Drunk-driving related accidents cause suffering.  Sometimes a contributing factor in the drunk driving accident is the person or persons or establishment or bar or restaurant that served alcohol or hosted an alcohol party.   Dram Shop laws are based on the premise that  retail establishments that sell alcohol should be accountable for any harm that is caused by an intoxicated person including injuries from a drunk driving accident. 

Pennsylvania Dram Shop Laws are meant to protect citizens, drives, passengers and pedestrians by motivating owners of alcohol establishments to develop responsible service policies and also train their employees so they develop the ability to decide when to refuse alcohol sales to patrons rather than profiting from excess alcohol consumption. 

If a DUI car accident in Pennsylvania is the result of a bar or restaurant continuing to sell alcohol to a person even if he or she is intoxicated, then, under state laws, the establishment can also be held liable for any injuries or damages caused to innocent victims. Under Pennsylvania law, plaintiff can recover after showing that:

  • The alcohol was sold to the patron by the said establishment or the defendant
  • Injures and/or damages were sustained by the plaintiff
  • The alcohol was sold to the patron by the establishment despite “visible intoxication”
  • The sale of the alcohol was the proximate cause of the intoxication

Our  Pennsylvania Personal Injury Team represents both victims injured in a car crash caused by a drunk driver and the bar or establishment that provided the excess alcohol; as well as claims arising from excess alcohol provided by a host or alcohol provided to an underage driver. 

If the other party is convicted of driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol, we may be able to pursue punitive damages. Punitive damages are intended to punish the other party and to discourage others from behaving so recklessly. This means that a victim can receive additional compensation beyond the value of pain and suffering, lost wages, medical expenses, property damage and other losses.  Do you have questions and need answers.  Contact us 24/7 at (877) 529-2422.
