South Carolina restaurant negligence lawyers on your side
In South Carolina, bar, tavern, and restaurant owners owe you a duty of care. They cannot overserve intoxicated patrons, nor can they serve alcohol to anyone under the legal drinking age of 21. If they do, and that patron or underage child causes a car crash, you can legally hold the establishment responsible in a dram shop claim.
What kinds of DUI injury cases do you take?
McGowan, Hood, Felder & Phillips, LLC represents catastrophic injury victims and families throughout South Carolina whose loved ones have died because of a drunk driver. Our liquor liability and bar negligence lawyers can help if you or your loved one sustained injuries like:
- Traumatic brain injury
- Spinal cord injury and/or paralysis
- Complex, compound bone fractures
- Organ damage
- Facial disfigurement
- Limb loss
- Scarring
- Chronic pain
- Post-traumatic stress
- Loss of vision
- Crush injuries
We can file a dram shop claim against the bar, tavern, restaurant, or other business. If your loved one died, we can seek damages for wrongful death through this type of negligence claim.
What to do if a SC bar overserved someone who caused an accident
If you or your loved one was injured in a wreck by a drunk driver who had been overserved by a bar, restaurant, or other business, seek medical attention immediately. The most important thing to do is take care of your health. Call 9-1-1 and tell the dispatcher what happened; this will alert EMTs and police about the crash.
Other steps you can take if a bar overserved someone who caused an accident and injured you:
- Take photos or videos of the scene and your injuries.
- Call McGowan, Hood, Felder & Phillips, LLC as soon as possible to help ensure all evidence is saved and protected.
- Tell the responding officer the truth about what happened.
- Follow up with your doctors to ensure that your treatments work.
- Save all receipts for associated costs for your care.
If you know the name of the bar, tell our dram shop lawyers. We can subpoena any video surveillance or footage of the bar and/or its parking lot, receipts of the driver, and more.
