A 33-year-old Port Huron man was involved in a St. Clair County Garbage Truck Accident on July 16th. According to police, the man, a Richfield Management employee, was allegedly run over by a garbage truck while he was working.

Police believe the truck was stopping and collecting trash on Mill Street in Algonac when the front wheel of the garbage truck ran over the Richfield Management employee. The man’s right leg and right arm were seriously injured. The man was airlifted to University of Michigan Medical Center. He is in stable condition. Police continue to investigate this accident.

I  am very sorry to hear about this tragic accident and wish the injured man the fullest and speediest recovery possible.  I hope that he comes out of this with no permanent harm.

Michigan truck accident victims have a number of legal rights.  As this accident happened while he was working and involved a motor vehicle,  the Richfield Management Employee may be eligible to receive Michigan Workers Compensation benefits and Michigan No-Fault Benefits. These benefits are similar in that they would cover  his medical expenses, lost wages, attendant care, replacement services, and other benefits related to injuries suffered in the accident. 

The Richfield Management employee should speak with an experienced Michigan Accident Lawyer to determine which  benefits he is eligible to receive. Accident victims should not speak with an insurance adjuster for the negligent parties before consulting with an attorney.
