Experienced Felony DUI Defense Attorney
Driving is an inherently dangerous activity and when someone gets behind the wheel drunk, the dangers increase. Some drivers repeatedly get behind the wheel intoxicated and are lucky to never have an accident. Others make that mistake once and the consequences are deadly.
If your drunk driving caused a serious or fatal drunk driving accident, you may be terrified about the consequences you are facing. The first important step is finding an experienced lawyer who can protect your rights. You need someone who has worked through the legal system hundreds of times and has a thorough understanding of what to expect from various courts in the area.
You need my firm — Mace J. Yampolsky & Associates. I have over 25 years of experience defending clients in Las Vegas who are facing charges for drunk driving accidents.
Determining Fault in Drunk Driving Accidents
In some situations, a drunk driver's impaired ability to manage a car is the clear cause of an accident. But there are other situations where fault cannot be so readily identified. If a sober driver caused an accident with a drunk driver, the drunk driver may automatically be blamed for causing the accident just because they had been drinking.
When I work with clients who are facing charges for causing a drunk driving accident, I try to determine who is actually at fault. I talk with witnesses and accident reconstruction experts to get a better idea of what actually happened in the car crash. Often, the cause is not as straightforward as it may have originally seemed.
