We know Northern Michigan — its roads, its courts, and the challenges that come with recovering from a serious injury in a community built around tourism, agriculture, and four distinct seasons. From winter crashes on US-31 and M-72 to summer accidents during Traverse City's busy tourist months, we understand exactly what local juries, judges, and insurance adjusters expect to see in a well-built case.
Every client works directly with a Traverse City personal injury attorney — not a call center, not a case manager passed between offices. You pay nothing upfront, and nothing at all unless we win your case.

Personal Injury FAQ
Answers to the questions Traverse City clients ask us most.
How much does a personal injury lawyer cost in Traverse City?
Nothing upfront. We work on a contingency fee basis, meaning our fee is a percentage of what we recover for you — and if we don't win your case, you owe us nothing. Your initial consultation is always free.
How long do I have to file a personal injury claim in Michigan?
Michigan's statute of limitations for most personal injury claims is three years from the date of the injury. Some claims — especially those against government entities — have much shorter notice deadlines, sometimes as little as 60 days, so it's important to speak with an attorney as soon as possible.
What should I do after a car accident in Traverse City?
Seek medical attention right away, even if injuries seem minor. Call the police to file a report, photograph the scene and vehicle damage, exchange information with the other driver, and avoid giving a recorded statement to any insurance adjuster before speaking with an attorney.
Is Michigan a strict liability state for dog bites?
Yes. Under Michigan's dog bite statute (MCL 287.351), a dog owner is liable if their dog bites someone who is on public property, or lawfully on private property, regardless of whether the dog has ever bitten anyone before. There's no "one bite" exception in Michigan.
What is Michigan's comparative fault rule?
Michigan follows a modified comparative fault rule. You can still recover compensation even if you were partially at fault for an accident, as long as you were not more than 50% at fault — though your compensation will be reduced by your percentage of fault.
Do I need a lawyer for a minor slip and fall?
Even a seemingly minor slip and fall can lead to injuries — like concussions or soft tissue damage — that don't show up until days later. A quick, free consultation can help you understand whether you have a claim worth pursuing before evidence disappears or a deadline passes.
