For Victims of Drunk Driving

None of us are immune from the grief caused by drinking drivers. None of our children are bullet-proof. And, regrettably, when those two beliefs are destroyed on a public road and a family experiences crippling injury or death before its' time, the hard part may have only begun.

I believe that representing the family of a victim is more than just sending a few letters to an insurance adjuster. The maze of grand juries, criminal courts, docket calls, investigators, and invitations to plea bargain are all part of the legal process that no family is prepared for. The criminal trial can be devastating. In our experience, few civil lawyers help families with that part of the case. Advice, guidance, and kind support on those matters may be as important to you as the problems of inadequate insurance, resources for medical and funeral assistance, and emergency guardianship or probate proceedings.

My wife Alice, also a trial lawyer alice@wblg.com, my children, and I have spent many years helping publicly and privately. Our work is associated with changing the Texas law to .08 alcohol limits for drivers and zero alcohol tolerance for teens. We want to believe we have made a difference and that we can continue to help.

If you need us, call us.

And we do know how to write letters to insurance adjusters.
