Car Accidents in Michigan

Throughout Michigan, car accidents involving children remain a serious concern. Statistics show that thousands of minors are hurt each year in crashes statewide. Whether as passengers or pedestrians, children face heightened risks due to their vulnerability and limited ability to protect themselves during a collision.

After a crash involving a minor, several steps are especially important:

• Medical Documentation: Children may not always verbalize symptoms clearly. A full medical evaluation ensures injuries are identified and treated early.
• Witness Interviews: Gathering details from those nearby can provide critical insight, especially when the child cannot clearly recount the events.
• Vehicle Restraint Use: Investigators will assess if the child was properly secured in a car seat, booster, or seatbelt based on their age and size.
• Impact on the Family: Emotional trauma following a crash can affect not just the child but the entire family unit, influencing the potential for a broader claim.
• School and Activity Disruption: Missed classes, therapy sessions, or sports can also factor into damages when calculating the full impact of the crash.
• Legal Protections for Minors: Michigan law provides special considerations for child victims, including court approval for injury settlements.

When a child is injured in a crash, it is especially important to seek legal help right away. A trusted Detroit car accident attorney can guide families through the legal and emotional process while protecting the child's rights and future.
