Michigan Personal Injury Law

When you are injured or a loved one is killed, it is difficult to ensure that your rights are respected and you receive fair compensation. Michigan’s No-Fault automobile insurance is complex and insurers are restricting coverage for individuals who have been paying high premiums for years. Accidents at work and on commercial property are difficult to pursue on your own. And cases of wrongful death require someone to advocate on behalf of your loved one.

Parsons Law Firm has decades of experience navigating the system. We believe that helping injured individuals is the only way to make insurance companies accountable.
