Drunk-driving cases often involve more than just the intoxicated motorist. Texas dram-shop laws may also hold the bar, restaurant, or party host liable for over-serving alcohol. Our bilingual legal team (English & Spanish) digs into every angle—pulling police reports, BAC results, surveillance footage, and witness statements—to pinpoint fault and maximize your recovery.
While you focus on healing, we negotiate aggressively with insurers that try to minimize payouts, pushing for damages that cover future medical care, lost earning capacity, pain, and emotional trauma. If a fair settlement is refused, we’re ready to present a powerful case in court. Don’t let confusion or fear keep you from the compensation you’re owed. Contact Dang Law Group today for a free, confidential consultation with an experienced Austin drunk driving accident lawyer—and let us fight for your rights every step of the way.
DRUNK DRIVING ACCIDENTS
Cases Our Austin Drunk Driving Attorneys Handle
Drunk-driving crashes are a world apart from routine fender-benders. Alcohol slows reaction time, blurs vision, and destroys judgment—turning an ordinary trip across Austin into a disaster in seconds. Dang Law Group’s drunk driving accident attorneys dig into every detail to pinpoint fault and fight for maximum compensation.
Typical errors we uncover include:
- Delayed reactions: Intoxicated drivers often blow through yellow lights or fail to brake in time for stopped traffic.
- Speed misjudgment: Alcohol-impaired motorists frequently travel too fast for conditions, multiplying crash forces.
- Lane drift and wrong-way driving: Crossing centerlines or drifting across lanes puts oncoming cars, cyclists, and scooters directly in harm’s way.
- Poor weather handling: Rain on I-35 or fog over the Pennybacker Bridge becomes treacherous when a driver’s coordination is already compromised.
- Mechanical neglect: Chronic DUI offenders may also ignore vehicle maintenance—bald tires or faulty brakes can turn a bad choice into a deadly one.
Accident patterns we see most often:
- Head-on impacts when a drunk driver veers into opposing traffic.
- Side-impact “T-bone” crashes at intersections where impaired motorists ignore red lights or stop signs.
- Rear-end collisions caused by failure to notice slowing or stopped vehicles at construction zones or school crossings.
- Pedestrian and cyclist strikes on Sixth Street, South Congress, and neighborhood crosswalks when an intoxicated driver misses someone in the right-of-way.
- Hit-and-run incidents where the drunk driver flees, leaving victims without immediate aid.
Consequences You Might Face After an Austin Drunk-Driving Crash
When an intoxicated driver crosses the line, even a routine trip home can end in catastrophic harm and steep financial loss. Alcohol slows reflexes, blurs vision, and destroys judgment—turning every impact into a multiplier of injury.
Sudden, intoxication-induced impacts often fling occupants into windows, dashboards, or steering wheels, leading to concussions, brain contusions, or skull fractures. Survivors may struggle with migraines, dizziness, memory gaps, and personality changes that demand long-term neurological care.
The violent whiplash of a drunk-driver collision can rupture discs or damage the spinal cord, risking partial or total paralysis. Early imaging, aggressive rehab, and sometimes surgery are essential to prevent permanent disability.
Arms, legs, and ribs can shatter when seatbelts lock or metal crumples around you. Torn ligaments and nerve damage may limit mobility and earning power, often requiring extensive physical therapy or orthopedic surgery.
Beyond visible wounds, victims frequently endure anxiety, depression, and post-traumatic stress. These invisible injuries can be as debilitating as broken bones—and deserve full value in any claim.
A drunk-driving crash can total your car and destroy phones, laptops, or other personal items inside. Replacement costs, towing fees, and rental expenses quickly add up while you’re sidelined from work and medical appointments.
LEGAL ADVICE
How Our Austin Drunk Driving Accident Attorneys Help You
When a motorist chooses alcohol over safety, the legal maze that follows can feel overwhelming. Dang Law Group’s drunk-driving accident lawyers in Austin step in the moment you call—protecting your rights, guiding every decision, and fighting for the maximum compensation Texas law allows.
We explain how Texas personal-injury and dram-shop statutes intertwine with the criminal DUI case, outline strict filing deadlines, and detail every category of damages you can pursue—emergency care, long-term rehab, lost wages, future earning capacity, pain, emotional distress, and punitive damages designed to punish reckless conduct—so you can make confident choices.
Our team pulls police crash reports and breath- or blood-alcohol results, secures dash-cam and traffic-cam footage, interviews eyewitnesses and first responders, and consults toxicology and accident-reconstruction experts. We also dig into bar receipts, surveillance video, and server training records to determine whether a restaurant, nightclub, or party host over-served the driver. Your medical files and billing statements are gathered to prove every dollar of loss.
From drafting demand letters and filing lawsuits to coordinating with prosecutors and managing hospital liens, we handle the entire paper chase. You’ll never worry about missed deadlines or baffling forms—updates arrive in clear English or Spanish, whichever you prefer.
Insurance carriers for the drunk driver—and any liable bar or social host—move quickly to limit payouts. Armed with rock-solid evidence and expert testimony, we demand a settlement that covers both today’s bills and tomorrow’s needs. If mediation can resolve the case faster and fairly, we pursue it; if not, we press on.
Should the defendants refuse a just offer, we are trial-ready. Our litigators cross-examine officers, bartenders, and toxicologists; dismantle defense tactics; and present a compelling narrative of how intoxication shattered your life, aiming for a verdict that delivers every penny you deserve.
