Michigan Auto Law is a personal injury law firm that provides Michigan personal injury attorneys practicing exclusively in helping people who have been seriously injured from vehicular accidents. There are many different ways that someone can get seriously injured from a car or motorcycle accident, and over its 50 year history our Michigan personal injury lawyers has helped people who have been injured in almost every way imaginable. We have on the following pages included brief descriptions of some of the most frequently encountered Michigan personal injury accidents that people suffer following a serious car or truck accident.

Some common injuries following personal injury accidents include physical injuries to the head, neck and back, injury to the spinal cord, vertebrae and facet joints, soft tissue injury, whiplash and connective tissue injury to the ligaments, tendons, and fascia, bone injury causing fractures, spinal disc injuries including herniated discs, ruptured discs, extruded discs and bulging disc, and injury to the nerves and spinal cord caused by compression of disc material following injury to the spinal disc.

Many serious car and truck accidents involve brain injury. Whether they are classified as traumatic brain injury or post concussion syndrome or closed head injury by medical doctors from different fields of specialty, all refer to a constellation of impairments that will occur after the brain has been injured. It is important to remember that while the medical classifications for these personal injuries are artificially divided between mild, moderate and severe, the effects of any injury to the brain can be devastating. A brain injury that has been classified as mild can often still result in permanent and disabling impairment for the individual. Traumatic brain injury is usually accompanied by emotional and psychiatric sequalae. This can be as a result of organic damage to the brain itself, usually the frontal or temporal lobe, causing emotional and psychiatric problems or become an acquired condition due to the challenge of learning to deal with the consequences of a sudden and unexpected traumatic event.

Catastrophic injuries, whether physical injuries or traumatic brain injuries, may result in a claim for attendant care benefits. In Michigan, a catastrophically injured driver can still collect substantial attendant care benefits, even if he or she were at fault in the underlying accident.
