Pedestrian Hit by a Drunk Driver

Question:

What should I do if I was hit by a drunk driver?

Answer:

If you happen to be crossing the street and you get hit by somebody who was DUI, you need to understand that you have rights. You need to understand that that person should not have been behind that wheel. You need to understand that that person is going to be responsible for your injuries. If you feel that that person wasn?t fully at fault or you?re not sure if they were drunk, that?s where an attorney comes in. A skilled attorney can go ahead and conduct an investigation. If they were arrested for a DUI, that obviously makes things a little easier. Even if they weren?t arrested for DUI, it doesn?t mean you are excluded from filing a claim.
