Car Accidents in Michigan

No one can truly prepare for the impact that a car accident can have on their life. Unfortunately, many people involved in crashes are left with serious, long-lasting injuries that change their lives forever. Some of the most common injuries seen in vehicle collisions include:

• Loss of Limbs: In severe accidents, victims can lose a limb due to the force of the collision or as a result of necessary medical procedures following the crash.
• Nerve and Tissue Damage: This type of injury can lead to long-term pain, limited mobility, and other complications that may affect a person’s quality of life.
• Spinal Cord Injuries: Damage to the spinal cord can result in partial or complete paralysis, requiring lifelong care and adaptations to daily living.
• Severe Hemorrhages/Bleeding: Serious accidents can cause internal or external bleeding, which may require immediate surgery and prolonged medical care to prevent further complications.
• Cuts and Lacerations: Although some cuts may heal, deep lacerations can lead to significant scarring and, in some cases, require reconstructive surgery.

These injuries—and many others—can have a devastating effect on a person’s life. Victims often face not only the pain and recovery process from their injuries but also the challenge of dealing with the emotional and financial strain that follows. Extensive medical treatment, such as surgeries, hospital stays, and medications, may last for days, weeks, or even longer. After the initial medical care, many victims need months or even years of therapy and rehabilitation to regain as much function as possible.
