Drunk Driving

Drunk drivers frequently injure and kill innocent victims as a result of the reckless decision to operate a motor vehicle while intoxicated or under the influence of drugs or alcohol. If this situation applies to you, find out exactly how The Murry Law Office can help.

While drunk driving is a crime, you can be assured the state will prosecute the drunk driver criminally. That does not help the victim of a drunk driving accident, and it takes a lawyer to obtain civil justice.

In many drunk-driving car accidents punitive damages can be sought for the dangerous conduct on the part of the defendant driver.

While Texas has established express rules for dealing with punitive damages, they may be appropriately sought in some accidents involving the DWI accident. It is important to note that punitive damages are in addition to actual damages and are assessed as a civil punishment for bad acts.

If you or a loved one were injured or killed by a drunk driver, contact Monty G. Murry at the Murry Law Office. The consultation is always free and you pay no attorney's fees unless and until your claim is resolved.
