Do Dram Shop Laws Apply in Your Alcohol-Related Accident in Massachusetts? Contact a Lawyer
If someone got drunk at a bar, then got in a car and was involved in a crash that killed your family member or injured you, you may be able to pursue compensation from sources besides the drunk driver. A bar or restaurant that serves alcohol to an obviously inebriated person may be liable for damages.
Liquor Liability and Negligence
Any institution that was licensed to serve alcohol and knowingly served alcohol to a person who then drove drunk may be legally and financially responsible to compensate the injured. You or your injured family member may need compensation to cover the following:
- Pain and suffering
- Medical bills
- Therapy
- Lost wage replacement
- Other out-of-pocket expenses related to the injury
