Car Accidents in Michigan

A car crash can completely change your life, and unfortunately, Michigan sees its fair share of these accidents. They're a leading cause of injuries and deaths statewide every year. If you've been injured in a car crash, you have the option to pursue a personal injury claim against the responsible party.

In Michigan, personal injury claims from accidents operate under the concept of "comparative negligence." This means you must show that the other party was at least partially responsible for the accident. However, your own level of fault is crucial in determining the compensation you can receive. If you're found to be more than 50% responsible, you can't seek non-economic damages like pain and suffering. But you can still claim economic damages, such as medical expenses and lost wages.

Proving that another driver's negligence caused your accident is key to maximizing your recovery. Working with a Michigan car accident lawyer ensures you have strong evidence for your case.
