Settlement with Drunk Driver and Enabling Employer

A father of four sustained a severe brain injury at the hands of a drunk driver in Zionsville, Indiana. After settling with the drunk driver, Bruce Kehoe and Jon Noyes learned the driver had gotten drunk at work with her employer’s knowledge, and that she and her co-workers routinely used alcohol and drugs at work. Bruce and Jon brought suit against the employer and uncovered text messages showing the drunk driver’s manager buying her alcohol and allowing other employees to use drugs at work. Bruce and Jon then obtained an order compelling the manager to produce additional text messages relating to drug and alcohol use at her place of employment, and the case settled at mediation shortly thereafter.
