Indianapolis Social Host Liability Attorneys

Preventing drunk driving accidents is a communal responsibility. All individuals and institutions that are in a position to provide an individual with alcohol must do so carefully and safely. When accidents take place because a visibly intoxicated person was provided with additional alcohol, those who provided this additional alcohol need to be held accountable for their irresponsible actions.

Some states have made impressive steps forward to punish those who allow people to become dangerously intoxicated. One measure that has been enacted in many states, including Indiana, is a law known as “social host liability”. This law states that if a person (or group of people) is throwing a party at a private residence and provides alcohol to a person who is clearly intoxicated, or to a minor, the hosts can be held responsible for any accidents or injuries caused by the intoxicated individual.
