In Michigan, many injured individuals pursue Michigan No-Fault (PIP) Insurance Claims to recover essential medical expenses, wage loss, and attendant care benefits. In more serious cases, victims may also pursue liability claims against negligent drivers to obtain compensation for pain and suffering and other non-economic damages. When commercial vehicles are involved, liability claims against negligent trucking companies can hold the carrier accountable for unsafe practices, poor maintenance, or driver negligence, ensuring full recovery for serious injuries.

Motorcycle crashes in Michigan often lead to severe injuries because riders lack the protection of enclosed vehicles. Although traditional Michigan No-Fault coverage applies differently to motorcyclists, injured riders may still pursue recovery for medical expenses, wage loss, and pain and suffering when another driver’s negligence causes the crash. These cases can involve complex insurance issues, including the interaction between auto, motorcycle, and excess liability policies. JKH Law understands these challenges and fights to secure full compensation for injured riders and their families. Learn more here.

Bicyclists are vulnerable on Michigan roads, and crashes with motor vehicles can cause significant injuries. When a motor vehicle is involved, injured cyclists may pursue No-Fault (PIP) benefits for medical treatment and wage loss. They may also pursue liability claims against negligent drivers for pain and suffering and other non-economic damages. These cases often require careful investigation of right-of-way, visibility, speed, and roadway conditions, as well as insurance coordination for bike replacement and other losses. JKH Law builds the evidence and presses insurers for full and fair compensation. Learn more here.

Pedestrians struck by vehicles often suffer severe or life-altering injuries. Under Michigan’s No-Fault (PIP) system, injured pedestrians may recover medical expenses, lost wages, and attendant care even if they don’t own a vehicle. When a negligent driver is responsible, a liability claim may also be pursued for pain and suffering and other non-economic damages. These cases frequently turn on visibility, crosswalk usage, and driver attentiveness. JKH Law carefully investigates every factor to hold negligent drivers accountable and to maximize recovery for victims. Learn more here.

Construction injury claims involve accidents that occur on or near job sites, often due to unsafe working conditions, equipment failures, or negligence by contractors and subcontractors. These incidents can result in serious or even life-changing injuries. In Michigan, injured workers and bystanders may pursue claims beyond workers’ compensation, including liability claims against negligent contractors, property owners, or third parties. These claims can help recover damages for medical care, lost income, and pain and suffering, while holding those responsible for unsafe practices accountable. Learn more here.

Dog bite claims often involve holding the responsible party legally accountable for injuries caused by their animal. In Michigan, victims may recover damages through liability claims against negligent dog owners, often without needing to prove prior knowledge of aggression. These claims can cover medical expenses, scarring, lost wages, and pain and suffering. Strong evidence and prompt legal action are key to maximizing recovery in a dog bite case. Learn more here.

Wrongful death claims provide a legal path for families to seek justice and financial recovery after the tragic loss of a loved one. Under the Michigan Wrongful Death Act (MCL 600.2922), a personal representative may pursue damages against those responsible for the death, including compensation for funeral costs, medical bills, loss of financial support, and loss of the relationship itself. These claims often arise from serious incidents such as auto accidents or other catastrophic events. Learn more here.

Institutional sexual assault claims arise when abuse occurs within settings such as schools, universities, healthcare facilities, or other organizations that had a duty to protect individuals from harm. These cases center on the institution’s negligence—such as failing to supervise, investigate, or act on prior warnings. Victims may pursue civil claims for compensation, often alongside federal claims under statutes like Title IX or 42 U.S.C. § 1983, to hold institutions accountable for enabling or ignoring abuse.

Premises liability claims arise when someone is injured because a property owner or occupier failed to keep their premises reasonably safe. These cases can involve hazards such as unsafe walkways, poor lighting, inadequate security, or failure to remove snow and ice. In Michigan, property owners have a legal duty to protect lawful visitors from dangerous conditions they knew or should have known about. A successful premises liability claim can help injured individuals recover damages for medical expenses, lost wages, and pain and suffering caused by unsafe property conditions. Learn more here.

General negligence claims arise when an individual, business, or organization fails to use reasonable care, resulting in injury or harm to another person. These cases cover a wide range of incidents outside of specific categories like auto or premises liability, including unsafe conduct, careless supervision, or failure to follow safety standards. To succeed, a plaintiff must show that the defendant owed a duty of care, breached that duty, and caused damages as a result. Skilled representation ensures accountability and fair recovery.
