Motor vehicle injury and workers comp injury claims are my primary areas of practice. I do, additionally, have a proven record of success in a variety of other personal injury claims – including those mentioned below.
Every type of personal injury claim is different, the insurances are different, the applicable laws are different, and the monetary compensation potential is different. Take the following examples, for instance:
• If you’re injured in accident with an 18 wheeler while driving your car, the insurance provided by the trucking company is very different than the insurance coverage on your passenger vehicle. Both types of insurances may be applicable to your injury claim, but for different reasons.
• Likewise, if you’re on a motorcycle and a passenger vehicle fails to yield the right of way causing an accident in which you’re injured, your motorcycle insurance policy and that of the at-fault passenger vehicle provide very different coverages and protections – both of which may be applicable to your injury claim.
• Similarly, if you’re injured in a car accident while doing your job, your employers’ workers comp insurance as well as your (or your employer’s) auto injury insurance come into play. Additionally, you may also have an injury claim against the at-fault driver’s insurance company.
• Even though all three types of accidents involve passenger vehicles, it takes an experienced personal injury lawyer with a deep understanding of auto, big rig, motorcycle, and workers comp insurances to know which unique coverages apply to which parts of your claim – so you get the maximum amount of compensation you’re due under Michigan injury law.
That’s why it pays to have an experienced personal injury attorney who not only has deep knowledge of Michigan injury law, but also has a proven record of success with a wide variety of personal injury claims and insurance coverages as well.
It’s definitely worth a free phone call to me if you have any of the following types of injury claims, because I have a proven record of success – both in and outside of court – with every one of them:

Did you know over 90% of motorcycle accidents are caused by other vehicles failing to yield the right of way to motorcyclists?
Not only do motorcycle riders pay more for much different coverages due to the inherent dangers of sharing the road with much bigger vehicles, but they also pay more in terms of the extent of the injuries they sustain in a crash.
That’s why you need an experienced motorcycle injury attorney who knows how to prove your claim, in or outside the courtroom. One who knows how to investigate your crash, find all the areas of compensation the at-fault driver’s insurance provides, identify any and all third party claims, and get you every cent you deserve for the injuries you sustained.
Does it matter if your personal injury lawyer also rides? Not as much as it matters that he or she has a successful track record of delivering maximum results for other riders, while treating every rider with integrity and respect – on the road and off.
Semi truck accidents are among the most traumatic, both physically and mentally. So there’s little wonder that big rigs carry far greater insurance coverages than other vehicles.
It’s also why semi truck insurance providers & investigators work extra hard to disprove any claim against them.
An experienced personal injury lawyer who’s taken big rig insurance companies down time and time again gives you greater strength, comfort, security, and financial compensation in a time when you need it most.
What’s more, semi truck claims in particular benefit from the reputation of a successful trial attorney who’s tenacious against trucking companies & their insurance providers in getting the results his or her seriously injured clients need.
Whether you cycle for fitness, recreational and social reasons, competitively, or as a clean transportation alternative, no doubt you’ll end up cycling on a Michigan road at some point.
While (thankfully!) bike lanes have increased locally and bike laws have improved, there’s always a risk you won’t be seen by the driver of a vehicle that’s many times bigger, heavier, and faster than you and your bike.
Who in west Michigan can forget the tragic June day back in 2016 when a local truck driver took aim at a group of Kalamazoo cyclists known as The Chain Gang, running them off the road, killing 5 and seriously injuring 4?
You’re careful on your bike. It’s other drivers with whom you have to share the road who aren’t!
That’s why you need an experienced personal injury lawyer who knows exactly where to look to get you the maximum compensation you’re due if you’re ever injured while cycling.
I’m looking out for you – in the courtroom, at the negotiating table, AND on the road!
Please – stay safe out there!
All kinds of injury claims fall under pedestrian accidents – from slips and falls on wet floors or icy parking lots to getting stuck in automated doors, from staircase & escalator injuries to tripping on poorly maintained sidewalks.
Some of these incidents may seem minor at the time, but the injuries caused can be long-term and difficult to recover from – physically, emotionally, and financially.
Due to the variety of mishaps that can happen when you’re out and about, you need a personal injury attorney who’s experienced with all types of pedestrian claims, and the associated third party insurances that may come into play in your particular case.
People who are injured in pedestrian accidents have a tendency not to act in their best interests legally because they blame their own clumsiness or distractions for not noticing they were in harm’s way.
Don’t let embarrassment stop you from calling a personal injury attorney to find out if you have a right to financial compensation for your injury!
Only a personal injury attorney will be able to advise you about your legal claims and whether or not they’re within the statutes of limitations for filing a financial recovery claim.
Medical malpractice are among the most devastating of injury claims, largely because of the amount of trust you placed in your medical team to take care of you or your loved one.
That’s why you need a personal injury attorney who not only knows exactly where in malpractice insurances to look for the compensation you’re entitled to, but also one who will not violate the bond of trust you put in him or her.
You’ve already been hurt, shocked, betrayed, and left helpless by your medical team’s best intentions. Find a personal injury attorney who’s experienced in medical malpractice claims – who truly understands and cares about the physical and emotional anguish you and your loved ones are going through – and who will defend your rights every single step of the way without fail.
You know it can happen completely out of the blue, for any reason or no reason at all: you or a loved one is hit by a driver under the influence.
While according to the Michigan State Police’s 202o report, intoxicated drivers account for about 5% of Michigan road accidents causing injuries, damage tends to be more severe because not only is the vehicle out of control, but so is the driver.
What’s more, it’s not uncommon for drivers under the influence to have gotten in trouble for intoxicated driving before, either … and are perhaps driving on a suspended or revoked license, with or without insurance!
That’s why you need a personal injury attorney who’s experienced with car accident injury claims, uninsured and under-insured motor claims, catastrophic claims, and rigorous court battles … AND who knows exactly where to look to get maximum compensation for the injuries caused by the negligence of drivers under the influence.
What is it about being out on the water that turns some people extra reckless?
From speed boats to pontoons, jet skis to row boats, all it takes is one reckless person piloting a watercraft on a body of water to cause extreme injuries to someone else.
If that someone is you or someone you love, your best chance for maximum compensation is best put in the hands of a personal injury attorney who has a successful track record with watercraft injury claims.
The types of insurance coverages that apply often involve not only property damage insurance on the watercraft (which are frequently un- or under-insured for personal liability), but also third party insurances like homeowners’ policies that may also apply.
Your interests will be best served by an experienced personal injury lawyer who knows exactly how to deal with a variety of insurances, find the applicable policies in your claim, and maximize your compensation for your or a loved one’s injuries.
Did you know that in terms of injuries, there’s not a lot of difference between snowmobiles, 4WD ATVs, motorized dirt bikes, and dune buggies?
There are often big differences in insurance coverages, though … especially when injuries are involved.
Identifying the at-fault party is often the most challenging part of these cases, because the legally-responsible party is sometimes not even at the scene.
Meanwhile, on the scene, speed and recklessness of one or more (usually underage teenager or child) drivers can cause confusion over who is actually legally responsible.
That’s where your interests are best served by a personal injury attorney with a successful track record of financial recovery for victims of off-road accidents.
Off-road injuries can be substantial! So can the resulting financial compensation when you work with an experienced injury attorney who knows where to look for it.
Did you know American homeowners paid out over $882 million in dog bite claims in 2021 according to watchdog group dogbites.org?
It’s never pleasant to think about a domestic animal causing major injuries … but it does happen! In fact, Michigan is ranked in the top 10 states for serious dog bite injuries, and 5th in the nation for attacking postal carriers.
No wonder Michigan has a strict liability law which holds animal owners responsible and liable for the injuries caused by their dog or other domestic animals, except in cases where it can be proven that the animal was provoked by the injured party.
The types of injuries caused by serious animal attacks often include multiple surgeries due to facial lacerations; eye injuries (including loss of sight): tearing injuries to soft tissue of the face, hands, and feet; joint damage and loss or amputation of digits; broken bones; and infections from the attacking animal’s mouth and claws. All can have devastating and permanent consequences for animal attack victims.
Your interests are best served by a personal injury attorney who has a successful track record with serious animal attack claims, and understands not only the physical damage and process of recovery, but also the emotional devastation being seriously injured by an attacking animal has on both victims and their loved ones.
Few things are as heartbreaking or as difficult to deal with as a loved one taken from us unexpectedly – especially when your loss is the result of someone else’s negligence. In addition to the shock and grief, there’s the added pain, blame, anger, and questioning …
Due to the nature of wrongful death claims, there’s often other claims that attach, depending on the circumstances surrounding the tragic loss. So it’s important to deal with a personal injury attorney who has significant successful experience in many types of injury claims, who knows and understands where to look for additional compensations in wrongful death cases, and who is willing to bring the full weight of the law to bear in wrongful death and all related claims – either in or outside the courtroom.

It’s also why semi truck insurance providers & investigators work extra hard to disprove any claim against them.
An experienced personal injury lawyer who’s taken big rig insurance companies down time and time again gives you greater strength, comfort, security, and financial compensation in a time when you need it most.
What’s more, semi truck claims in particular benefit from the reputation of a successful trial attorney who’s tenacious against trucking companies & their insurance providers in getting the results his or her seriously injured clients need.
Did you know that in terms of injuries, there’s not a lot of difference between snowmobiles, 4WD ATVs, motorized dirt bikes, and dune buggies?
There are often big differences in insurance coverages, though … especially when injuries are involved.
Identifying the at-fault party is often the most challenging part of these cases, because the legally-responsible party is sometimes not even at the scene.
Meanwhile, on the scene, speed and recklessness of one or more (usually underage teenager or child) drivers can cause confusion over who is actually legally responsible.
That’s where your interests are best served by a personal injury attorney with a successful track record of financial recovery for victims of off-road accidents.
Off-road injuries can be substantial! So can the resulting financial compensation when you work with an experienced injury attorney who knows where to look for it.
All kinds of injury claims fall under pedestrian accidents – from slips and falls on wet floors or icy parking lots to getting stuck in automated doors, from staircase & escalator injuries to tripping on poorly maintained sidewalks.
Some of these incidents may seem minor at the time, but the injuries caused can be long-term and difficult to recover from – physically, emotionally, and financially.
Due to the variety of mishaps that can happen when you’re out and about, you need a personal injury attorney who’s experienced with all types of pedestrian claims, and the associated third party insurances that may come into play in your particular case.
People who are injured in pedestrian accidents have a tendency not to act in their best interests legally because they blame their own clumsiness or distractions for not noticing they were in harm’s way.
Don’t let embarrassment stop you from calling a personal injury attorney to find out if you have a right to financial compensation for your injury!
Only a personal injury attorney will be able to advise you about your legal claims and whether or not they’re within the statutes of limitations for filing a financial recovery claim.
Did you know American homeowners paid out over $882 million in dog bite claims in 2021 according to watchdog group dogbites.org?
It’s never pleasant to think about a domestic animal causing major injuries … but it does happen! In fact, Michigan is ranked in the top 10 states for serious dog bite injuries, and 5th in the nation for attacking postal carriers.
No wonder Michigan has a strict liability law which holds animal owners responsible and liable for the injuries caused by their dog or other domestic animals, except in cases where it can be shown that the injured person provoked the attack.
The types of injuries caused by serious animal attacks often include multiple surgeries due to facial lacerations; eye injuries (including loss of sight): tearing injuries to soft tissue of the face, hands, and feet; joint damage and loss or amputation of digits; broken bones; and infections from the attacking animal’s mouth and claws. All can have devastating and permanent consequences for animal attack victims.
Your interests are best served by a personal injury attorney who has a successful track record with serious animal attack claims, and understands not only the physical damage and process of recovery, but also the emotional devastation being seriously injured by an attacking animal has on both victims and their loved ones.
You know it can happen completely out of the blue, for any reason or no reason at all: you or a loved one is hit by a driver under the influence.
While according to the Michigan State Police’s 2020 report, intoxicated drivers account for about 5% of Michigan road accidents causing injuries, damage tends to be more severe because not only is the vehicle out of control, but so is the driver.
What’s more, it’s not uncommon for drivers under the influence to have gotten in trouble for intoxicated driving before, either … and are perhaps driving on a suspended or revoked license, with or without insurance!
That’s why you need a personal injury attorney who’s experienced with car accident injury claims, uninsured and under-insured motor claims, catastrophic claims, and rigorous court battles … AND who knows exactly where to look to get maximum compensation for the injuries caused by the negligence of drivers under the influence.
What is it about being out on the water that turns some people extra reckless?
From speed boats to pontoons, jet skis to row boats, all it takes is one reckless person piloting a watercraft on a body of water to cause extreme injuries to someone else.
If that someone is you or someone you love, your best chance for maximum compensation is best put in the hands of a personal injury attorney who has a successful track record with watercraft injury claims.
The types of insurance coverages that apply often involve not only property damage insurance on the watercraft (which are frequently un- or under-insured for personal liability), but also third party insurances like homeowners’ policies that may also apply.
Your interests will be best served by an experienced personal injury lawyer who knows exactly how to deal with a variety of insurances, find the applicable policies in your claim, and maximize your compensation for your or a loved one’s injuries.
Whether you cycle for fitness, recreational and social reasons, competitively, or as a clean transportation alternative, no doubt you’ll end up cycling on a Michigan road at some point.
While (thankfully!) bike lanes have increased locally and bike laws have improved, there’s always a risk you won’t be seen by the driver of a vehicle that’s many times bigger, heavier, and faster than you and your bike.
Who in west Michigan can forget the tragic June day back in 2016 when a local truck driver took aim at a group of Kalamazoo cyclists known as The Chain Gang, running them off the road, killing 5 and seriously injuring 4?
You’re careful on your bike. It’s other drivers with whom you have to share the road who aren’t!
That’s why you need an experienced personal injury lawyer who knows exactly where to look to get you the maximum compensation you’re due if you’re ever injured while cycling.
I’m looking out for you – in the courtroom, at the negotiating table, AND on the road!
Please – stay safe out there!
Medical malpractice are among the most devastating of injury claims, largely because of the amount of trust you placed in your medical team to take care of you or your loved one.
That’s why you need a personal injury attorney who not only knows exactly where in malpractice insurances to look for the compensation you’re entitled to, but also one who will not violate the bond of trust you put in him or her.
You’ve already been hurt, shocked, betrayed, and left helpless by your medical team’s best intentions. Find a personal injury attorney who’s experienced in medical malpractice claims – who truly understands and cares about the physical and emotional anguish you and your loved ones are going through – and who will defend your rights every single step of the way without fail.
Few things are as heartbreaking or as difficult to deal with as a loved one taken from us unexpectedly – especially when your loss is the result of someone else’s negligence. In addition to the shock and grief, there’s the added pain, blame, anger, and questioning …
Due to the nature of wrongful death claims, there’s often other claims that attach, depending on the circumstances surrounding the tragic loss. So it’s important to deal with a personal injury attorney who has significant successful experience in many types of injury claims, who knows and understands where to look for additional compensations in wrongful death cases, and who is willing to bring the full weight of the law to bear in wrongful death and all related claims – either in or outside the courtroom.
A good personal injury attorney will understand that you or a loved one getting seriously injured is traumatic, painful, difficult, and something you’ve (hopefully!) never experienced before. A caring and compassionate personal injury lawyer will never make you feel foolish.
There’s no way an experienced personal injury attorney would expect you to have answers. He or she should be an expert in personal injury law, and as such, should know enough not expect you to be. A caring personal injury attorney will ask questions and chase down all the relevant information on your behalf – not expect you to show up with all the answers yourself. So don’t worry!
It’s more common than you may think that seemingly minor injuries end up turning into major ones. No one, not even doctors, can always predict whether an injury or surgery is going to have lasting repercussions, require additional treatment, or cause permanent or lifelong problems.
Since you only have 1 to 3 years to file an injury claim (depending on the type of injury and insurances involved), it’s never a good idea to wait until an injury gets worse to talk with an experienced personal injury lawyer.
It’s in your best interest to call as soon your immediate medical needs are taken care of.
If your injury doesn’t get worse, you and your personal injury lawyer can both celebrate your good health!
If your injury DOES get worse, you’ll have a legal expert involved right from the start, and ready to take action on your behalf the moment complications arise.
Do you have a good injury claim or not? Talking with an experienced personal injury lawyer is the only way to know for sure. An honest and straightforward injury attorney will let you know up front if your case has legal standing or not. Good injury lawyers don’t mind talking with you even if you don’t have a case, and will give you solid advice on what next steps you need to take, even if it’s not as one of their personal injury clients.
Personal injury lawyers work on a contingency basis, meaning you don’t pay attorney fees until and unless there’s a financial recovery on your behalf.
When you think about it, it’s the only fair way to make sure everyone who is injured – facing entirely new expenses and living on reduced or absent income – has equal access to qualified legal help and to Michigan courtrooms if needed.
Otherwise, only very wealthy people would be able to afford quality legal help in cases of serious personal injuries.
If you’ve never dealt with a personal injury lawyer before, it’s all but impossible to know who you can trust. Friends and family may help, but ultimately, it’s you who’s going to be on that phone call. The feeling and advice you get during that call – and how you are treated – is a good indication of what your relationship with that attorney will be like. The only way you’ll really know is to make that phone call, listen to your gut, and schedule a face to face meeting if your phone conversation leaves you with a good, trustworthy feeling.
Many personal injury victims and their loved ones have tried to make honest, straight-forward injury claims and were treated less than fairly by their insurance provider. It’s not personal; insurance companies want to keep more profit and pay less out in injury claims. The problem is, it FEELS personal!
That’s exactly why you need a personal injury attorney who will stand up to insurance companies on your behalf, put the law on YOUR side, and make sure every claim you have gets HEARD, RESPECTED, and COMPENSATED for under Michigan injury law.
Word to the wise: if you have to fight to get your personal injury attorney’s attention and respect, it’s time to switch attorneys!
It’s completely natural to want some degree of certainty, especially when you or a loved one are seriously injured. Unfortunately, most personal injury claims don’t work that way.
Injury claims are more like a game of chess: the insurance company makes an offer, your injury attorney makes a counter offer, over and over with every separate claim you have. It would be nice to know how & when it’s going to end! But it’s critical that you choose a personal injury attorney who’s patient with YOU and IMPATIENT with insurance adjusters! The squeaky wheel gets the grease … AND the results!
A respectful personal injury attorney will never force you to do something you’re not comfortable doing. He or she should explain what the potential gains are by trying your case in front of a jury, and what the best outcomes are likely to be if you don’t file a lawsuit.
Your personal injury lawyer should also explain that filing a lawsuit doesn’t necessarily mean your case will end up in court … and should be willing to go to court on your behalf if need be.
Ultimately, your personal injury attorney should respect your decision and be personally committed to getting you maximum compensation given your preferences.
Don’t forget: one reason you have a personal injury attorney is to have someone to do your fighting FOR you … so if your injury attorney suggests that it’s time to file a lawsuit, please give that suggestion your serious consideration!
I’ve personally generated over $200 million in results for my clients, including several million dollar and multi-million dollar verdicts and settlements.
We’ll have an honest and straightforward conversation that is completely confidential. I do not share any details of our call with anyone, because it’s important to me that you feel safe to tell me everything you feel is relevant without fear of repercussions.
I’ll listen, ask some questions to get an idea of what has or hasn’t already been done, and give you my professional legal advice about what your next steps need to be.
Sometimes I’ll give you advice you can act on without further assistance from me, and invite you to keep in touch.
Other times, I may invite you to a face to face meeting to get further information and clarification, especially if you are calling on behalf of a friend or loved one.
Either way, my highest priority is to treat you with dignity and respect, so you should not hesitate to call with whatever questions or concerns you may have regarding your injury, or whether or not you have a claim.
If you’re in a hurry or have some initial questions about the strength of your claim, calling me is usually fastest (269-375-6224). Once we chat, we’ll both have a better idea of what the next steps should be, and who needs to takes them.
If you’re not feeling a sense of urgency, feel free to email me at gsteeg@steegglistalaw.com. It’s helpful if you include your phone number in case I have some quick questions.
Either way, you can expect to hear back from me within 24 hours during the regular business week.
Video conferencing can be arranged once we’ve spoken on the phone if circumstances warrant it and it’s the most convenient next step for all involved.
Typically, my clients and I meet face to face before video conferencing is offered because it’s personally important to me that we establish a relationship of trust, and the best and fastest way to do that is in a face to face meeting.
That’s exactly why you should call me!
You aren’t familiar with personal injury law, and I have over 30 years experience practicing it …
Save yourself some time, trouble, worry and fear and let me give you my honest & straightforward legal opinion on what your next steps need to be!
No, you can leave your wallet at home! There are never any fees for my personal injury legal services until and unless there is a financial recovery on your behalf.
Many people do try to handle their insurance injury claims on their own because they assume the insurance provider will play fair, and because they don’t think they can afford professional legal services.
First, insurance providers rarely play fair! They want to minimize the amount they pay out in claims to keep more as profits, and they aren’t legally required to tell you all the potential claims you may have as a result of your injury. They are only going to respond to what you tell them.
Second, the contingency payment system means you don’t pay until money is recovered on your behalf, which gives you (and everyone else!) access to professional legal services regardless of income or other socio-economic factors.
So if we agree to work together, I just get to work on your behalf!
If there is anything in specific I need you to bring, I’ll let you know in advance.
Don’t worry, it is not a pass/fail test! I have been doing this long enough to know how hard it can be to get and keep track of various documents on your own …
That’s one of the advantages of working with me: I track down and organize all the documents related to your claim, so you don’t need to worry about that and can spend your time focusing on getting better!
