Drunk Driving Accidents

Reckless choices have consequences. We pursue punitive damages and full compensation.

Drunk driving is not an accident. It is a conscious decision to endanger every person on the road. If you or a loved one has been injured by a drunk driver, you need an attorney who will pursue every avenue of recovery, including punitive damages.

Attorney Michael L. Chambers, Jr. and his team conduct thorough evidence gathering, including blood alcohol test results, crash reconstruction, witness statements, and surveillance footage. We coordinate your medical care, handle all insurer communications, and fight for the full compensation you deserve.

How we help

These cases are unique because the at-fault driver made a conscious choice to drink and drive, which opens the door to punitive damages in addition to standard compensation.

We investigate thoroughly: BAC tests, police reports, video evidence, and witness statements. We consult experts and push for full compensation including both economic and punitive damages. DUI charges and civil injury claims run on separate tracks but reinforce each other. We navigate both.

What you can recover

Economic damages: medical bills, lost income, rehabilitation costs, vehicle repair or replacement.

Non-economic damages: pain and suffering, emotional distress, loss of enjoyment of life.

Punitive damages: designed specifically to punish the drunk driver and deter others. Available because drunk driving is a conscious decision, not a moment of inattention.

Car accident, long fight

Mr. Chambers is hands down the BEST OF THE BEST!!! I was being sued for thousands of dollars. I called every attorney office in my area and NOONE assisted me like they did here. When I called Michel L. Chambers's office, EVERYONE I spoke to was kind, helpful and understanding. They took my issue very seriously and made it top priority to assist me.
