In this case our client was the unfortunate victim of a drunk driver.  Our client was a pedestrian and was crushed between two cars are impact. She suffered greatly and was very courageous during her recovery.

We investigated several other possible claims.  The only claims were:

1.  A claim for uninsured benefits under the policy that insured the car that our client was getting out of.  That insurance was $100,000.00.

2.  A claim against Foxwoods Casino under the Mashantucket Tribal Laws, Dram Shop which contains a statutory cap of $250,000.00.

In this case the drunk driver was driving an uninsured car.

In order to prosecute this case we had to prove that the drunk driver was served by Foxwoods when she was intoxicated.  For various reasons, this was a challenge.  We had to hire an expert to examine the drunk drivers statements and action under the circumstances, and he was able to offer an opinion that the drunk driver was intoxicated.

We also hired a life care / damages expert calculate the future medical costs, and future economic loss to our client.
