysis, coma, traumatic brain injury, or life in a vegetative state.
For the families of a loved one involved in a serious drunk-driving collision, life is suddenly interrupted, and tragic consequences soon follow. Life becomes a prison, not only for the seriously-injured victim, but also for the care-giving family members who must adjust to the day-to-day challenges of becoming an around-the-clock caregiver. Their life is put on hold. They lack the energy to maintain normal activities, become overwhelmed with emotion, and struggle to cope with the unrelenting demands of day-to-day life.
Financially, the costs for medical treatment can be astronomical, as the offender often has no insurance. Prescriptions, therapy, and respite care can become all consuming. In many cases, the injured person will end up permanently disabled and begin receiving disability payments much less than their regular income.
As if the sorrow that follows is not enough, dealing with the legal ramifications can be overwhelming. Many victims of these tragic collisions describe life afterwards as a scream that will not come, forever haunted, because life is never again the same as it was before the wreck.

Private Insurance Disability Claims
We may be able to help with disability claims against insurance companies when disability coverage has been purchased by you directly from an insurance company or provided to you through your employment. In situations where the insurance company has breached its duty of good faith in dealing with you and denying obviously deserved benefits, we can advise regarding remedies in excess of a claim merely for benefits. Such remedies can include punitive damages, statutory penalties, costs, interest, and attorney fees.
We are willing to consider these claims on a sliding scale contingency fee basis. The amount of the fee can be determined by the amount of the benefit claimed and the level of our involvement. We can discuss acting as escrow agent and attorney to collect benefits directly from the insurance company and then disburse to you through our trust account—even in situations where benefits have not been denied.
