What Is Dram Shop Liability?

In some instances, bars and restaurants can be held liable for injuries suffered in a drunk driving accident caused by one of their customers. These cases are governed by dram shop liability laws, which require establishments to adhere to responsible serving practices and not over-serve visibly intoxicated customers.

If you’ve been injured in a car accident caused by a drunk driver, the attorneys at Whetstone Perkins & Fulda can help. We’ll evaluate the circumstances surrounding your accident to determine whether the bar can be held liable under dram shop laws. When appropriate, this strategy can help maximize the value of your compensation.
