In Texas and New Mexico, driving while intoxicated is illegal because alcohol impairs judgment. Sadly, some drivers fail to observe this law, which can cause you severe damage.

At Flores Mendez Law, our lawyers fight for injury victims throughout western Texas and all of New Mexico while also providing personal injury counsel in Arizona. Our trial attorneys bring more than three decades of combined experience handling complex personal injury claims.

Helping Hold Irresponsible Drivers And Riders Liable

Intoxicated drivers and riders, either adults or those below the legal drinking age, can be operating any type of vehicle at any time of day, putting countless innocent people at risk. These can be:

  • Car drivers
  • Light commercial vehicle drivers
  • Semi truck drivers
  • Bus drivers
  • Rideshare drivers
  • Motorcycle riders

Our DWI (Driving While Intoxicated) accident lawyer understands how to investigate intoxication-related crashes to build strong claims.

Why Drunk Drivers Are A Hazard On Texas And New Mexico Roads

An intoxicated driver can create dangerous situations and put everyone nearby at risk. These include:

  • Speeding
  • Driving too slowly, thus disrupting traffic flow
  • Inappropriate stopping due to delayed reaction times
  • Easily getting distracted by their devices
  • Swerving between lanes due to confusion and drowsiness
  • Making illegal turns
  • Ignoring traffic signals

If you were injured in such a situation, you can pursue justice with an experienced DWI accident attorney.

Dram Shop Liability

Under Texas and New Mexico dram shop laws, bars, restaurants and other alcohol providers may be liable for drunk driving damages if they continued serving alcohol to visibly intoxicated people who later cause injuries. Our attorney can help pursue claims against all responsible parties.

Common Damages Caused By Drunk Driving Accidents

Drunk driving can lead to damages such as:

  • Injuries to other road users
  • Financial challenges, such as medical bills
  • Changes in quality of life because of PTSD
  • Loss of lives, exposing families to emotional grief

Our DWI accident attorney can work to hold liable parties accountable and pursue full compensation for every loss you suffer.
