According to KWTX Texas, a Texas jury convicted a 23-year-old woman of intoxication assault of a police officer after crashing head-on into a police car in College Station, Texas, in January 2010. She was driving 80 miles per hour in a 30 miles per hour zone when she slammed into the police car. The police officer was permanently disabled after the crash and is will never be able to serve as a police officer again. Immediately after the crash, police noticed the driver smelled of alcohol, had bloodshot eyes, and slurred her speech. She admitted to consuming seven drinks before driving, and her blood alcohol content was twice the legal limit.

NST lawyers have many resources at their disposal to help clients obtain maximum damages for their injuries. To illustrate how debilitating injuries affect a client’s life, NST Law can commission a day-in-the-life video. NST Law can consult with medical experts who are able to prove an accident caused a client’s injuries. These medical experts can also document past medical bills and project future medical expenses, rehabilitation costs, and medication fees a victim could require in the future as he or she recovers from injuries. NST Law can also help clients recover damages for lost wages and diminished earning capacity by retaining vocational economists to compute those figures. If a defendant driver has been convicted of DUI, NST Law can utilize knowledge of Tennessee laws to seek punitive damages, awards designed to deter the defendant and members of the public from drinking and driving by punishing the defendant.
