Our thoughts go out to those injured as a result of this collision.
A car crash can have a devastating impact on your life. Unfortunately, many people across Michigan suffer serious injuries or even lose their lives in vehicle accidents each year. In fact, motor vehicle collisions are among the leading causes of accidental injuries and deaths statewide. After being injured in a car crash, victims have the legal right to file a personal injury claim against the party responsible for the accident.
Michigan’s legal system operates under the principle of "comparative negligence" when it comes to personal injury claims. This means that in order to seek compensation for your injuries, you must show that the other driver was at least partially responsible for causing the accident.
However, the degree of fault assigned to each party plays a crucial role in determining the outcome of your claim. If you are found to be more than 50% responsible for the accident, you will not be eligible to recover non-economic damages, such as compensation for pain and suffering, emotional distress, or loss of enjoyment of life.
Even if you are partially at fault, you can still seek economic damages, such as compensation for lost wages, medical expenses, and other financial burdens resulting from the crash. To maximize your recovery, it is essential to prove that the other driver’s negligence contributed to the accident. Having a Midland car accident lawyer by your side can help ensure you build the strongest possible case with clear and convincing evidence.
