Should I sue?

Clearly you are not at fault and you are injured. At the very least, you should speak with a personal injury attorney to explore your options. Whether or not you will be able to sue will depend on the type of insurance policy YOU carry and/or on the type and nature of your injuries. I would be more than happy to discuss your case with you. www.GhabourLaw.com or call me at 732-967-9110.

You have the right to make a claim against the other individual for past and future medical expenses, lost income and pain and suffering caused by the collision. The first question is whether the drunk driver was insured or not. If not, you have to think about the probability of getting paid before you sue. If he/she is insured, you can start by making a claim. If the insurance company does not make a reasonable settlement offer, then you can proceed with a lawsuit. Whether you are injured enough to make a claim or sue is really your decision in the first place. If so, you should consult with a good New Jersey personal injury attorney about your rights. Good luck.
