Husband was hit by a car by a man who blew a .07 BAC. Can he be hekd liable?

If you have not yet done so, I strongly encourage you to speak to an experienced personal injury attorney about your husband's case.  The other driver's insurance company will be investigating the accident, and it is important to have someone on your side when dealing with their insurance representatives.

Dear Anonymous: If you have not already done so, you and your husband will definitely want to contact an attorney immediately to discuss the circumstances of the incident and evaluate the merits of bringing a third-party liability claim against the driver who struck your husband.  If your husband had a right to be standing where he was standing at the time of contact, and if it was reasonable to do so, then it would appear that the other driver was negligent and could be liable for your husband's damages, including medical expenses, lost earnings, and/or non-economic damages such as pain and suffering.  Additionally, if your husband has automobile insurance and carries uninsured/underinsured motorist coverage, there may be additional funds available to cover his damages in the event that the other driver lacked insurance or had minimal coverage.  It would be necessary to examine your automobile insurance policy to see if such coverage applies under this scenario.   An experienced personal injury law firm can help you navigate the insurance process and ensure that your husband has a fighting chance for compensation as Indiana law allows.  We welcome your phone call to discuss the facts of your claim through a free consultation.   I hope that your husband feels better with time and that he seeks the necessary medical attention while the injuries are still recent.   Sincerely, Lance R.
