In some drunk-driving cases, the investigation leads back to the place where the alcohol was served.

📌 Start Before the Crash

We want to know where the driver was drinking, how long they were there, and who was serving them.

Receipts, credit card records, surveillance video, witnesses, and statements from employees can help piece together what was happening before the driver left.

And you want to start looking for that evidence quickly. A witness’s memory isn’t going to improve six months later, and surveillance footage doesn’t necessarily stick around.

📌 When a Bar or Restaurant Could Be Responsible

In Massachusetts, bars and restaurants aren’t supposed to keep serving someone who is visibly intoxicated.

What does that look like?

Maybe the person is slurring their words, having trouble standing, acting noticeably impaired, or showing other signs that the staff should recognize.

Receipts can help show how much alcohol was ordered. Witnesses or surveillance video may help show how the person was acting while they were there.

This type of case is often called “liquor liability” or a “dram shop claim.”

📌 What About a House Party?

The law treats private hosts differently.

Massachusetts courts have looked at whether the host actually supplied the alcohol or controlled who had access to it. Simply owning the house where people were drinking doesn’t automatically make someone responsible for what a guest does later.

📌 Why Look Beyond the Driver?

A drunk-driving crash can cause injuries that cost more than the driver’s insurance covers.

A personal injury attorney investigating the crash should look at everyone who may have contributed to what happened and every legitimate source of compensation available to the person who got hurt.

If a drunk driver has seriously hurt you, you want an experienced personal injury attorney looking at the hours before the crash as carefully as the crash itself.

10/13/2026

After a drunk-driving crash, one of the first questions may have nothing to do with what happened on the road.

It may be: **Where was the driver drinking before they got behind the wheel? ****

In some Massachusetts personal injury cases, what happened at a bar or restaurant before the crash can become part of the investigation too.

Watch this week’s video to see what attorneys may look for.

You’d think getting your workers’ comp claim approved would mean the payments start coming. That’s not what happened to Harmoni.

Her claim was approved, the details were documented, and she still wasn’t getting paid. So she started looking for help and found us through the reviews people had left online.

Within a day of reaching out, we were setting up an in-person meeting with her to go through the case and figure out what was happening.

When you’re hurt at work and the insurance company isn’t doing what it’s supposed to do, you need someone who knows how to step in and deal with it.

Jim worked directly with Harmoni on her case, and Suzanne and Ann were there throughout the process to answer questions and keep her updated.

That’s how we want you to feel when you work with us: like you have a team paying attention to your case and people you can actually reach when you need an answer.

If your workers’ comp claim has been approved but you’re still not getting paid, don’t assume you just have to wait it out. Talk to an experienced workers’ comp attorney and find out what should be happening with your claim.

When you’re seriously hurt in a car accident, and the driver who caused the crash is arrested, you should have 2 attorneys representing you.

The district attorney handles the criminal case. A personal injury claim is how you pursue the treatment you need, recover lost pay, and seek compensation for what the crash has cost you.

👉 The Prosecutor Has a Different Job

If the reckless driver is charged with OUI, leaving the scene, or another crime, the Commonwealth is focused on proving that criminal charge.

Your personal injury attorney is focused on you: your injuries, your treatment, your income, and the evidence that supports your claim.

👉 The Evidence Can Affect Your Injury Claim

Police reports, witness statements, photographs, video, and statements made by the driver are all evidence.

What the driver tells police right after the crash can be especially important if their story changes later when they’re talking to an insurance company.

👉 Your Injury Claim Won’t Depend on a Criminal Conviction

The criminal case and your personal injury claim follow different legal standards.

Even if the criminal case doesn’t end in a conviction, you can still pursue a civil claim against the driver who caused the accident.

If you were hurt in a crash that also resulted in criminal charges, your injury claim should be handled by an experienced personal injury attorney who knows what evidence to look for and how to use it.

10/06/2026

What happens to your personal injury claim when the other driver is facing criminal charges too?

In Massachusetts, an OUI, reckless driving, or leaving-the-scene case can move forward separately from your injury claim. And if nobody is paying attention to your side, important evidence can get harder to find.

Watch the video to see why that split matters.

It’s part cleanup, part community activity, and a nice reminder that taking care of Walpole is something neighbors can do together.

If you have kids, friends, coworkers, or a neighbor who loves a good fall activity, check this one out.

A good local law office becomes part of the community.

They should be a place you know to call when you’re unsure whether a problem is serious or who you should talk to first.

Our conversations don’t always turn into a case for us, and we’re ok with that.

We might refer you to a firm better suited for your case, add a little context about what’s going on so you know what to do next, or tell you you better get in gear before a simple problem becomes harder to fix.

At Brady Law, we’re proud to be that kind of resource for Walpole and the towns around us.

We help with personal injury, workers’ compensation, real estate, criminal matters, and select business issues.

But more than that, we try to give people a steady place to start when something legal lands in their lap.

That’s what local firms are supposed to do.

09/29/2026

Our firm’s known for representing our neighbors in workers’ compensation and personal injury cases, but there are other ways we can help.

So, while we are best known for helping people who’ve been injured, we can also help with real estate closings and some kinds of criminal charges, although NOT the kind this area is becoming famous for!

That’s just life in local law practice.

People don’t always know exactly what kind of help they need. They just know something big and scary is happening, and they need a straight answer from someone they can trust.

If you have a legal issue and you’re not sure how serious it is or what to do, call or email our Walpole office.

And if you want to learn more about your rights and local legal issues, you can follow us here.
