Our thoughts go out to those harmed in this crash.
The frequency of major auto accidents has steadily grown in several states, including Michigan, during the last several years. Although eliminating dangerous driving habits, including excessive speed, general carelessness, and driver inattention, might avoid many accidents, the number of crashes resulting in injuries still increases yearly.
However, if the driver was careless, you may file a claim and pursue compensation for your losses, including any injuries you sustained. Victims of auto accidents typically experience severe financial hardships in addition to ongoing physical pain and suffering. Brain injuries, burns, spinal cord injuries, bone fractures, internal bleeding, and other potentially deadly or permanent injuries are not uncommon, even in low-velocity or presumably minor crashes. Other well-known effects for accident victims who have been hurt or lost a loved one without their own fault include PTSD, anxiety, and confusion.
The last thing you need when attempting to recover damages from a vehicle accident that was clearly the fault of the other motorist is further confusion or irritation, yet Michigan's personal injury legislation may be challenging and complicated. Additionally, adjusters routinely use every method at their disposal to prevent giving victims the full and fair compensation to which they are entitled when they try to bargain with insurance companies on their own. For this reason, you must reach out to a Michigan car accident lawyer immediately.
