Someone else’s decision to get behind the wheel while intoxicated can have life-altering consequences for innocent victims. You do not have to bear the financial burden of injuries that you sustained from a drunk driver’s negligence. If an accident with a drunk driver caused you harm, you may be eligible for compensation.
That’s where we come in. At Cordisco & Saile LLC, we have a nationally recognized team of attorneys ready to fight for you no matter what it takes. Our Pennsylvania drunk driving accident lawyers can seek maximum compensation for your damages and hold the responsible party accountable for their actions.
Our Pennsylvania Drunk Driving Accident Lawyers Are Here To Help You
Proving that the other driver was intoxicated and at fault for the accident isn’t always straightforward. The other driver’s insurance company will do anything it can to avoid paying a fair settlement, even if that means shifting the blame onto you. Our Pennsylvania drunk driving accident attorneys can level the playing field and push back against these tactics.
Insurance companies know our clients mean business when they hire our injury attorneys. We’ve been practicing personal injury law for over 30 years, and we’ve seen our fair share of drunk driving accident cases. Our team has recovered millions of dollars for injured clients, including many drunk driver victims. This experience gives us a strong foundation for building your case and seeking the compensation you deserve.

A Word From Our Pennsylvania Clients
We see our clients as people first and accident victims second. This approach has earned us praise from clients across the commonwealth who’ve sought our help after being injured by someone else’s negligence:
Drunk Driving Laws in Pennsylvania
Pennsylvania’s legal alcohol limit is 0.08 percent blood alcohol concentration, or BAC, for drivers age 21 and older. If a driver’s BAC is at or above this limit, they can receive a criminal charge for driving under the influence. The limit for drivers under 21 is zero, meaning any amount of alcohol in their system can result in a DUI charge.
These are criminal charges separate from any civil action for financial compensation you may pursue as an accident victim. However, if a criminal court convicts the driver of a DUI, this can provide strong evidence establishing the driver’s liability in your Pennsylvania personal injury case. Our DUI accident lawyers will navigate these laws as they apply to your case.
We’re ready to fight for you. Take the first step towards getting the compensation you deserve.

What Type of Compensation Can You Recover After a Drunk Driving Accident?
If your drunk driving accident claim is successful, you can recover compensation for any physical, emotional, and financial damages you suffered from the accident. Common damages you pursue compensation for in Pennsylvania drunk driving accident cases include the following:
- Medical expenses for any treatment of injuries sustained in the accident, including emergency room visits, hospital stays, surgeries, and rehabilitation
- Lost wages for any time you were unable to work due to your injuries
- Lost earning capacity if your injuries permanently limit your ability to work in the future
- Pain and suffering, including physical pain and emotional distress
In a recent case, we obtained a $1.175 million settlement for a Bucks County couple. Another driver struck our clients at a high speed while intoxicated. The female passenger suffered bowel perforations and permanent injuries to her spine. Before the accident, the at-fault driver was drinking at a local restaurant establishment, and the staff continued to serve excessive amounts of alcohol to her even though she was visibly intoxicated.
Seeking Compensation for a Loved One's Death
If a drunk driving accident has caused your loved one’s death, you may be eligible to file a wrongful death claim. In a wrongful death lawsuit, you can seek compensation for damages such as funeral and burial expenses, loss of financial support, and loss of companionship. Our drunk driving lawyers will explain your rights and options for pursuing a wrongful death claim.
"After an accident, not only are people in pain, but they're fearful. They don't know what to do next. At Cordisco and Saile, we know how to fight, we take cases to trial from beginning to end and we never give up on our clients."
