FAQs About Drunk Driving Accidents
What should I do immediately after a drunk driving accident?
Your safety comes first. Call 911, get medical attention as needed, and cooperate with emergency responders. Collect names, insurance details, and take photos if possible. Avoid discussing fault or liability at the scene.
Will the drunk driver always face criminal charges?
If police confirm impairment, North Dakota prosecutors may file DUI charges. Their decision relies on evidence like field sobriety results or BAC tests. Criminal proceedings may influence—but do not prevent—your right to file a civil claim.
Can I pursue a claim if the drunk driver faces criminal penalties?
Yes. Your right to civil compensation is separate from the criminal process. You can pursue financial recovery no matter the outcome of the driver’s criminal charges.
How long does a civil claim take after a drunk driving accident?
Timelines vary depending on the investigation, injury recovery, insurance negotiations, and court schedules. Your attorney keeps you informed and explains the next steps as new developments occur.
What compensation may be available after a drunk driving accident?
Financial recovery can encompass medical costs, lost wages, pain and suffering, and related expenses. The exact amount depends on your situation and insurance coverage.
