Learn About Tavern Liability and Dram Shop Claims
Is a bar, tavern or restaurant liable for your alcohol-related injury?
Drunk driving accidents are not always the sole responsibility of the individual who was driving under the influence. Bars and restaurants can also be held accountable for over-serving alcohol to patrons who later cause drunk driving accidents. Dram shop laws say that a bar that serves alcohol to someone who is already visibly intoxicated is liable for injuries that the patron causes to another.

Bars and restaurants in Ontario may be liable when they over-serve alcohol to patrons that drive.
