Bucks County Drunk Driving Accident Attorney

BACK TO ARTICLES

Our Bucks County drunk driving accident lawyers help victims of DUI crashes recover full compensation and hold reckless drivers accountable.

Every year, drunk driving destroys lives across Bucks County. When a driver chooses to get behind the wheel while intoxicated, they put everyone on the road at risk. The resulting crashes often leave victims facing devastating injuries, financial hardship, and emotional trauma. At Wilk Law Firm, our Bucks County drunk driving accident attorneys stand up for victims and families harmed by these reckless acts.

We believe drunk drivers — and the establishments that enable them — must be held accountable. Our goal is simple: secure the maximum compensation you deserve and help you rebuild your life.

The Impact of Drunk Driving Accidents

Drunk driving remains one of the leading causes of catastrophic injury and death in Pennsylvania. Alcohol and drugs impair coordination, slow reaction time, and blur judgment — often leading to head-on collisions, rollovers, and high-speed crashes.

Victims of drunk driving accidents may suffer:

  • Traumatic brain injuries (TBI)
  • Spinal cord injuries or paralysis
  • Severe burns and disfigurement
  • Fractures and internal organ damage
  • Amputation or permanent disability
  • Emotional trauma and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD)

These injuries don’t just affect victims — they affect families, careers, and entire futures.

Criminal Charges vs. Civil Claims

While intoxicated drivers may face criminal DUI penalties, victims also have the right to pursue civil compensation for their losses. The key difference:

  • Criminal cases punish offenders for breaking the law.
  • Civil cases provide financial recovery for victims and families.

At Wilk Law Firm, we handle the civil side — pursuing claims against negligent drivers and, when applicable, against bars, restaurants, or other establishments that overserved alcohol in violation of Pennsylvania’s Dram Shop laws.

Compensation You May Be Entitled To

If you’ve been injured by a drunk driver in Bucks County, you may recover compensation for:

  • Medical bills and rehabilitation costs
  • Lost wages and loss of future income
  • Pain and suffering
  • Permanent disability or disfigurement
  • Emotional distress
  • Punitive damages for reckless or intentional behavior

Our attorneys will fight to ensure that every loss — physical, emotional, and financial — is fully compensated.
