A serious personal injury or wrongful death resulting from a negligent motor vehicle accident is all the more devastating when the reckless or careless actions of the driver are compounded by the irresponsible consumption of alcohol. Hundreds of Missouri and Kansas residents die each year in drunk driving accidents, leaving families devastated and struggling to cope.

Because drunk driving victims and their families can not rely upon state, local, or insurance companies to protect them, Horn Law has a special emphasis in cases involving alcohol or drug impaired drivers who cause injury or death. Protecting a victim of an impaired driver, requires immediate and comprehensive investigations. These investigations not only concern the accident at hand, but center on the past conduct and history of the impaired driver. This type of investigation makes a big difference in maximizing recovery for our clients. At no point, should a victim of an intoxicated driver be unrepresented.

If the drunk driving case involves a commercial driver or someone engaged in business activity, our investigations will be vital in supporting additional claims against the employer.

Our chief goal at The Horn Law Firm during the negotiation and litigation of a personal injury lawsuit is to recover much-needed compensation for medical bills, lost wages and long-term care. In cases involving drunk driving, our legal team takes a personal interest in the long-range ramifications. In recovering full and fair compensation, we hope to discourage negligent actions by businesses and individuals that lead to tragic accidents.
