Arlington Drunk Driving Accident Lawyer

Arlington's Entertainment District — home to AT&T Stadium, Globe Life Field, Six Flags, and dozens of bars and restaurants — means drunk driving is a particular risk, especially on game nights and weekends. If a drunk or impaired driver caused your injuries, you may be entitled to more than just compensatory damages. Texas allows punitive (exemplary) damages in cases involving intoxicated drivers under Civil Practice and Remedies Code §41.003, as drunk driving is treated as grossly negligent conduct. We pursue every available avenue of recovery — including the driver's personal assets, their employer if they were on duty, and any dram shop liability against establishments that over-served them.

What You Can Recover

Texas Law — Key Facts

You have two years from the date of your accident to file suit in Texas (§16.003). Texas modified comparative fault (§33.001) allows recovery even if you were partially at fault — as long as you were less than 51% responsible. Your damages are reduced by your percentage of fault.

Never accept a settlement without speaking to an attorney first. Initial offers rarely reflect the true value of your claim.
