Why Drunk Driving Cases Are Different

Drunk driving isn't just negligence-it's gross negligence. Nevada law allows victims of DUI crashes to pursue punitive damages, which punish the driver and deter future reckless behavior. That means your case may involve more than medical bills and lost wages-it could include additional compensation designed to make the drunk driver pay for their choices. Insurers know this, which is why they often scramble to settle these cases quickly and cheaply. Don't let them.
