Liquor & Dram Shop Liability
When a drunk driver injures someone, the driver is not always the only responsible party. Utah's Dram Shop Act allows injury victims to hold bars, restaurants, and other alcohol providers liable when they serve someone who is apparently intoxicated, or serve a minor, and that person goes on to hurt someone.
Dram shop claims matter because drunk drivers frequently carry minimal insurance. The establishment that over-served them may be the only realistic source of full compensation.
