Oklahoma DUI Accident Attorney

Oklahoma DUI Accident Lawyer

Drunk driving is illegal for a reason. Alcohol impairs response time and coordination, negatively affects concentration, and significantly increases the risk of accidents on the road. When someone chooses to drive while under the influence of alcohol, they’re putting themselves and others in harm’s way. If you’ve been injured by a drunk driver, our Oklahoma DUI accident lawyer can help you recover compensation for your injuries and any other damages that resulted from the crash. Contact us today to talk with one of our intoxicated driver lawyers about your case.

According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, every 42 minutes, someone dies from a DUI accident. Each year, there are around 11,000 drunk-driving-related deaths in the United States alone. Despite the fact that drivers know the risks, many still choose to get behind the wheel when intoxicated. Some may even combine alcohol with other illegal substances or prescription medications, increasing its effects on the mind and body. Impaired vision, poor decision-making skills, and decreased reaction time are common side effects of ingesting alcohol—and these bodily responses are often increased significantly by combining alcohol with other substances.

If a driver is charged with a DUI, they face either a misdemeanor or a felony (depending on the blood-alcohol content [BAC] and prior offenses), jail time, and up to $10,000 in fines. Still, this doesn’t deter some drivers. Neither does the fact that driving while under the influence can result in serious injuries, and even death. Our Oklahoma DUI accident attorneys know how detrimental a drunk driving accident can be. It can drastically change your life, leaving victims with lasting injuries, psychological trauma, and in the most unfortunate cases, it may steal the lives of a friend or family member.

That’s why our alcohol offense lawyers work so hard to hold drunk drivers accountable for their actions. Victims of these accidents shouldn’t be forced to pay the price for the other driver’s negligence, yet they’re often left with overwhelming medical bills, life-changing injuries, and long-lasting trauma. We make sure the offending driver doesn’t get off scot-free. If someone is inconsiderate enough to drive while under the influence, they should be held responsible for the harm they cause as a result of their choices.

Once you set up a meeting with us, we’ll take a close look at your case. We’ll examine all of the evidence—including police reports, medical records and bills, and in the case of a death, funeral costs and autopsy reports. We will use our skills and experience to make sure that you receive the compensation you deserve for your losses, whether it’s physical or emotional. We will support you every step of the way.
