Driving is one of the biggest necessities in our everyday life, but adding alcohol to the mix can turn this everyday activity into one of the most dangerous actions on the road. An accident at the hands of a drunk driver can leave you and your family with a lifetime of physical and mental damage. Unfortunately, for a man in Harris County, the pain and anguish of this negligent act was experienced firsthand, but he is now seeking justice with a lawsuit.
Fighting for Justice
According to the Harris County man, he suffered injuries when the car he was riding in was struck by a male motorist on West Main Street in Galveston County. Although details of the accident have not been made available, the alleged victim filed a lawsuit on April 30th with the Galveston Division of the Southern District of Texas citing negligence on the other driver’s part.
The lawsuit claims that the defendant was intoxicated at the time of the accident and was in possession of unlawful weapons. With the lawsuit, the plaintiff is seeking compensation in excess of the minimum jurisdiction limit of the court plus interest and court costs.
