Dram Shop Owners
A premises liability accident is when a person gets injured on another party’s property. When this happens, as long as the injured party is not a trespasser, Illinois law allows the injured party to sue the owner of the property for being responsible for negligence and causing their injury and any damages that occurred. There are various types of responsible parties in premises liability cases. One lesser known type of party is the dram shop owner.
A dram shop owner is the owner of a business that sells alcoholic drinks. They can be found liable for negligence in the event that an auto accident occurs and the person who caused the actual accident was very intoxicated after drinking alcohol that a dram shop owner sold to the person. This can take place in the form of a fight at a sports stadium where one party was belligerent, or in a car accident with a drunk driver. The Illinois Dram Shop Act is meant to give victims the right to sue the party that sold or served alcohol to make the perpetrator so intoxicated. With the help of one of our skilled attorneys, we will be able to help you pinpoint the dram shop owner if you suspect that the person that caused your injuries was under the influence.
