Top Michigan truck accident verdict for 2010

Truck accident attorney gets $3.5 million for man injured by two semi-trucks in Jackson County

I’m happy to announce that Michigan Auto Law received the top-reported 2010 personal injury trial verdict for a truck accident in Michigan. This was based upon year-end compilations of all the jury verdicts as reported in the January 10 issue of Michigan Lawyers Weekly.

The case was my truck accident lawsuit for Jim and Kim Fairley. We went to trial in Jackson, Michigan, against Schiber Truck Company. I am especially gratified that my client, a wonderful person who was seriously injured, was able to have such a wonderful result.

This marks the fourth consecutive year that our auto accident lawyers at Michigan Auto Law have achieved the top-reported jury verdict in Michigan for a truck accident or car accident personal injury. Top-reported trial verdicts were listed by Michigan Lawyers Weekly for auto accident and truck accident injury cases in 2007, 2008 and 2009.
