Albuquerque Drunk Driving Accident Lawyer

Consuming alcohol affects the brain’s ability to make judgment calls and impedes our reaction time. When in the operation of a motor vehicle, these effects can be detrimental. Driving while under the influence of alcohol is not only illegal but also negligent. In Albuquerque, it is not uncommon for drunk drivers to cause severe accidents that result in debilitating injuries or fatalities.

Although the risks of driving under the influence are well-known, drunk driving still kills hundreds of people and injures countless more every year across New Mexico. Thankfully, there are people out there like Attorney Paul M. Dominguez, who are dedicated to helping the victims of these crashes seek justice for their damages. Mr. Dominguez and his team at Dominguez Law can help you hold negligent drivers accountable by filing a claim for your injuries.

Hold a Drunk Driver Responsible for Your Injuries in Albuquerque, New Mexico

It may be obvious which party is at fault for a crash when a driver has been confirmed that they were operating the vehicle while under the influence. However, that does not mean that their insurance company will make things right for the accident victims. The main priority of insurance companies is to protect their wallets, not victims injured by their policyholders, so they will do everything they can to avoid paying out the full extent of a victim’s damages. Our Albuquerque drunk driving accident lawyers can help you recover damages by:
  • Conducting a complete investigation into your accident
  • Working with trusted medical professionals to establish the full extent of your injuries
  • Negotiating and communicating with every party involved in the case on your behalf
  • Ensuring that your case is prepared for court and representing your interests in the courtroom if needed
  • Collecting critical evidence to support your claim
  • Assurance that all documents are filed promptly and correctly
  • Providing an understanding of the legal system and how to make it work for you
When you partner with Dominguez Law, we will make sure that the at-fault driver’s insurance company does not take advantage of you. Drunk driving accident victims are already suffering from physical and emotional trauma. They should not also have to worry themselves sick about paying for their medical bills or making up for their lost wages.
