Michigan Personal Injury Lawyer

What is a personal injury lawyer? The most common explanation is a lawyer who helps someone who has suffered personal injuries as a result of another's negligence.

But in the State of Michigan, unlike many other states, a lawyer who markets himself or herself as a Michigan personal injury lawyer does not need to hold any special qualifications, training, certification or licensure to say he or she is a personal injury lawyer. In fact, many of the most aggressive lawyers and law firms that you will see advertising on the internet or in yellow page ads for personal injury cases in Michigan do not even handle these cases. Too often, lawyers who say they practice personal injury law will also be advertising for all sorts of completely different types of cases: from divorce to drunk driving, criminal to contracts, family law to medical malpractice, product liability law to probate law. How often have you seen a lawyer marketing himself or herself on the internet as a personal injury attorney along with fifteen other completely different and unrelated areas of law? Many if not most of these lawyers do not even practice personal injury law.

Total Personal Injury Accident Specialists

Michigan Auto Law is different. We are Michigan personal injury lawyers. We do not pretend to do anything else, nor do we want to. In fact, our law firm is different from every other law firm in Michigan because we are personal injury attorneys who specialize in only one area of law. We are the largest personal injury law firm specializing exclusively in Michigan car accident, Michigan truck accident and Michigan wrongful death cases. We handle only these areas of law and only help people who have suffered personal injuries as a result of these accidents.

Does this mean we cannot help you if you or a loved one has suffered serious injury or death as a result of other areas of personal injury, such as medical malpractice, dog bite, or product liability? Of course not. All five founding partners have served on the Executive Board of the Michigan Trial Lawyers Association at one time or another in the course of our 50 year history. Today we currently have 3 lawyers serving on the MTLA's Executive Board. One of our attorneys is currently the President-Elect of the Michigan Trial Lawyers Association. Executive Board lawyers are a select and small group of Michigan personal injury lawyers from around Michigan who are recognized by their peers and the bar as leaders in their field. That means that we know the best medical malpractice lawyers, the best product liability lawyers and the best dog bite lawyers in Michigan , throughout the state, and for each area of personal injury. Feel free to contact us and we will be happy to put you in touch with a Michigan personal injury attorney who is recognized as the very best in his or her field, at no charge or cost to you.

Personal Injury from Defects

Of course, if you or someone you know has suffered serious injury or death as a result of a product liability defect or failure to a truck or automobile, most often after a car accident or an accident involving a truck, then Michigan Auto Law's personal injury lawyers and attorneys may be able to help you. One of our attorneys has tried serious product liability cases, most often involving car defects, for over 30 years throughout the United States and over our 50 year history we have seen nearly every type of product failure to a car or truck imaginable.
