Auto Accident

If you’ve been hurt in a car crash, Michigan law may allow you to bring a lawsuit against the at-fault driver for pain and suffering, excess medical expenses, or lost wages not covered by insurance. But the legal path isn’t always simple. In most cases, you must first prove that your injury meets the state’s “serious impairment of body function” threshold. And because Michigan’s No-Fault system separates your own benefits from those you can sue for, knowing where your claim fits—and how to pursue it, can make a major difference in your recovery.

At Anchor Bay Law, attorney Shaun Kelley brings an advantage to your personal injury case. Before helping injured clients, Shaun spent several years handling hundreds of auto accident lawsuits from the insurance-defense side. He knows how insurers defend these cases, what they’re looking for, and how to fight back. Whether your claim involves soft tissue injuries or life-altering trauma, Shaun uses his knowledge of both sides to help you navigate your options and pursue the full compensation the law allows.

Slip and Fall

If you were hurt because of a dangerous condition on someone else’s property, a wet floor, uneven sidewalk, broken stair, or snow-covered lot, you may have a claim under Michigan’s premises liability law. But these cases are complex. You must show not only that the hazard caused your injury, but also that the property owner knew or should have known it was there and failed to fix it or warn you.

Anchor Bay Law helps injured clients understand their rights and options after a fall or other injury on someone else’s property. Every case starts with a careful review of what happened, when, and where, so we can advise you clearly on whether the law supports a claim.

Dog Bites

In Michigan, if you’ve been bitten by a dog while lawfully on public or private property, the law may hold the dog’s owner responsible—regardless of whether the dog had ever bitten anyone before. These cases usually turn on whether the dog was provoked, where the bite occurred, and who was legally responsible for the animal at the time.

Anchor Bay Law helps victims of dog attacks pursue justice through Michigan’s dog bite statute and other legal remedies. If you or your child has suffered an injury, we’re here to guide you through your options and help you move forward.

FAQs for Personal Injury in New Baltimore and Macomb County

What should I do right after a car crash or injury?

Call 911 if needed, get medical care, and document the scene with photos and names of witnesses. For local crashes, request the police report number from the responding agency. Contact a personal injury attorney before speaking to insurers.

Do I have deadlines to file a claim in Michigan?

Yes. Michigan law sets strict timelines for injury claims and insurance benefits. Some deadlines arrive quickly, especially for insurance notice and benefits, while others allow more time for a lawsuit. Speak with an attorney promptly so your rights are preserved.

How are medical bills handled after a Michigan auto accident?

Michigan’s no fault system provides certain personal injury protection benefits. Coverage details depend on the policy in place at the time of the crash. We help you apply for benefits, coordinate with health providers, and pursue additional compensation when available.

What if I slipped and fell on someone else’s property?

Report the incident to the property owner or manager, photograph the hazard, and seek medical care. Liability depends on whether the owner failed to take reasonable steps to fix or warn about a dangerous condition. We investigate video, maintenance records, and witness statements.

How do Michigan dog bite claims work?

Michigan law holds dog owners responsible for bites in many situations, subject to defenses such as provocation or trespass. We document injuries, identify the owner’s insurance, and pursue compensation for medical care, scarring, and lost income.

Will my case settle or go to court in Macomb County?

Most cases settle after evidence is exchanged. If needed, lawsuits are filed and heard in the appropriate court, which for larger claims is typically the Macomb County Circuit Court in Mount Clemens. We prepare every case as if it may go to trial to strengthen negotiations.

How do attorneys get paid in personal injury matters?

We typically use a contingency fee, meaning you pay legal fees only if we recover compensation for you. We discuss the fee agreement, costs, and next steps at your consultation so there are no surprises.
