Rear-End Collisions in Michigan

Rear-end collisions are the most often reported form of accident, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. Rear-end accidents account for over 20% of fatal two-vehicle fatalities and almost 29% of all car accidents involving injuries. Every year, about 2.5 million rear-end collisions are recorded, resulting in thousands of deaths and hundreds of thousands of injuries. 

In order to maximize the value of their damage claim, injured plaintiffs must make the right decisions in the moments following an accident. Many victims are unsure how to get the compensation they need after a serious accident. As a result, they may feel isolated and befuddled. When people who have been injured try to negotiate with large insurance companies on their own, they frequently encounter roadblocks and other issues. This only adds to the stress and frustration of the situation. Individuals who have been injured in a car accident may be able to consult with an Allendale Township car accident lawyer about their legal rights and options for filing a claim and, in some cases, receiving just compensation.
