The Impact of Drunk Driving Accidents

Drunk driving accidents often lead to catastrophic injuries that can alter lives forever. Victims may face physical pain, emotional trauma, and overwhelming financial burdens. Common injuries resulting from these accidents include:

  • Traumatic Brain Injuries (TBI): Brain injuries can cause lifelong cognitive and physical impairments.
  • Spinal Cord Injuries: These injuries may result in partial or complete paralysis.
  • Broken Bones: Fractures can require extensive surgeries and prolonged recovery periods.
  • Internal Injuries: Damage to organs or internal bleeding can lead to life-threatening complications.
  • Severe Burns or Lacerations: These injuries often require long-term medical care and rehabilitation.

Beyond physical injuries, the emotional toll of a drunk driving accident can be profound. Victims often suffer from anxiety, depression, or post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), all of which can interfere with their quality of life.

Holding Drunk Drivers Accountable

Drunk driving is an act of negligence. In Virginia, victims of drunk driving accidents have the right to pursue compensation for their injuries, including:

  • Medical expenses (current and future)
  • Lost wages and loss of earning capacity
  • Pain and suffering
  • Emotional distress
  • Property damage

Additionally, courts may award punitive damages in cases involving drunk driving to punish the offender and deter similar behavior in the future. Elizabeth Tuomey understands the full extent of what victims endure and works to ensure that no aspect of your suffering goes unnoticed or uncompensated.
