Defense Of Venues Serving Alcohol

After injuries in a traffic accident are traced to another driver’s impairment as a likely cause or contributing factor, a dram shop claim becomes possible. During the discovery phase of litigation, plaintiffs’ counsel may contend that a commercial establishment failed to take reasonable precautions to prevent drunk driving.

Common arguments are that servers in bars, restaurants and casinos were careless or perhaps were not well-trained on how to detect inebriation and stop sales to obviously drunk customers. Anyone responsible for having served liquor to the inebriated motorist may be targeted in a civil lawsuit, including the bar’s owner, the bar tender and the business’s insurer.
