Detroit, MI - Injuries Recorded in I-75 Accident at Dixie Hwy

Detroit, MI (August 27, 2023) - On Sunday, August 27, at least one person was harmed in a two-car collision in the greater Detroit area.

The incident occurred at about 4:20 p.m. on the northbound side of Interstate 75, not far from the Dixie Highway exit. Preliminary investigation by Wayne County sheriff's deputies indicates at least two drivers were involved, while the precise circumstances remain unclear. Paramedics were sent to the accident scene in case anybody was hurt, but we haven't heard any updates on their statuses.

The authorities are still looking into what caused the collision, so we don't know much more at this moment.

Our thoughts and best wishes are with the injured and their families as we hope for a speedy and full recovery for them.

Detroit's Serious Car Crashes

Every 10 seconds, a car crash occurs somewhere in the United States, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. It's no secret that vehicle accidents account for the vast bulk of personal injury lawsuits heard by modern courts.

Insurance companies in Michigan are required to cover accident-related expenses for their policyholders, regardless of who was at fault, according to the state's "no-fault" law. First-party benefits are monetary damages, and you may file a claim for them or for non-monetary losses like pain and suffering.

However, victims often express concern that the cost of hiring counsel will be too great. Lawyer-represented injury claimants often get far larger settlements than do self-represented claimants. Also, most personal injury attorneys will not want money from accident victims up advance since they often operate on a contingency fee basis.

There are several ways in which a lawyer may aid a car accident victim.

• If your insurance company refuses to pay the damages you've requested, you may be able to sue them for breach of contract with the aid of an experienced attorney.
• If you were hurt due to another driver's carelessness, your attorney may also file a claim against their uninsured or underinsured motorist coverage.
• In the event of death, significant physical injury, or substantial permanent deformity, an attorney may help you or your family pursue financial damages against the party responsible for the occurrence.
• Your attorney will also represent you throughout any communications with the insurance provider and aid you through the claims process. Your lawyer will investigate all possible settlements, collecting evidence and interviewing witnesses to determine who was at fault in the accident and why you should be compensated.
