The victims of these tragic and needless auto collisions deserve compensation for the physical and mental pain caused by negligent drivers. Driving Under the Influence of drugs and/or alcohol (DUI) and Driving While Intoxicated (DWI) are inexcusable and illegal behaviors. If you or someone you love is a victim of this irresponsible trend, you need to contact a legal expert in DUI injuries.
