Car Accident Attorney Helping the Injured for More Than 25 Years

Americans’ view on drunk driving has evolved and continues to evolve rapidly. Many of us have watched, appalled, as Cary Grant or other star of a classic movie from as late as the 1960s or later downs a series of cocktails, hops into his car and screeches off as his friends smile and wave. We know now what earlier generations did not: drunk driving is serious and it kills.

Unfortunately, despite publicity and public awareness, drunk driving remains an epidemic across America. As the State of New Jersey Department of Law and Public Safety points out on its Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over web page, almost 9,000 individuals between the ages of 21 and 34 were killed in drunk driving-related accidents in 2009. And that’s just a small percentage of the population.
