Deadly Auto Accidents in Michigan

Every time you travel in a motor vehicle, you run the risk of being seriously injured, and car accidents kill tens of thousands of people in the United States every year. In 2011, 889 people were killed in Michigan in 834 collisions. At the time of impact, nearly half of those killed in car accidents in the state were wearing seatbelts. In Michigan traffic accidents in 2019, 985 people were killed and nearly 75,000 were injured.

Wrongful death lawsuits are filed when a loved one dies as a result of another party's negligence, with the goal of compensating the surviving family members. Getting that compensation, on the other hand, is frequently easier said than done. The victim's death does not absolve the perpetrator of responsibility. Insurance companies for those who are at fault frequently try to shift blame after a fatal accident. Rather than compensating the family members of the deceased after a fatal car accident, the defendant should compensate the family members to assist with accident-related expenses. You'll need the help of a personal injury lawyer in Maple Grove Township who has years of experience helping wrongful death victims pursue their claims.
