When a Drunk Driver Changes Everything

A drunk driving accident isn’t an accident; it’s a choice. Every time someone gets behind the wheel impaired, they endanger lives. When that choice costs you or your family, you deserve justice that’s swift, decisive, and uncompromising.

At Kwartler Manus, our drunk driving accident attorneys in Philadelphia, move quickly to hold drunk drivers and their insurers fully accountable. Our attorneys don’t wait for police reports or insurance delays; we launch our own investigation, secure evidence immediately, and push your case toward resolution from day one.

If you were injured or lost a loved one in a Philadelphia drunk driving crash, our team will make sure the people responsible face the full weight of both the law and financial accountability.

The Reality of Drunk Driving in Philadelphia

Despite years of awareness campaigns, impaired driving remains one of the leading causes of fatal and catastrophic crashes in the city. These incidents often occur late at night on major routes like I-95, Broad Street, and Roosevelt Boulevard, but they can happen anywhere — from residential intersections to suburban highways.

Our drunk driving accident attorneys represent victims of all impaired driving crashes, including those involving alcohol, prescription drugs, or illegal substances. In each case, our goal is the same: uncover what happened, prove fault, and maximize compensation.

What Victims of Drunk Drivers Can Recover

The aftermath of a drunk driving crash can leave you facing immense physical, emotional, and financial challenges. Compensation in these cases is designed to cover every way the crash has affected your life, including:

  • Medical bills and future treatment
  • Lost income and diminished earning ability
  • Pain, suffering, and emotional trauma
  • Property damage
  • Long-term disability or rehabilitation
  • Punitive damages meant to punish reckless behavior

We make sure every category of loss is pursued aggressively. Insurance companies often try to settle quickly; we ensure they pay what your case is truly worth.

Building a Strong Case

Drunk driving accidents often involve both criminal and civil proceedings. Even if the driver faces criminal charges, you still need to pursue your own civil claim to recover compensation. Our team coordinates with law enforcement, investigators, and toxicology experts to build a comprehensive case.

We move immediately to:

  • Obtain the police report and breathalyzer or toxicology results
  • Interview witnesses while details are still fresh
  • Secure dashcam or surveillance footage
  • Review bar or restaurant records to determine if overserving occurred
  • Identify all insurance policies and responsible parties

      By acting quickly, we preserve key evidence and build pressure on the defense.

      When Bars or Restaurants Are Liable

      In some cases, the establishment that served alcohol can also be held responsible. Under Pennsylvania’s dram shop laws, a bar, restaurant, or club that serves alcohol to a visibly intoxicated person can share legal liability for resulting injuries.

      Our attorneys have handled numerous dram shop cases, uncovering server logs, surveillance video, and witness statements to prove negligence by both the driver and the establishment. Holding everyone accountable ensures your recovery reflects the full scope of the wrongdoing.
