Re: Responsibility

While the laws vary from state to state, Usually you can hold a bar opwner liable for your injuries if you can show that he knew that the person he was serving was drunk. In these kind of cases it is very important to do an immediate investigation, because witnesses get lost and memories fade. find a lawyer quickly.
