Falls In Elderly | Fall Injuries | Fatal Fall Statistics | Michigan Slip and Fall Lawyers

We recently added a Library Page to our website on the number of fatal fall injuries in Michigan and your legal rights after a Michigan fall injury. Falls are very common among individuals aged sixty-five and older and cause serious injuries and death among the victims. According to the Michigan Health and Hospital Association and the Michigan Department of Community Health, between 1990 and 2002 the death rate due to elderly falls nearly doubled from 17.9 to 32.5 per 100,000 population.

Victims of fall injuries do have legal rights and should pursue them immediately after the accident. An injured person may be entitled to monetary compensation for the injuries suffered. Call us now at (800) 606-1717 to speak with one of our experienced Michigan fall lawyers about your case.
