Brain Injuries from Car Accidents
According to the Center for Disease Control, auto accidents are the second-leading cause of traumatic brain injury in Michigan. Injured victims of Michigan auto accidents are entitled to a set of rights under the Michigan no-fault law. The allowable expense benefit, a portion of the rights Michigan residents are entitled to, is even more crucial to those with traumatic brain injuries from car accidents because it provides for long-term medical care. From direct medical care to comprehensive rehabilitation, this benefit provides a vast array of resources dedicated to helping you on your path to recovery.

Preventing Bicycle-RelatedBrain Injuries, One Helmet at a Time
In addition to protecting the legal rights of brain injury victims, our law office is also committed to preventing brain injury accidents, especially with children.
Each year, we partner with a number of state and local organizations to present Lids for Kids – a bike helmet giveaway and safety event. We have properly fitted and given away thousands of free helmets to Michigan children year-after-year. We believe that if we can prevent even just one brain injury – it’s well worth it.
