How Do Dram Shop Laws Vary by State?
Every state has its own laws that dictate how much or how little a business can be held legally liable for the actions of a drunk driver. Some notable variations include:
- Burden of Proof: The plaintiff typically has to demonstrate that the person who served the alcohol knew or should have known that the patron was drunk or under the legal drinking age. Other factors, such as serving a customer past closing time, may establish negligence in some states.
- Liability: In some states, dram shops are only liable if the person who caused the crash was under the legal drinking age (21).
- Notice Requirements: There may be strict requirements for when a person can bring forth a claim. In some states, the victim has as little as 60 days to give formal written notice to the bar that he or she intends to file a claim.
Because laws vary by state and the time to file a claim may be limited, it’s important that you contact a dram shop attorney as soon as possible to discuss the details of your case.
