Our Michigan lawyers advise pedestrains who have been hit by a vehicle and suffer injuries to speak to a pedestrian accident lawyer in Michigan immediately. Persons injured in a pedestrian accident often have claims for their personal injuries and can file No Fault Insurance claims for medical expenses, lost wages, and other benefits, even if they did not own a vehicle or have a No Fault Insurance policy. Many claims can be filed by our Michigan pedestrian lawyers, even in circumstances such as hit and run accidents involving pedestrians, such as this accident.

Catastrophic injuries are frequent outcomes of pedestrian-car accidents. Wrongful death is frequent in these accidents. Other common injuries include closed head and traumatic brain injuries, spinal cord injuries, including quadraplegia and paraplegia, broken bones and fractures, back injuries, neck injuries, and shoulder injuries. 

Additionally, to assist police authorities in identifying the driver that cause injuries our Michigan car accident lawyers are participating in the Hit and Run Program so that they can face the legal penalties imposed for their criminal actions. Our Michigan car accident attorneys choose to participate knowing this program will help bring justice to victims of hit and run accidents and their families.

The Hit and Run Reward Program allows a person who has witnessed a hit and run to report the accident and offender anonymously and in return be awarded a reward if there is an arrest or felony charge. To create such a program, our law firm has teamed up with We Tip to provide an effective, anonymous hit and run reporting system. If you witness a hit and run, call (800-644-8678). When calling the number you will be asked if you would like to receive a reward if there is an arrest and a felony conviction. Rewards of up to $1,000 can be given out.
