Car Accidents in Michigan

Motor vehicle crashes remain one of the leading causes of injury in Michigan. The state experienced over 280,000 reported crashes in 2023, a reflection of ongoing safety concerns on local roads. From busy intersections to neighborhood streets, collisions occur in every part of the state. Factors like distracted driving, poor road conditions, and high speeds contribute to these incidents. After any accident, it’s important to know what steps to take to protect your well-being and your legal rights.

One key area to consider after a crash is how it affects your ability to work:

• Missed Time at Work: Many accident victims are forced to take days or even weeks off from work due to injury. In some cases, they may not be able to return to their previous jobs at all. This sudden loss of income can be difficult to manage, especially when combined with mounting medical bills.
• Temporary or Permanent Disability: Some injuries can prevent individuals from performing essential tasks required by their jobs. Whether it’s a back injury, a head injury, or limited mobility, these complications may qualify as a temporary or long-term disability.
• Career Changes or Retaining Needs: In cases of severe injury, some individuals may be unable to return to their previous line of work. They may need to change careers or undergo vocational training, which adds another layer of cost and time to recovery.
• Lost Future Earnings: Beyond immediate lost wages, accident victims may experience reduced future earning potential. This long-term financial impact can be factored into compensation with the help of an experienced attorney.
• Self-Employed or Contract Workers: Those who are self-employed often face unique challenges. Without employer-provided leave or benefits, they may miss out on critical opportunities or lose clients entirely during recovery.
