Drunk driving is both dangerous and illegal in Buford. If you were injured in such an accident, you have the right to hire our lawyer to hold the at-fault party accountable for what they have taken from you and your family.
Kaine Law’s Buford car accident lawyer can handle all facets of your case on your behalf, leaving you free to keep your attention on what matters most: spending time with your family and getting the medical care you need.
Getting Fair Recompense From a Buford Drunk Driver
There is never an excuse to drive drunk, and the person who hit you should pay for their actions. One way you can hold them responsible is by filing a legal action against them with the help of a Buford personal injury lawyer at Kaine Law.
Compensation for Drunk Driving Accident Expenses and Losses
A legal action could entitle you to damages based on all of your losses, including but not limited to money for:
- Loss of wages and job benefits that you could not earn or will lose in the future because of your injury
- Loss of employment or employability for any long-term effects the injury will have on your ability to find and hold down a job
- The diminished value of your vehicle, as well as the cost of getting it fixed or replacing it
- Physical and emotional pain and suffering associated with both your injuries and the traumatic nature of the accident itself
- Physical or intellectual disabilities that prevent you from resuming the lifestyle you enjoyed before
- A loss of independence or quality of life that forces you to ask or pay for help with necessary activities
Our car accident attorney can find proof of all of your losses and figure out how much they are worth. Then, we can contact the drunk driver’s insurance company and ask them to pay that amount.
How Much Is Your Drunk Driving Accident Worth?
It may sound cold to hear that someone is going to “reduce” your losses to a single dollar amount. We understand that money cannot make up for everything you have lost. The compensation you receive from legal action is intended to:
- Help you support your family
- Cover any future losses or expenses
- Force the at-fault party to acknowledge that their actions have hurt you
Every client’s case is completely different, so we cannot know the value of your case until we have heard your story and investigated your injury.

Winning a Buford Drunk Driving Accident Case
To win your case, you must prove that your case meets the four elements of negligence, which are duty of care, breach of duty, causation, and damages. In drunk driving cases, this might involve:
- Demonstrating that the driver had a responsibility to take certain precautions while behind the wheel. For example, O.C.G.A. § 40-6-391 makes it illegal to operate any vehicle while under the influence of any intoxicating substance. Drivers are obligated to avoid such substances.
- Showing that the driver who hit you ignored their responsibility towards you. Evidence may take the form of police reports, traffic camera footage, and eyewitness statements that prove the driver was drunk.
- Connecting the drunk driving incident to your financial losses and bodily injuries. Your medical records, pay stubs, and testimony from experts can help establish this link.
- Proving that your injuries have caused significant strain and distress. For instance, the evidence we collect can show how difficult it is living with your injuries and how your family has had to make adjustments due to your disability or loss of wages.
The Statute of Limitations for Drunk Driving Cases
Something else you must do to make your case successful is get started within the statute of limitations, which you can find at O.C.G.A. § 9-3-33. This law generally grants you two years from the accident date to start legal action in most cases.
The team at Kaine Law urges you to get in touch with us as soon as you receive medical care and are in no physical danger. This allows us more time to review your options and implement the right legal strategy.
