The best truck accident lawyer will be specializing in this area of law

If you have been seriously injured in a truck accident, or if you have lost a loved one, the stakes are high for you and your family. You need an attorney who specializes in holding big trucking companies accountable for the harm they cause. You need the best for you, your family and your case and that is what you get with a Michigan Auto Law truck accident lawyer.

We have more than 50 years of experience focusing exclusively on truck accident cases and motor vehicle accident crashes. Steven Gursten alone has litigated over 300 truck accident cases. Our attorneys are regularly referred truck crash cases by attorneys all over Michigan and the country. Our firm has co-counseled with attorneys in other states as well, resulting in some of the largest reported truck crash settlements and verdicts in several states in addition to Michigan.

Why is it so important that your lawyer specializes in trucking cases?

Truck accident cases are unlike car accident cases or any other type of personal injury case. The injuries are frequently catastrophic or deadly and the legal and evidence issues are often extremely complex. It is too easy for personal injury lawyers who do not understand trucking to lose key evidence, miss layers of additional insurance coverage that may have added millions to a catastrophic or wrongful death settlement, or fail to find other responsible parties to the crash, such as exploring broker liability.

When so much is at stake for you and your family, you need a attorney who specializes in truck accidents. And in Michigan, the best truck accident lawyers are at Michigan Auto Law.

Top-reported settlements and trial verdicts in trucking cases

The lawyer you hire to help you and your family after a truck accident should have a successful and proven track record of recovering the highest, top-reported truck accident settlements and trial verdicts. We do! In fact, our attorneys have recovered more million-dollar results for people injured in these semi crash cases than any lawyer or law firm in Michigan, including the the largest trucking settlement ever by a Michigan lawyer.

The best thing about these settlements and verdicts is they benefit everyone.

These settlements protect the people on whose behalf these recoveries were won.

These settlements make our roads more safe because they force unsafe trucking companies who would otherwise choose to ignore safety and disregard mandatory safety rules to pay attention, because now there are actual consequences to choosing to endanger the public.

These settlements also help our future clients because by having a winning track record our attorneys are able to settle cases faster and for significantly more than other personal injury lawyers who do not specialize in trucking cases and who do not have our track record of success.

Here are just a few examples of our successes:

$34.5 Million – Our team secured the largest-reported tractor-trailer crash settlement in the U.S. for that year. It is the largest truck settlement by an attorney in the state.
$14.3 Million – Our attorneys won this truck accident verdict in Clinton County in a case involving a traumatic brain injury, extensive economic damages and loss of consortium. The defense’s final pre-trial settlement offer was $25,000. This was the largest-reported motor vehicle trial verdict in Michigan for that year.
$13.5 Million – Our attorneys settled a case for a victim in a car vs. tractor trailer crash who suffered major burn injuries.
$10.5 Million – We obtained this truck accident recovery for a woman who was seriously injured when a truck crashed into her vehicle.
$9 Million – Our truck accident lawyers obtained this recovery for a man who lost both of his legs in a rear-end collision. This was the largest pain and suffering trucking settlement of the preceding decade for a rear-end crash in the state.
$6.2 million – This was a confidential trucking death case settlement.

5-Star Client Care, Compassion and Communication

The best truck accident lawyer for you and your family is one who will treat with you with compassion, care, and respect. You need and deserve an attorney who provides personalized service, who is available when you need them, and who always returns your phone and calls and emails.

Like our track record of successful settlements and trial verdicts, we have also have a successful track record of 5-Star reviews from the people we’ve helped, telling us how important it was that we were there when they needed us and what a real difference we made in their lives.

How much does it cost to hire the best truck accident lawyer?

You do not pay us one penny in attorney fees unless and until we get a winning settlement or trial verdict in your truck accident case. We work on a one-third (1/3) contingency-fee basis which means your payment of our fee is “contingent” on our winning your case and getting a successful recovery.

We will not ask you to pay anything up front or out-of-pocket for our attorney fee. And we will never charge you for talking on the phone to answer your questions.

We are as committed to getting a winning settlement or verdict in your case as you are. Our time is our investment. If we can’t win for you, then we don’t get paid. It’s that easy.
