Legal Advice for Non-Lawyers: What You Always Wanted to Know

In this episode of The Verdict’s In, HWC Managing Partner Josh Wright answers our most-asked questions that we receive through our tv show, as well as throughout the week and on a regular basis. One of the big topics is “Dram Shop Law,” which is a set of laws that hold bars, restaurants, liquor stores, country clubs, or other establishments that serve alcohol legally responsible if they sell or serve alcohol to someone who is obviously intoxicated or is a minor who then goes on to cause injury or death. This most commonly plays out as a drunk driving accident. Are you held to the same standard if you have a party at your house and serving alcohol? If you have kids home from college who are minors, are you responsible if your child drinks at your home? In other topics, do you have to blow into a breathalyzer if you’re pulled over? Find out answers to these questions, plus many more, with fascinating discussion and examples offered by Josh Wright, and HWC Partner Carter Clay.
