Spotlight: Wheel‑Off & Component Failure
When a wheel separates from a car, SUV, bus, or semi, the results are catastrophic. These cases demand fast, technical investigation:
- Evidence control: preserve the wheel, hub, fasteners, lug nuts/studs, axle, and any detached components; secure maintenance logs.
- Root‑cause analysis: torque procedures, retorque policies, service intervals, retread/tire history, recalls, and part‑defect investigation.
- Multiple defendants: vehicle owner, maintenance contractors, fleet operators, parts manufacturers, and installers.
- Scene forensics: scrape marks, yaw evidence, tire imprints, video, and EDR/ECM data.
We coordinate metallurgical, mechanical, tire, and human‑factors experts to prove negligent maintenance or component defect and maximize recovery.

Our Process

- Negotiation & litigation: build settlement leverage; try the case when necessary.
Do I have a case if the other driver left the scene or had no insurance?
Possibly. UM/UIM coverage can step in. We’ll review your policy and any household policies.
Will my health insurance affect my No‑Fault benefits?
It can. Coordination and priority rules matter. We’ll review your policy language to avoid gaps.
How long will this take?
Timelines vary by injury, treatment, and insurer posture. We move quickly on benefits and preserve evidence immediately.
What if I was partially at fault?
You may still recover under Michigan law. Talk to us before assuming you don’t have a claim.
