Personal Injury Overview

At the INJURY LAW GROUP, our Legal Lions are devoted to representing people who have been injured. We work as a “pride,” or team to get you the compensation you deserve. We should be your first choice for a personal injury lawyer in Michigan. We handle cases involving auto and car accidents, truck accidents, motorcycle accidents, boating accidents, jet-ski accidents, water sports accidents, snowmobile accidents, skiing accidents, pedestrian accidents, construction site accidents, catastrophic injuries, dog bites, nursing home injuries, wrongful death or whatever injury you have suffered.

If you are a victim of a personal injury, you are entitled to financial compensation for your medical and property expenses and incidental costs caused by the accident. You may also be entitled to additional damages to cover future expenses, pain and suffering, or other injuries and expenses. Nevertheless, the insurance company, whose only reason for existence is to compensate you if you are injured, will almost assuredly resist paying you the compensation you deserve.

Do’s and Don’ts of Personal Injuries

In order to make sure you get the compensation you deserve, there are some basic things to keep in mind when an accident has occurred:

1. Don’t deny an injury. It may be instinct to claim that “I’m ok, I’m ok,” but when an accident has occurred, there are many injuries that will not surface until days or even weeks later.
   
   
2. Don’t say the accident was your fault or was not someone else’s fault. Fault is an issue that is often fuzzy at the scene, and is something best sorted out later.
   
   
3. Don’t make a statement to the other person’s insurance company. The insurance company is taking a statement to protect its position, not yours.
   
   
4. Do call the police and medical help.
   
   
5. Do preserve evidence and take pictures.
   
   
6. Do report the accident to your insurance company.
   
   
7. Do call our Legal Lions at the INJURY LAW GROUP, for a free initial consultation.

Q: I've been hurt in an accident and I want to file a claim for my injuries. What's the first thing I should do?

A: There are a number of things you can do in the first few days and weeks after an accident to protect your right to compensation, such as:

1) write down as much as you can about the accident itself, your injuries and any other losses (such as wages) you've suffered as a result of the accident;

2) make notes of conversations that you have with people involved in the accident or the injury claim;

3) preserve evidence of who caused the accident and what damage was done by collecting physical evidence and taking photographs;

4) locate people who witnessed the accident and who might be able to help you prove your case;

5) notify anyone you think might be responsible for the accident of your intention to file a claim for your injuries, especially if a government agency or employee may be involved; and

6) contact a personal injury attorney to evaluate and pursue your claim.
