Medical Malpractice Claims
Medical malpractice is a licensed medical professional’s failure to meet the standard of care of a reasonably prudent professional of similar training under similar circumstances. The medical professional is liable to a patient for damages when the professional’s malpractice causes the patient to suffer injury or loss.
Due to the additional procedural requirements and the complexity of most medical malpractice , hiring a skilled Michigan lawsuit attorney is a crucial first-step. Additionally, it is important to contact a Michigan lawsuit attorney as soon as possible following the medical malpractice to allow time for the case to be adequately researched and developed in time to file it. This is because Michigan medical malpractice injury lawsuits have a shortened deadline within which to file a lawsuit (two years) and a substantial amount of work is required prior to filing, including finding and retaining expert witnesses and preparing documents required specifically for medical malpractice lawsuit filings.

I was extremely frustrated and at a loss with what else I could do to help myself and felt like I had been fed to the wolves. Ross took my case immediately, he was very professional and made everything as easy as pie. From filling paperwork, getting help with my doctor's, working with my busy schedule around the pandemic to making my previously horrible experience into something very pleasant....

In Michigan, auto accident victims are entitled to two types of damages: no-fault benefits (Personal Injury Protection or PIP benefits), covering economic damages regardless of fault and applicable to a wide range of motor vehicle-related accidents, and pain and suffering damages (non-economic damages), which are recoverable from the at-fault driver’s insurance or the victim’s own insurer in case of uninsured or underinsured motorists, provided the victim suffers from death, serious impairment, or permanent disfigurement. No-fault benefits include work loss reimbursement, medical treatment, and, in case of death, survivor’s loss benefits, while eligibility for pain and suffering damages requires demonstrating significant injury or disfigurement. The MichiganLawsuit.com team is dedicated to representing auto accident victims assertively, with contact details provided for potential clients to reach out for legal assistance.
Landlords or property owners are liable for injuries caused by hazards on their property if they fail to fulfill their legal duties to the injured person, such as failing to address dangerous conditions like poor stairway construction or building code violations, with liability depending on whether they were aware of the hazard. The level of duty owed varies based on the injured person’s status on the property: invitees, who are there for economic benefit to the owner and are owed the highest duty, including property inspection and hazard repair or warning; licensees, who have permission to be on the property without economic benefit to the owner and are only warned of known hidden dangers; and trespassers, who are owed the least duty, primarily to not be intentionally or recklessly harmed.
Negligence in personal injury lawsuits is defined as the failure to use the care a reasonably careful person would, covering a vast array of accidents like dropping an object on someone's foot or hitting someone with a golf club by accident. These incidents are often covered by the negligent party's homeowner's insurance, allowing for potential significant recoveries, and may also involve the employer's insurance if the act occurred within the scope of employment. Strengthening a negligence lawsuit involves promptly taking photos, collecting witness information, and contacting legal assistance, such as MichiganLawsuit.com.
Michigan dog bite law holds dog owners liable for bites occurring on public or lawfully accessed private property, without provocation, regardless of the dog's previous behavior or the owner's knowledge of such. Defenses in these lawsuits typically hinge on proving the victim provoked the dog or was trespassing, with provocation being determined by the jury based on specific case circumstances, and lawful presence challenging trespasser claims through evidence of implied consent to property access. Success in dog bite lawsuits in Michigan significantly relies on experienced legal representation to navigate defenses and maximize potential settlements or verdicts.
Michigan product defect lawsuits necessitate proving a product's defect caused an injury, with potential theories including negligent design, manufacture, failure to warn, breach of warranty, or misrepresentation/fraud. For negligent design, it must be shown that a product's design posed an unreasonable risk of injury that was foreseeable, with a safer, practical alternative design available but not used. Negligent manufacture claims focus on deviations from the product's design creating danger, while failure to warn involves not informing about a product's risks; both breach of warranty and misrepresentation claims revolve around false assurances about a product leading to harm.
Medical malpractice occurs when a healthcare professional fails to provide care at the standard expected of a reasonably prudent counterpart in similar conditions, making them liable for any resulting harm to the patient. Given the procedural complexities and the need for thorough preparation, including securing expert witnesses and compiling necessary documentation, enlisting a competent Michigan attorney promptly is essential. Michigan law imposes a two-year filing deadline for medical malpractice lawsuits, underscoring the importance of early legal consultation to ensure timely and adequately prepared case submission.
The MichiganLawsuit.com office specializes in Social Security claims, handling both Disability (for those with significant work histories now unable to work) and Insurance (for those without substantial income/assets), with eligibility for both requiring proof of disability as defined by an inability to engage in substantial gainful activity due to physical or mental impairments. The Social Security Administration conducts a Residual Functional Capacity (RFC) assessment to determine eligibility, utilizing factors like age and work history, though decisions can be appealed with the help of attorneys if initially denied. Appeals may progress from administrative judges to the Federal Court, where case law, rather than standard guidelines, influences the outcome, highlighting the importance of experienced legal representation in securing benefits.

An attorney may be liable for monetary damages to a client if their negligence results in the client's loss, such as losing a case or diminished case value, with legal malpractice being the actionable path for clients. In legal malpractice actions within Michigan, the plaintiff must demonstrate the existence of an attorney-client relationship, prove the attorney's negligence, and link the attorney's actions directly to the damages incurred. Michigan law defines legal malpractice as a failure to perform with the competence expected of a lawyer under similar circumstances, and an attorney-client relationship can be established without formal documentation, continuing until officially terminated.
