Palestine, TX Personal Injury Law Firms & Lawyers

Assuming you have insurance information and at a bare minimum contact information for this person, and assuming the accident occurred within the applicable statute of limitations (2 years in Indiana), you should pursue a claim with his insurance company. I suggest you consult with a local personal injury attorney to determine if your claim is worth pursuing.

Yes, there's an occupational driving privilege available for drivers with suspended licenses.? See a lawyer or if you absolutely can't afford one go to your county clerk and ask if they have forms and instructions for the application.

You should hire a qualified and experienced injury attorney to pursue a claim for all your injuries, damages and losses caused by this drunk driver. A good injury lawyer will pursue any and all avenues of financial recovery, including her insurance and/or personal assets, any UIM insurance you may have on your insurance policy, and any restitution which may be ordered from the county which prosecutes her DUI case. An injury lawyer will also make sure all health insurance and/or medical payments coverage (this is on an auto insurance policy) covers your medical care as well. Finally, any and all sources of liability should be examined as well. For example, while she is obviously liable for most/all of the damages, there are potential other third parties who could be at fault (the bar or private party where she got drunk if applicable, roadway design, emergency personnel for not moving the vehicle or setting up cones, flashers, etc., and potential others). But yes, you should hire a personal injury attorney for this situation.
