Michigan Attorneys and Lawyers
Every year in Michigan, there are more than 17,000 personal injury cases, and that doesn’t include traffic injuries. Injuries from automobiles account for more than 2.5 million cases, and medical malpractice accounts for more than 1,000 cases. There are also almost 15,000 restraining order cases every year.
Michigan also has no-fault auto insurance, which means a driver can only be taken to court under certain circumstances. Because of this, some people choose to sue under limited property damage liability law, or mini-tort, which means that the person who is 50 percent or more to blame for an accident ends up paying up to $500 in damages. However, this also means the driver to blame can sue you and make you pay for a portion of the damages. Finding a personal injury attorney can help you avoid paying damages that weren’t your fault.
Also, Michigan has a three year statute of limitations. This means it allows personal injury victims three years in which to file their claims. If personal injury and automobile claims aren’t filed in that time period, victims will not be able to recover medical expenses, lost wages, and property damage. Finding a personal injury attorney as soon as possible can help you win your case and maximize your compensation.
