Lawyers Handling Car Accident Cases – Serving Lansing, Grand Rapids, and Michigan Victims Statewide

Our lawyers who handle car accident cases can help if you or a loved one has been injured as a result of a motor vehicle accident. In a single-vehicle or multi-vehicle car accident, it is important that a proper investigation is conducted immediately.  Often times there may be more than one person or entity responsible for an accident. Hazardous conditions such as damaged pavement or a poorly designed roadway may place a government agency or other third party at fault for your injures.  Moreover, if a driver is cut off in traffic or run off the road by an unidentified driver, the injured victim may be able to pursue a case against his or her own insurance company.  At Sinas, Dramis, Brake, Boughton & McIntyre, P.C., our experienced trial attorneys can help advise you on your legal rights and assist you in obtaining compensation for your medical bills, rehabilitation costs, and pain and suffering. If you or a family member has suffered a personal injury or your property was damaged as a result of a single-vehicle or multi-vehicle  auto accident, our lawyers who handle car accident cases, and represent clients throughout the State of Michigan, including Detroit, Flint, Lansing, Jackson, Grand Rapids, and Kalamazoo, can help.

SUV Rollovers

Sport-utility vehicles, including  trucks and vans, are far more likely to roll over as the result of an evasive maneuver or a vehicle collision than a passenger car because SUVs have a significantly higher center of gravity than a standard car and typically weigh much more than passenger sedans. In fact, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, 60 percent of all SUV fatalities occur in rollover accidents.  As a result, it is the responsibility of the vehicle's manufacturer to ensure that its vehicles are safe and properly designed for general use. The manufacturer must make certain that the vehicle has sufficient rollover protection, and that any prospective owners are aware of the unique risk that driving an SUV poses to its occupants.

If you have been injured or a loved one has been killed in a SUV rollover accident, our lawyers that handle car accident cases and represent clients throughout the State of Michigan, including Detroit, Flint, Lansing, Jackson, Grand Rapids, and Kalamazoo, can help.

Adverse Weather Conditions

When adverse road conditions are present, it is very important to exercise care and caution while driving. Conditions such as snow, ice, rain, and sleet can significantly increase the odds of someone becoming involved in a car accident.  Whether a driver is negligent in causing an accident when confronted with adverse weather conditions will depend on the specific facts of each case. However, if you or a loved one has been involved in a single-vehicle or multi-vehicle accident because of adverse weather conditions, you may be eligible to receive No-Fault benefits and sue the at-fault party in order to recover financial compensation for your pain and suffering. Our lawyers who handle car accident cases, can help you understand your legal rights and fight for you to obtain the compensation you deserve for your accident-related injuries.

Adverse Road Conditions

The conditions of a road's surface can also increase the likelihood of becoming involved in a car accident. When a single-vehicle or multi-vehicle accident occurs because of damaged pavement or other road problems, it may be possible to file suit against a private entity or a local government for damages. Federal and local governments have a responsibility to design safe roadways and to maintain them at a level that provides motorists with a safe driving environment. If a road is designed with poor drainage such that the road floods after it rains, this fact could result in liability on the part of a governmental agency. Moreover, large potholes, poor or missing signage, or general failure to properly maintain the roadway can all result in vehicle crashes and subject a governmental agency to liability for your injuries.

Vehicle Defects and Car Accidents

Problems related to defective equipment on a vehicle, such as tire failure, can lead to a car accident. Defective airbags can result in catastrophic injuries or even wrongful death. When a defect in a product's design or construction results in an accident that causes injuries, it may be possible to file a products liability claim against the responsible parties. If you believe your injuries were caused by an automotive defect in your vehicle's design or manufacture, contact our law office today. Our lawyers who handle car accident cases and  represent clients throughout the State of Michigan, including Detroit, Flint, Lansing, Jackson, Grand Rapids, and Kalamazoo, can review your case and help you determine if you are eligible to file a products liability claim.
