Bed and pressure sores are often caused because of the negligence of a doctor, nurse or caretaker, and thousands of Michigan residents suffer from them every year. If you or a loved one suffers from bed or pressure sores that were caused by a third party, you may be entitled to compensation.

 

According to Michigan’s statute of limitations, a victim has only a short time to file his or her bed or pressure sore injury case. Unfortunately, many Michigan residents never realize that they were entitled to some type of compensation for their bed sores, or they wait too long and run out of time to file their claim.

 

Pressure and bed sores can turn into serious, life-threatening illnesses. Skin can become so damaged that it never heals, and the muscle, tissue and bone below the sores can deteriorate. The damaged skin and tissue can become inflamed and infected. Bed and pressure sores can heal incorrectly and cause pain for years afterward…sometimes for life. That’s why most legal experts advise that you take action now. The compensation you may receive can be upwards of $100,000 or more, depending on your bed sore injury.
