Even the best driver can be injured in a car accident caused by the negligence of another driver. Nearly three out of every ten reported car accidents are caused by a reckless driver, and more than 90 percent of reported car accidents are caused by some form of driver negligence. In Michigan, two of the most common types of reckless driving are driver inattention and speeding.
Car accidents are the leading cause of death and serious injury in the United States. According to statistics, more fatal collisions occur each year, and the risk of serious injury in a collision is higher than you might think. Accidents that aren't fatal can result in life-altering injuries. If the victims are unable to return to work, they may be faced with significant medical bills that they cannot afford. This difficult financial and emotional situation may overwhelm innocent victims. It's critical to get the compensation you need after a serious car accident, which is why injured parties should speak with a qualified attorney to improve their chances of a successful personal injury claim.
Injured victims should contact a Detroit car accident lawyer as soon as possible if they believe a careless driver is to blame for their injuries. Only an experienced personal injury lawyer can assist you in filing a personal injury claim and ensuring that your case is treated fairly. This is nearly impossible to accomplish on your own. Large insurance companies will do everything they can to minimize your just compensation, but we don't want you to feel rushed.
