Car Accidents in Michigan

Experiencing a car crash can profoundly affect your life, leaving lasting impacts that extend beyond physical injuries. In Michigan, motor vehicle collisions rank as a primary cause of accidental injuries and fatalities annually. For those injured in such incidents, the legal landscape offers a pathway to seek redress through personal injury claims against the parties at fault.

Michigan employs a principle known as "comparative negligence" in personal injury cases stemming from vehicular accidents. This legal perspective necessitates that claimants show the other party bore a degree of responsibility for the incident. However, the compensation one might be eligible for is significantly influenced by one's own level of fault in the accident. Notably, if an individual is determined to be over 50% at fault, they are precluded from claiming non-economic damages, which cover pain and suffering, emotional distress, and diminished quality of life.

Yet, victims can still pursue economic damages — encompassing medical bills and lost income — critical for recovering from the immediate financial aftermath of an accident. Demonstrating that another's negligence led to the crash is essential to bolster your claim for these economic compensations. Engaging with a knowledgeable Michigan car accident lawyer can greatly enhance the strength of your case.
