When a product is defectively designed, negligently manufactured, or sold without adequate warnings, the people it injures deserve compensation. Defective auto parts, dangerous machinery, faulty medical devices, unsafe children's products, and contaminated goods can cause severe injury and death. Michigan product liability law allows injured consumers to pursue manufacturers, distributors, and sellers. These cases often require engineering and medical experts to prove the defect and link it to the injury.
What You Should Know
No fee unless you win
Network attorneys work on contingency — you pay nothing unless they recover for you.
Three-year deadline
Most Michigan personal injury claims must be filed within three years under MCL 600.5805.
Comparative fault
Your recovery is reduced by your share of fault, and over 50% fault bars noneconomic damages.
Act quickly
Evidence fades and deadlines are strict — early action protects your claim.
