Yarborough Applegate recently secured a $6.25 million settlement for a family whose lives were upended after a head-on collision with a drunk driver in North Charleston, South Carolina.

We were honored to once again participate in the annual dinner and present this year’s Dram Shop Justice Award to a deserving member of law enforcement.

With the holiday party season at its peak, now is a great time to refresh on what everyone should know about safe alcohol service in South Carolina.

Last weekend, Yarborough Applegate rallied in support of MADD South Carolina at the annual Lowcountry Walk Like MADD fundraiser that raises awareness and funds to eliminate drunk and drugged driving.

Attorney David Lail presented the 2023 Dram Shop Justice Award at last week’s Law Enforcement Recognition Dinner and Training Symposium.

While it’s imperative that individuals refrain from intoxicated driving, licensed drinking establishments and alcohol retailers share a responsibility in keeping our roads safe.

Partner David Lail established the first-ever Dram Shop Justice Award to recognize the role law enforcement plays in addressing a root cause of drunk driving— unsafe alcohol providers.

Yarborough Applegate attorneys have secured more than a $4 million settlement for their client in a wrongful death and dram shop case filed on behalf of the estate of a bicyclist killed by a drunk driver on the 4th of July in 2019 in Mt. Pleasant, South Carolina.

The annual event raises awareness and funds to eliminate drunk and drugged driving.

When businesses commit to safe alcohol service, they play their part in keeping drunk drivers off the roads and making our communities safer.

After a day of drinking on Shem Creek and in downtown Charleston, our client’s intoxicated girlfriend crashed head-on into another vehicle as he slept in the back seat of the car.

In our pursuit of civil justice for victims of drunk driving, our firm works in partnership with local law enforcement to hold all wrongdoers accountable.
