Not Your Typical Car Accident Case

Drunk driving car accident cases are not like other car accident claims. Evidence from field sobriety tests, breathalyzer tests, and other police documentation at the time of the accident can help provide additional support that is not found in other cases. Mr. Grife can use this evidence to your advantage to help you prove the other driver was at fault.

In addition, there is the potential to recover punitive damages in a drunk driving car accident case. While this is not common in other car accident claims, punitive damages are often awarded in these situations to punish drunk drivers for their gross disregard of the safety of others. Mr. Grife will often attempt to recover punitive damages in order to help you maximize the value of your compensation.

While there is considerable public outrage that occurs when someone is seriously injured or killed in a drunk driving car accident, it is not necessarily easier to recover compensation in these cases. Insurance companies are more focused on maximizing their profits than providing assistance to victims, and they will often go to great lengths to reduce the value of your claim.

Mr. Grife knows the tactics used by insurance companies, and he can help ensure your damage award reflects the true value of your loss. During his career, he has earned more than $12 million in gross damages for his clients. This experience, along with his commitment to personally handle every aspect of your case, will be invaluable when seeking to maximize your compensation.
