A client-focused personal injury firm dedicated to delivering results with compassion, integrity, and legal excellence.
Under Michigan law, you have the right to recover compensation through a personal lawsuit when you have suffered an injury. This requires you to build a case that proves someone else is legally liable for causing your injury, either intentionally or through negligence. Moreover, you must be aware of Michigan laws that will affect your case. Personal injuries can often be serious and at times, can even be fatal or result in permanent and lifelong disability. Whatever type of injury you may be facing, Metro Detroit, MI personal injury attorney Marc J. Shefman has the skills and experience to help his clients achieve a successful result in their case and can answer your questions about the law and your rights.
No matter what type of injury you’ve suffered, taking legal action early is essential. Promptly hiring an attorney ensures key evidence is preserved, medical records are documented, and witnesses are contacted before information is lost. The sooner you act, the stronger your position will be if you decide to pursue compensation through a personal injury lawsuit.
If you've been injured due to someone else’s negligence—such as in a car accident or slip and fall—you may be eligible for compensation. We offer free consultations to evaluate your situation.
Bring any documentation related to your injury: medical records, police reports, insurance info, photos, or witness contact details. Don’t worry—we’ll guide you through what’s most important.
No. We work on a contingency fee basis, meaning you don’t pay unless we win your case.
In most cases, Michigan law gives you three years from the date of the injury to file a lawsuit. However, disability claims and other factors can affect deadlines, so it’s best to speak with an attorney as soon as possible.
