IN: It's Party Time – You May Be Liable

Dear Valued Customer,

It’s the start of the holiday season and we want you to have a fun and safe holiday season. The focus of this issue of the “———————-” is to offer you tips to promote safe alcohol consumption and reduce your exposure to liability.

Forty-three states have ‘social host liability’ laws on their books. Most of these laws also offer an injured person, such as the victim of a drunk driver, a method to sue the person who served the alcohol. In fact, in some states you can be held financially responsible for your guests’ actions after they leave your party. Drivers convicted of drunk driving also face huge increases in their auto insurance rates, which can easily triple or more, if the insurer agrees to continue carrying the offender.

We appreciate your continued business and look forward to serving you.

Kind regards,
