Bars And Restaurants Serving Alcohol Take On Liability

While drunk drivers are ultimately responsible for the harm they cause, bars and restaurants that break the law to serve them should be held accountable too. Under Minnesota dram shop law, there are three actions bars and restaurants take that indirectly cause drunk driving accidents:

  • Illegal sale after hours or on Sunday
  • Sale during business hours to an adult who is already drunk
  • Sale to a minor that leads to their intoxication

The legal time limit — the statute of limitations — for filing dram shop claims is two years in Minnesota. And taking successful legal action in a liquor liability case requires early, vigorous action. Thus, it is best to contact an attorney as soon as possible after you or someone you love has been involved in an alcohol-related accident.
