Plaintiffs Receive $2.51 Million Settlement for Injuries Sustained in Collision With Drunk Driver

A Wake County mother and child were injured during a collision with a drunk driver. The plaintiffs have settled their claims against the driver and the establishments that served him for $2.51 million, the plaintiff’s attorneys, Winston Kirby and Andrew Avram reported.

According to the plaintiff’s counsel, their clients were struck by a drunk driver who was traveling the wrong direction down the highway and struck the plaintiff’s vehicle head-on. The accident resulted in permanent facial and arm scarring, a fractured arm, and abrasions to the mother, and minor injuries to the child in the back seat.

Receipts from multiple bars where the driver was served the day of the accident indicated that the driver would have been extremely intoxicated, the plaintiff attorneys reported. According to Kirby, the driver had no memory of the events of the day after the second bar he visited, nearly five hours before the wreck.
