After an Accident
At the Law Offices of Laurence C. Tarowsky, we are committed to helping you find justice after being seriously injured in an accident that was caused by someone else’s decision to drive drunk.

Luckily, with the help of our legal team, your interests will be effectively represented throughout the case.

Dram Shop Laws in NY
The state of New York has laws in place that hold establishments, such as bars and restaurants, accountable for over-serving customers that proceed to cause injuries and property damage in an accident. These are known as the Dram Shop laws. If you can prove that an establishment either continued to serve a visibly intoxicated person or a person under the age of 21 who then caused your accident, you may be able to recover additional damages.
Recovering Damages
The burdens of being a victim of a drunk driving accident can be significant and permanent. You may be suffering from serious injuries, such as traumatic brain injuries, spinal cord damage, permanent scarring, and more. These injuries may only be the first of many hardships you face as a result of the accident. You may also be reeling from emotional distress, the inability to return to work, and the loss of enjoyment of life. Retaining the services of an experienced personal injury attorney from the Law Offices of Laurence C. Tarowsky may allow you to recover significant compensation for burdens that are both economic and non-economic in nature. Economic burdens may include medical bills, lost wages, and more. Non-economic damages can include compensation for other burdens, such as the loss of enjoyment of life, pain and suffering, emotional distress, among other things.
