Description: Grand Rapids, Michigan personal injury lawyer represented the Plaintiff who sued on a wrongful death auto negligence theory.
In Michigan, negligence laws use a structure called “comparative negligence.” Essentially, when you've been injured and you file a personal injury claim seeking damages, you must prove the party that injured you was at least partially at fault for your accident.
The Michigan wrongful death statute gives authority to family members of the loved one to file a lawsuit for compensation for accidental deaths, fatal accidents, or intentional acts. Lawsuits can be brought by a spouse, parent, sibling, child, grandparent, or grandchild.
