We have all heard the saying “Don’t drink and drive”. Yet, despite how often this phrase is repeated and how much evidence there is to prove drunk driving is not just serious but possibly deadly, thousands of drivers get behind the wheel each day after consuming alcohol. Drunk drivers are a very real threat on the road, contributing to one out of every three car crash related deaths. On average, once every 53 minutes, somebody in the United States is killed in an alcohol related crash. There were 299 drunk driving deaths in the state of Georgia in 2011 alone. These are staggering statistics for a culture who is educated about the dangers of drinking and driving beginning at a very young age.
If you or somebody you love has been injured or killed as a result of an alcohol related crash, that person should be forced to take responsibility for the harm they caused. Contacting a drunk driver collision attorney can be the first step in making the at-fault driver accountable for the crash they caused. Financial restitution in the form of medical expenses, lost wages, and emotional distress are typically awarded to the victim of a drunk-driving related crash. Punitive damages may also be awarded, and a drunk driver collision attorney can help obtain punitive damages to the victims of these accidents.

Jack “Sonny” Henderson’s evening jog ended abruptly two years ago when a pair of pit bulls attacked him on Clinton Road.
Monday, Bibb County State Judge William P. Adams awarded the 65-year-old retired postal worker a $350,000 judgment based on his injuries, medical treatment and lingering effects.
Shortly after the attack, Henderson said he would have bled to death in the street if it weren’t for two women who stopped to help.

My daughter and son–in–law told me to call the Powers Law Group. Jeff and Adam had represented him in a workers comp accident. They were fantastic. I hired them to help me against a store where I fell down and hurt my back. The store and the insurance company said it wasn’t their fault and I should have watched were I was going. I am so glad I hired Powers Law Group. They filed a lawsuit for me and did an excellent job. They were all there for me anytime I had any questions about my case. ~ Elizabeth C.

Jeff Powers in my book is a lawyer for the people. The everyday common person . You don’t have to worry about Jeff looking down his nose at you when you enter his office.
