Michigan Asbestos Exposure Claims
As a top mesothelioma law firm, Sokolove Law can help asbestos exposure victims find out how they were exposed and pursue compensation from the companies that hid the risks.

Medical Malpractice & Misdiagnosis in MI
If a health care provider makes a mistake that harms a patient, it may be considered medical malpractice. Each year, around 750,000 Americans die or are permanently disabled due to medical errors, according to Johns Hopkins.
Malpractice cases commonly involve failing to diagnose patients quickly and accurately, which can give conditions time to worsen and delay treatments.
Results we’ve secured for patients and their families include:
$3.5 Million to a patient who received an incorrect diagnosis
$2 Million for the family of a girl who passed away due to medical malpractice
$2 Million to a woman whose doctors failed to diagnose her ovarian cancer
$3.1 Million to a patient who was misdiagnosed
Our firm has also secured compensation for victims of surgical malpractice, which can include incorrect operations and injuries suffered during a procedure.
At Sokolove Law, our Michigan malpractice lawyers can help you hold negligent health care workers accountable and seek compensation on your behalf.
Birth Injuries in Michigan
When a medical professional’s error injures a child before, during, or shortly after birth, families may be able to file a birth injury lawsuit for compensation.
The average payout from a birth injury claim is around $1 Million, depending on your child’s condition. This money can help pay for therapies, home modifications, assistive devices, and more.
We have registered nurses on staff who can listen to your experience and help you determine if a medical mistake may have caused your child’s condition.

Michigan Disability Insurance Denials
Many insurance providers have a history of wrongfully denying claims, leaving workers without the support they need during a difficult time.
Even if a medical condition qualifies for compensation under your policy, your insurer may still deny the claim — but we’ve helped many families fight back and get the benefits they're owed.
Compensation we’ve recovered for Michigan clients with denied disability claims includes:
$325,000 for an East Lansing client whose Unum claim for depression was denied
$1.15 Million for a woman with a denied disability claim
$77,000 for a denied Cigna claim in Saint Clair Shores
$450,000 for a client who was denied disability benefits
If your long-term disability (LTD) claim was wrongfully denied, we may be able to help you file an appeal or take legal action against your insurance company.
At Sokolove Law, our LTD lawyers in Michigan have the experience and resources needed to get you the benefits you deserve.
Abuse & Neglect in Michigan Nursing Homes
Tragically, cases of nursing home abuse and neglect are on the rise. If you suspect your loved one isn’t being cared for properly in a residential care facility, you may be able to file a nursing home abuse lawsuit.
$2 Million for the family of a patient who passed away after being denied care
$1.2 Million to an elderly nursing home resident
$1 Million for a client whose mother-in-law with dementia was neglected
$1.5 Million for a woman with stage 4 bedsores
Compensation from a nursing home abuse lawsuit can help pay for medical bills, assist with funeral expenses, and provide you with the money needed to transfer your loved one to a safer facility.
“With the number of seniors expected to rise over the next decade, this neglect will likely rise unless lawyers can make it financially painful enough for these companies to have to stop.” – Ricky Leblanc, Managing Attorney at Sokolove Law

Michigan Dog Bite Injuries
Dog bites can cause serious physical and emotional harm. These animals can also injure people in other ways, like by jumping up and knocking someone over.
Common injuries from dogs in Michigan can include:
Bruising
Emotional trauma
Fractures and broken bones
Infections
Nerve damage
Puncture wounds
Scarring
Tendon or ligament damage
Death
A dog bite lawsuit can allow you to access much-needed compensation after an unexpected injury. This money is often awarded through the dog owner's homeowners or renters insurance policy.
Car & Truck Accidents in MI
Thousands of car accidents take place throughout Michigan each year. These crashes can result in serious injuries, property damage, and even death.
When an accident involves a truck or commercial vehicle, the damage may be more severe due to the size and weight of these vehicles.
Victims of an auto accident may be pressured into accepting low offers from an insurance company — but our car crash attorneys can fight to get you the results you need.
Slip & Fall Accidents in Michigan
Slip and fall accidents can happen to anyone. Wet floors, broken stairs, uneven flooring, and cluttered walkways can all lead to unexpected injury.
When public places like parking lots, businesses, or even the outside of someone’s home aren’t properly maintained, they can become dangerous and put you at risk.
If you’ve been injured by slipping and falling in a public space, you may be eligible to file a lawsuit and pursue compensation.
Workplace Injuries & Workers Comp in Michigan
Workplace injuries or illnesses can have a significant impact on an individual’s health and their ability to earn an income. In Michigan, employees are usually entitled to workers' compensation benefits.
However, your employer’s insurance company may try to deny your claim. They could also downplay your injury in an attempt to avoid paying what you’re owed.
In one case, we secured $500,000 for a nurse who dislocated her ankle while trying to prevent a patient from falling.
Workers’ compensation covers anything from a strained muscle to chemical poisoning or a traumatic brain injury.
