Q: Attorney Tully, I have another question about going after a bar for serving an intoxicated driver who then kills someone. Do these cases usually go all the way to trial?
A: No, many Dram Shop/Wrongful Death cases against bars/taverns are settled (sometimes even without filing a lawsuit). That is no guarantee in your situation because each case is different and results vary. However, bar insurance companies understand they are at risk in these cases. For example, a Dram Shop case in Philadelphia recently settled a case for $1 million when an intoxicated driver slammed into a taxi and killed the taxi driver. Call me. No recovery/no fee.
