Seattle, Washington Area Drunk Driving Injury Attorney

Personal Injury Form

A drunk driver who causes an accident faces harsh punishment by the Washington State criminal justice system. But this is little consolation to drunk driving victims and their families whose lives are destroyed by the negligence.

The Compensation You Need and Deserve: 1-866-828-9805

If you were seriously injured in a drunk driving accident, or a loved one was killed, we share your moral outrage. We are highly motivated to hold drunk drivers accountable for the aftermath of their senseless actions. Contact Matthew D. Dubin, a veteran personal injury lawyer with a record of success in securing full and rightful compensation. We represent clients in the Seattle/Puget Sound area, including King, Snohomish, and Pierce counties.

Drunk driving accidents often involve terrible injuries because of the vulnerability of the victim — broadsided in an intersection, rear-ended at a stop sign, struck down in a crosswalk, or hit head-on when the drunk crossed the center line. Although it may seem like a "guaranteed settlement," compensation may be limited by available insurance. Matthew D. Dubin is an accomplished trial lawyer and negotiator who explores every source of compensation to maximize recovery for your losses:

  • The drunk driver's liability insurance
  • Your own uninsured/underinsured motorist policy (even if you were walking or riding a bike)
  • Personal assets of the individual who hit you
  • Dram shop liability of the bar or establishment that over-served an already intoxicated person

Was the Other Party "Legally Drunk"? It Doesn't Matter

The Law Office of Matthew D. Dubin can recover damages regardless of the outcome of the criminal drunk driving case. We investigate as needed to prove every element of the case, including aggressively countering defense claims that our client was somehow to blame. We do not have to prove a certain blood alcohol content (although we will certainly leverage such evidence), only that the driver was operating in a careless manner and represented a menace to society by getting behind the wheel under the influence of drugs or alcohol.

As in any auto accident case, we are dedicated to full compensation, including catastrophic injuries or wrongful death. We also help clients with other issues — access to quality doctors, payment of medical bills, or property damage claims — while your lawsuit is pending.
