HAVE YOU BEEN INJURED IN A CAR ACCIDENT?
Have you been injured in a car accident within the last couple years? The statute of limitations in Michigan for an auto accident is three (3) years from the date of the accident. If you were injured and another law firm or lawyer said you do not have a case, call us!!!
WE ARE AUTOMOBILE ACCIDENT SPECIALISTS
If you have been injured in an AUTOMOBILE ACCIDENT call us today for a free consultation at 586-779-7810. Recent changes to Michigan Automobile laws now make your injuries easier to be compensated. Prior Michigan law made it difficult to make an AUTOMOBILE ACCIDENT INJURY claim. Call us today and get the compensation you deserve for your AUTOMOBILE ACCIDENT INJURIES.
WE REPRESENT VICTIMS OF MALPRACTICE AND SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY ACCIDENTS
We work primarily in Macomb, Wayne and Oakland Counties. But we have represented clients in nearly every county in the state. We only represent the victims of malpractice and serious injuries. We never represent the negligent defendants!
We are local lawyers with considerable experience before the courts of Macomb, Oakland and Wayne Counties. We have a proven track record of getting jury verdicts in cases where the insurance companies have refused to provide the compensation our clients deserve. Our lawyers' abilities, together with their trial success and their exclusive practice of Personal Injury law, compel the insurance companies to pay what our clients are entitled to.
In Michigan it can be difficult for victims of Medical Malpractice to recover adequate compensation. Lobbyists for Health care providers and the insurance industry have obtained tremendous legal protections for doctors and hospitals. For example, there is a cap (a limitation on how much you are allowed to recover) for mental and emotional damages caused by malpractice. Currently that amount is just over $400,000.00.
There are three exceptions to the cap on damages, and death is not one of the three exceptions. The exceptions are: (1) Medical Malpractice resulting in a vegetative state; (2) loss of a limb due to a spinal cord injury; (3) damage to reproductive organs such that you can no longer procreate. If a victim meets one of these exceptions, the non-economic damages cap can be raised to approximately $800,000.00.
Medical Malpractice cases are very expensive, difficult and time consuming. There are very few law firms in Michigan that regularly represent victims of Medical Malpractice. We do this work for victims exclusively. Our medical consulting experts have the highest credentials. We aggressively pursue negligent doctors and hospitals for our clients. We pay up front all of the costs associated with pursuing your Medical Malpractice claims.
We want to share with you some of our recent successes, as well as significant changes in the laws of our state to better serve and educate you, as potential clients. We are always available to discuss with you, your case FOR FREE! If you have a claim we can help you with, we charge a 1/3 contingent fee, to be paid at the end of the claim. We have a NO FEE IF, IF NO RECOVERY GUARANTEE!
Sexual Assault on the Job
Our 18 year old client was sexually assaulted at a national chain restaurant, by a co-worker. Most attorneys would not have taken this case because of the Michigan Workers Compensation Act. However, we successfully got a large settlement for this young woman because of our careful reading and application of the law.
No-Fault Insurance Benefits Denied by the Insurance Company
Our client was involved in a serious automobile accident and the insurance company refused to pay nearly $750,000.00 in bills for his treatment. We filed suit, and within one month, they agreed to pay 100% of the outstanding bills.
