New Orleans Drunk Driver Accident Attorney

No matter which way you say it – driving drunk, driving while intoxicated, or driving under the influence – driving drunk can, and often times does, come with serious consequences. Driving under the influence means that the driver’s blood alcohol level is above Louisiana’s limit of 0.08%, or that the driver’s physical abilities are impaired from drugs or alcohol.

For over thirty years, Louisiana Drunk Driver Accident Lawyer, Michael Hingle, has been fighting for justice for innocent victims injured, or wrongfully killed, due to a drunk driver.

Effects of a Drunk Driving Accident

Drunk driving accidents are some of the most dangerous and preventable types of accidents. These accidents generally cause more serious types of injuries than any other type of accident. Because a drunk driver has an impaired judgment and physical abilities, they easily lose control of their vehicles and destroy the lives of many innocent victims.

The serious injuries incurred by a drunk driving accident include, but are not limited to:

• Broken bones
• Traumatic and severe brain injuries
• Spinal cord injuries
• Whiplash
• Permanent disability or paralysis
• Injuries requiring amputation
• Trauma
• Death

If you or a loved one has been involved in a drunk driving accident, do not wait a second longer. Contact Michael Hingle & Associates to file a claim and receive the compensation and justice you deserve.

Filing a Louisiana Drunk Driver Accident Claim

Automobile accidents involving a drunk driver are different from regular car accidents. Driving under the influence is against the law, and the drunk driver chooses to drive while physically impaired. The injury or death of an innocent victim from a drunken driving accident could have been prevented.

Being involved in a drunk driving accident can be life changing. Your mind is full of questions such as:

• Do I need an attorney?
• Who is going to pay for my medical bills?
• Who is going to pay for my rehab, or necessary prescriptions?
• What if I have to miss work because of an injury?
• Who will pay for my loss of wages if I cannot go into work?
• Do I have to pay for my vehicle damage?
• The drunk driver ran from the scene – will they be found? What if they are not found?
• Am I, or is my loved one, going to be disabled for life?
• Were there witnesses who will speak on my behalf?
• I was unconscious after the accident; who will attest to what really happened?
• My loved one died; who pays for all of the funeral arrangements?
• My loved one died; they were the financial provider for my family – now what?
