Our Detroit bus accident lawyer recently settled a pedestrian accident case in the Washtenaw Circuit Court.  Our client, a University of Michigan employee, was crossing the street in downtown Ann Arbor.  While in the crosswalk, an Ann Arbor Transportation Authority Bus turned into the crosswalk and struck him, knocking him down and causing numerous injuries.  A lawsuit was filed and later settled at a mediation proceeding just prior to the scheduled jury trial.  Several videos taken by the bus cameras provided necessary evidence to prove liability against the bus driver.

In the year 2009 there were a total of 2,135 bus accidents in Wayne County. Detroit bus accidents accounted for 1,170 (54.8%) of those accidents. These bus accidents resulted in 13 fatalities (8 in Detroit), and another 573 people who suffered injuries, 230 of which were in Detroit. In addition, there were 13 pedestrians involved in Detroit bus accidents.

Our Michigan motorcycle accident lawyers recently filed a wrongful death lawsuit for a client in the Wayne County Circuit Court.  The case arises out of a Detroit motorcycle accident with a motor vehicle accident that occurred in the city of Detroit.  The client was the operator of a motorcycle, when a motor vehicle negligently took a left hand turn in front of him.  The motorcyclist struck the passenger side of the car causing fatal injuries.   

The biker suffered from multiple injuries that lead to his death. The motorcyclist left behind a daughter and his fiancé.

Our law firm is working hard to obtain a settlement for his family. It is believe that the automobile that was involved in the accident did not have any insurance as the policy number listed on the police report was not a valid policy number for the listed insurance company.  Unfortunately, the motorcyclist did NOT have uninsured or underinsured insurance coverage on his motorcycle and if it turns out that there was no coverage on the motor vehicle, then the family may collect nothing as a result of his death. 

Did you know that over 90% of Michigan bikers purchase the wrong motorcycle insurance?  This can result in no coverage for lost wages, medical expenses, and other important No-Fault insurance benefits.  It may also prevent a settlement against the negligent driver who causes the accident.  Our lawyers urge all Michigan bikers to read The Michigan Motorcycle Report. The information in this free report will help bikers avoid the biggest mistakes in buying motorcycle insurance and provide a checklist to the insurance coverage that all bikers in Michigan should purchase.  The report is free and the information is priceless.

A single car accident that took place on U.S. 131 near 120th Avenue in Allegan County involved three students from the Detroit area.  The accident took place on Thursday, May 19th around 7:30 p.m.  According to police, the vehicle veered off into the median of the highway, hitting a  guard wire, and causing the vehicle to rollover. Due to the rollover accident, one woman, Tierra Shaques Gainey, was killed and two other woman suffered injuries and were taken to the hospital.

I am very sorry about the accident. My condolensces go out the family of the deceased victim and I hope that the injured victims have a fast recovery without any permanent damages.
