Drunk Drivers: A Threat to Victims Throughout Arizona Who Must Be Held Accountable
While many areas of life have undoubtedly improved over time, it’s difficult to see progress when it comes to the hazard of drunk driving. We know that:
- Arizona recently ranked as the state with the eighth-most drunk driving-related deaths in the United States, with 716 victims dying in two years.
- Law enforcement officials in Arizona have made as many as 27,653 arrests for driving under the influence (DUI)
- Thousands of Arizonans suffer severe injuries each year in collisions caused by drunk drivers.
- Any time a drunk driver is on a road, they pose a significant (and unacceptable) risk of harming innocents on and near the roadway
No matter where a drunk driver is in Kingman—Route 66, Interstate 40, Harrison Street, or elsewhere—they are a hazard. It’s no secret that drunk drivers are less capable of:
- Making sound judgments
- Reacting to hazards and changing road conditions as they need to
- Letting restraint overcome their impulses
- Maintaining physical control of a vehicle
- Remaining alert
- Avoiding accidents
Yet, despite these known deficits, impaired motorists often have overconfidence—this combination of impairment and overconfidence is dangerous and sometimes even deadly.
When drunk drivers inevitably cause harm to others in Kingman, Big Chad Law is there for the victims.
Steps to Take After A Drunk Driver in Kingman Injures You or a Loved One
If you call Big Chad Law after your car accident, we will provide advice tailored specifically to you. For now, take our general advice for victims of drunk drivers, which includes:
Being Cautious with Insurance Companies
There is a significant chance you have already reported your accident to your insurance provider. You may have already spoken with a third-party insurer, too. If you have any more interactions with insurance companies, you should:
- Recognize that insurance companies’ motivations and target outcomes do not always align with yours—even as multi-billion-dollar entities, many auto insurance providers prioritize their revenues above all else.
- Know that even your insurance provider may act in bad faith—yes, even victims of drunk drivers can face questionable tactics from insurers.
- Use the utmost caution when dealing with any insurance company (and retaining a Kingman drunk driving lawyer to protect you as soon as possible)
You may eventually choose to hire an attorney from Big Chad Law. This decision will protect you from being a victim of insurers’ bad-faith tactics.
Seeing a Doctor Right Away
This is another step you may have already taken, but it bears repeating. There are several important reasons to seek medical attention, as seeing a doctor will:
- Ensure you get emergency attention, medical imaging, medications, and all other treatments you require
- Provide an official record of the accident (or, at least, the injuries resulting from the accident)
- Provide helpful documentation for the Kingman drunk driving accident lawyer who ultimately represents you
The attorneys at Big Chad Law know many medical providers in Kingman. If you need assistance, we can help you find a qualified provider.
Calling Big Chad Law as Soon as Possible
If you decide to hire a lawyer, you should not wait to find your attorney because:
- We often face a deadline for filing lawsuits related to drunk driving accidents (per Arizona law)
- The sooner your attorney can secure evidence from the accident, the more valuable evidence they can collect.
- If you want to protect yourself from insurance companies and anyone else who might violate your rights, hiring a lawyer is one of the clearest ways to do so
Also, when you hire a lawyer, you free yourself of any responsibilities and concerns related to your case. Your attorney becomes responsible for getting justice for the harm you’ve suffered so you can focus on recovery.

Our Focus Is on Arizona
Attorney Chad Schaub (Big Chad) is a sixth-generation Arizonan. When he graduated from law school, Arizona was the obvious choice for where he opened his firm.
Our focus on Arizona, which includes an office in Kingman, is important because:
- We have connections throughout the state that often prove beneficial to our cases.
- We know the communities where we practice well, allowing us to get to accident scenes, navigate the courts, and handle other case-related duties efficiently.
- Our lawyers feel deeply connected to our clients, as they are often our neighbors.
- Our attorneys are well-versed in Arizona law and practices, as we do not have to spread our attention across other states’ statutes
When your accident happens in Arizona, choose a law firm prioritizing Arizonans.
There Is No Upfront or Out-of-Pocket Cost to Hire Us
Hiring a lawyer shouldn’t be a source of stress. With Big Chad Law’s client-first fee structure, it won’t be.
You do not have to pay us any upfront fee. All case-related costs are our responsibility. Your attorney will receive a percentage of any settlement or verdict they obtain for you. This way, we get paid off our results, and you don’t pay out of pocket for our representation—under any circumstance.
We Go the Extra Mile for Our Clients
We consider the law to be a service industry. Our clients are the ones we serve, and like any organization in the service industry, our client’s satisfaction means the world to us.
Some ways that we go above and beyond in serving our clients include:
- Helping victims injured in accidents get immediate and extensive medical care
- Arranging for clients to see mental health professionals (may relieve their pain and suffering and also help document their losses)
- Working directly with the client’s medical providers helps us keep tabs on recovery and ensure the client is getting the help they need
- Always being available to our clients, who can text, call, or email their lawyer (or any other support staff) whenever they want
The Big Chad Law philosophy is to treat our clients not merely as clients but as people. During times of distress—where the aftermath of a drunk driving accident certainly qualifies as—this human approach is much-needed and appreciated by those we represent.
We Are Willing to Sue and Go to Trial (When We Need To)
Many civil cases end with settlements. The Kingman drunk driving accident lawyers at Big Chad Law often seek settlements for our clients because:
- Most of our clients are eager to move forward with their lives, and settling tends to be the fastest way to resolve drunk driving accident cases (and other civil matters)
- Though we often have to fight for fair offers, liable parties are often willing to pay clients fairly—why continue to fight when you’ve received a fair offer?
- There are risks and costs to trial, so settling can be an acceptable outcome for all parties involved in a drunk driving accident case.
With the possible benefits of settling noted, you must know that we don’t see settling as the only option. We also file lawsuits and take cases to trial, generally when liable parties are unwilling to provide a fair settlement to our client.
We Have Held Many Drunk Drivers Accountable
Experience is not a problem when you choose Big Chad Law to hold a drunk driver accountable for you. It’s worth noting that:
- Drunk driving accident cases have always been important to Big Chad Law, as improving the safety of communities like Kingman by holding drunk drivers accountable is our mission
- We have successfully delivered compensation to many victims of drunk drivers (through both insurance claims and the legal process)
- Our attorneys can work with local law enforcement, including the Kingman Police Department, when it helps our cases
Proving that the driver was drunk at the time of your accident is important, but that is not enough to win a case like yours. Our Kingman drunk driving accident lawyers know what is necessary to prevail in a civil drunk driving accident case, and we’re ready to go to bat for you.
