Brain Injury Verdict in Lenawee County

A traumatic brain injury victim in a Michigan car accident recieved justice today in a Lenawee County courtoom.  A  jury returned a verdict in a car accident case in favor of the accident vicitm for approximately $2,000,000.00.  This is a substantial verdict in for Lenawee County where jurors are considered conservative when awarding compensation to injury victims.  The accident victim suffered a closed head injury in the accident.

The negligent driver had insurance company with Farm Bureau Insurance Company.  Incredibly, the insurance adjuster offered only $100,000 before the trial to settle this serious injury case.  Well, the jury clearly saw through the smoke and mirror defense and the adjuster grossly underestimated the magnitude of the case, and the tremendous skill of the lawyer for the accident victim.  There will most likely be significant penalties awarded against the Defendant in this case and the insurance company will be probably be required to foot the bill, as it should.

Michigan Brain Injury Program Receives Grant

The Southeastern Michigan Traumatic Brain Injury System was awarded a grant for $1.7 million from the U.S. Department of Education’s National Institute of Disability and Rehabilitation Research.  The program is affiliated with the DMC Rehabilitation Institute of Michigan and offers care to people with brain injuries.

This grant is a great boost for traumatic brain injury and closed head injury patients in Michigan.  My personal injury law firm handles a significant number of brain injury cases, most of which arise from car accidents, motorcycle accidents, fall injuries, and other types of trauma.  Our clients who treat with the best clinics show substantial improvement and have the best prognosis, even if they do not achieve full recovery.  The DMC program already enjoys a great reputation and this grant will certainly help improve the quality of treatment and care provided at that facility.
