Auto Accidents in Michigan

A motor vehicle accident can be devastating. Unfortunately, more than 50,000 people are hospitalized with injuries every year as a result of crashes right here in Michigan. Far too often, these accidents are preventable. We see countless people hurt as a result of collisions caused by drivers who are impaired by alcohol, under the influence of drugs, distracted, or otherwise negligent. When drivers engage in reckless actions while behind the wheel of their vehicle, it can have devastating consequences for other motorists sharing the road. It is all too common for car crash victims to be left with severe injuries that affect their lives forever.

Many victims have to go through several weeks or even months of medical treatment following their accidents. In severe cases, victims are left permanently disabled and unable to work forever. The unfortunate truth is that many people are unaware of what to do moving forward from their accidents.
