In the attached video, experienced San Diego attorney Elliot Kanter explains the essential steps you should take if you’ve been injured by a drunk driver. With years of experience helping victims of DUI-related accidents, Kanter emphasizes the importance of prioritizing your health and protecting your legal rights from the very beginning.

If you’re hurt in a crash caused by a drunk driver, your first move should be to seek immediate medical care and continue with all necessary treatments. As Kanter points out, many people try to "tough it out" or minimize their injuries, but this can hurt both your recovery and your case. Injuries, especially head trauma or musculoskeletal damage, can have long-term consequences that aren't always obvious right away. Proper diagnosis and treatment from neurologists, orthopedic specialists, or physical therapists can make a world of difference in your healing and the strength of your legal claim.

Kanter also reminds victims that they don't have to face this situation alone. If you’re unsure where to turn for medical care or don’t have a regular doctor, his office can connect you with trusted providers who can treat you and may agree to be paid from the eventual settlement, easing the financial burden during your recovery.

If you’ve been hurt by a drunk driver, you may be entitled to compensation for medical bills, lost wages, and emotional suffering. But navigating insurance claims and legal hurdles alone can be overwhelming, especially while you're healing.
