Pittsburgh Drunk Driver Accident Lawyer
Pennsylvania Car Accident Attorney
To be injured in an auto accident is always distressing and disruptive to life's usual course of events. But to learn that the other driver was under the influence of alcohol takes the accident to another level. You are hurt, you are sad, and now you are just plain angry. The Pittsburgh drunk driving accident lawyers of Hal Waldman and associates are here to help.
Drunk Driving May Make a Bad Situation Worse
Injuries in drunk driving accidents are often more severe than injuries in other traffic accidents involving human error. An inebriated person sometimes does not realize how fast he or she is going, and lacks the ordinary judgment and reaction ability that would otherwise keep traffic flowing safely.

Personal Injury Law, Bar Tending Liability and Drunk Driving
The investigation of an auto accident involving a drunk driver is similar in most respects to a crash where drunk driving was involved. However, the drunk driving element offers additional challenges and opportunities. An attentive personal injury lawyer will closely monitor the outcome of the criminal DUI case to stay apprised of any relevant facts that may affect a personal injury lawsuit. Our participation can also help ensure that the drunk driver is properly punished - a goal that is often very important to the injured victims of drunk driving accidents.
Social Host and Dram Shop Questions
The responsibility for a drunk driving accident may go beyond the drunk driver. People who served an obviously intoxicated person or an underage drinker alcohol may be held accountable through what are known as "social host" and "dram shop" laws. Ask your attorney how to find out whether bartender liability or social host liability may apply to your drunk driving accident case.
