Hialeah Hit by a Drunk Driver
If you have been injured in a drunk driving car accident in Hialeah, attorneys representing the at-fault driver or insurance adjusters may start contacting you and trying to get you to accept a settlement offer, insurance money, or they may try to convince you to give up some of your rights in exchange for a monetary offer.

Before you seek advice from an attorney who is representing your best interests at heart, you should not sign anything or agree to anything.

The Injuries You Sustain in a Car Accident may be More Expensive Than You ThinkIn a DUI accident, you may have sustained a range of injuries, including:
- Amputation
- Spinal cord injury
- Burns
- Internal injuries
- Fractures
- Head injuries
- Soft tissue injuries
- Lacerations and disfigurement or scarring
- Paralysis
These injuries can be very expensive. You may require specialized care, surgeries, physical therapy, at-home care, and other treatments. The costs of all of this can be substantial. Even if you have good insurance, some of these costs may end up coming from your own pocket since insurance carriers may limit the amount of money they will pay in these cases. Some of your claims may be disputed or denied.
Keep in mind, too, that in addition to medical costs you may need to replace lost income, pay for car repairs, and take care of other incidental costs after your car accident. Compensation can help you pay for these additional expenses, too.
