Turn to Drafahl Law Firm if You’ve Been Involved in a Drunk Driving Collision
Drunk driving is a serious issue in Missouri. In fact, according to the Missouri State Highway Patrol, 23.1% of fatal crashes in the state involved drugs or alcohol.
While drunk drivers can be presumed negligent based on their failure to follow the rules of the road, you still must prove that the intoxicated motorist caused (or contributed to causing) an accident and that you were harmed as a result.

Ways a St. Louis Drunk Driving Attorney Can Help You
In Missouri, it is illegal to drive while impaired by alcohol or drugs. When someone violates that safety regulation, it creates a presumption of negligence that can make it easier for crash victims to pursue a claim and win.
In order to be “made whole,” though, you not only must show the other driver was to blame but you also must demonstrate the extent of your damage. This will allow you to recover compensation for medical bills, lost wages, pain and suffering, emotional distress, and other economic and non-financial losses.
At Drafahl Law Firm we can help you:
- Gather medical records, police reports, eyewitness statements, expert testimony, and other evidence needed to prove your case.
- Show the extent of your loss so you are compensated for all the harm you have endured
- Negotiate an out-of-court settlement or litigate your case successfully to maximize the chances of a verdict in your favor.
