Driving can be extremely dangerous, and tens of thousands are killed each year in car crashes across the country. In 2011, there were 889 people killed in 834 collisions in Michigan. Nearly half of those killed in auto accidents across the state were restrained at the time of the collision. The number of people killed in traffic accidents in Michigan increased to 985 in 2019, and nearly 75,000 people were injured in car crashes in the state that year.

Car accidents are the leading contributor to death and serious injuries in the United States. Statistics show that more fatal collisions take place each year, and the risk of sustaining severe injuries in a collision is more likely than you think. Even in non-fatal crashes, the resulting injuries can be life-changing. This can cause victims to be saddled with expensive medical bills while being unable to return to work to cover the costs. This difficult financial and emotional situation can quickly overwhelm innocent victims. Making sure you get the compensation that you need to make a full recovery after a serious car accident is critical, and that is why injured parties need to consult with a qualified attorney in order to maximize their chances of a successful personal injury claim.
