Mexico, MO residents are vulnerable to DWI accidents. Find the legal help you need from Harper, Evans, Hilbrenner & Netemeyer

In 2014, 205 Missourians were killed in drunk driving incidents while 3480 were injured. Every victim of drunk driving deserves to see justice for their injuries or the loss of their family member. Fortunately, Missouri laws regarding drunk driving are strict. If someone is found to have a blood alcohol content of .08 or higher, they will face criminal charges, a suspension of their license, and even fines or jail time. The severity of the punishment depends on the severity of the crime. Those with multiple drunk driving offenses could have their license revoked for 10 years, along with additional punishments. The state will bring drunk driving offenders to justice in the criminal sense, but what about in civil court? If you or your loved ones were injured or killed by a drunk driver, you have the right to file a civil case against the at-fault party. 

 

Injuries resulting from a drunk driving accident fall under Missouri’s personal injury statute of limitations, meaning you have five years to file a personal injury suit against the driver who devastated your family. Harper, Evans, Hilbrenner & Netemeyer will fight for your family so you can devote your time to personal healing. Reach out to our DWI accident lawyers. We treat your family with care and compassion while taking on drunk drivers with aggressive and proven legal tactics.

Common questions about DWI accidents in Mexico, MO

  • What damages can I recover after I was injured in a DWI accident?

    If you or a loved one was injured in a drunk driving accident, you are able to recover both economic and non-economic damages. Economic damages include the cost of medical bills, auto repair, and lost income. Non-economic damages include things like mental anguish or pain and suffering. When someone is killed by a drunk driver, the victim’s family may recover funeral expenses and loss of companionship damages. Damages owed will depend on the victim’s injuries, cost of care, and wage earning potential. 

  • My child was killed while riding in a car driven by a drunk friend. The friend also passed away. Can I be compensated if the drunk driver died, too?

    Yes. If the drunk driver who injured or killed someone also dies in the accident, you may still file a claim against their insurance company. Harper, Evans, Wade & Netemeyer’s DWI accident attorneys will help you understand how to proceed with a suit against someone who has passed away.

  • I was paralyzed by a drunk driver and can no longer work. How can I pay for my medical expenses if I can’t work?

    In a personal injury case where the injury you sustained prevents you from working temporarily or permanently, you can seek damages for lost wages. Whether you are out of work for a few months or forever, Harper, Evans, Wade & Netemeyer will fight for the money you need to cover the cost of medical care and living.

  • Can I sue a restaurant or bar for overserving a guest who later caused a death in my family due to their drunk driving?

    Thanks to Missouri’s dram shop law, you can sue a commercial establishment when it is proven they willfully overserved a clearly intoxicated individual and continued to serve them. Shop employees are responsible for observing customer behavior. If the shop employee believes the customer is intoxicated, they should stop serving the person. However, not everyone makes good judgment calls. When a bar or restaurant fails to stop serving someone and that individual causes injury or death in a drunk driving accident, you may file suit against the establishment. If a person became drunk on private property, you cannot sue the host or property owner.
