A claim that often needs a little more explanation is a dram shop or liquor liability claim. This is a claim against a bar that overserved a patron, which led them to get into an accident and injure someone else. This, in turn, leads to a situation where the injured person makes a claim against both the intoxicated driver and the bar that served them.
That is basically what a dram shop claim is, but it requires the bartender or group of bartenders to know what each one of them is doing and to be able to observe someone who is being served, looks perfectly fine, but is not. Whether or not they were serving someone who was obviously intoxicated is where the challenge is in these cases. This is why it is important to contact an attorney immediately, so we can quickly investigate and assess the situation.
