Waco Drunk Driving Lawyers
PURSUING JUSTICE FOR INJURED VICTIMS
The organization Mothers Against Drunk Driving (MADD) reports that, since its founding in 1980, the number of drunk driving accidents has been cut in half. Despite this, however, drunk driving accidents continue to injure and kill innocent people every year in the United States. The victims of these accidents can be left with extreme physical injuries, sometimes resulting in permanent disabilities that are very costly.
At the Law Offices of Vic Feazell, P.C., we know the damage drunk drivers can have on Waco families, causing physical, emotional, and financial harm. Because of the substantial toll drunk driving can have on innocent people, those who choose to drive while under the influence should be held responsible for the repercussions of these accidents, providing the victims with the compensation and closure they need.

COSTS OF DRUNK DRIVING
Being hit by a drunk driver often causes not only physical harm, but financial burdens as well.
Some of the common costs victims of drunk drivers have to face include:
- Emergency medical transport (EMS ride)
- Emergency surgery
- CT-Scan or X-Ray
- Subsequent medical attention
- Vehicular damage
- Vehicle replacement
- Time and wages lost at work
All of these costs can be devastating to face, particularly when you are the victim of another person’s irresponsible and dangerous behavior.
Injuries Caused By Drunk Driving Accidents
Despite rising awareness of the dangers of drunk driving and national campaigns to decrease this dangerous activity, thousands of people are charged with drunk driving annually. While not all of these drivers cause accidents, the unfortunate reality is that many do, causing numerous people to be seriously injured. From broken bones and lacerations to head and brain trauma to spinal cord injuries, drunk driving accidents can result in a variety of severe and traumatic injuries. While our team at the Law Offices of Vic Feazell, P.C. knows that dealing with such injuries can be extremely difficult, the drunk driver who caused the accident can usually be held accountable for the consequences of their actions, making it somewhat easier for victims to get the treatment they need.
Drunk driving accidents often cause serious physical injuries to those who are hit. For instance, the following are among some of the most common injuries from drunk driving accidents:
- Cuts from broken windshield
- Neck / head injuries
- Whiplash
- Blood loss
- Loss of consciousness
- Brain injuries
- Broken bones / fractures
- Contusions / bruising
Unfortunately, these are only some of the possible injuries in an accident involving a drunk driver.
