Have You Been Injured in Oakland County?

Personal Injury Services in Oakland County, MI

Oakland County’s busy highways, commercial districts, workplaces, and neighborhoods see accidents every day. When someone else’s negligence leaves you facing medical treatment, missed work, or other losses, VanStone Injury Law works to identify your legal options and build your claim.

Our practice areas include:

Car & Truck Accident Litigation

We represent victims of trucking cases involving multiple parties and significant damages.

Uber & Lyft Accidents

We help injured passengers with rideshare-related bodily injury claims involving Michigan No-Fault coverage.

Motorcycle Accidents

Motorcyclists are some of the most vulnerable drivers on the road. We advocate for injured riders after collisions caused by careless or reckless motorists.

Pedestrian & Bicycle Accidents

Pedestrians, cyclists, and e-bike riders face unique risks on Oakland County’s streets. We investigate the scene and available insurance coverage to build the strongest possible claim for injured riders and walkers.

Slip-and-Falls & Premises Liability

We represent plaintiffs injured by dangerous property conditions when an owner fails its duty to maintain reasonably safe premises.

Dog Bites & Animal Attacks

We pursue compensation from negligent owners under Michigan’s dog bite protections, representing clients dealing with puncture wounds, scarring, and lasting fear of dogs.

Medical Provider & No-Fault Claims

We represent Michigan medical providers in No-Fault reimbursement disputes and handle the PIP side of a client’s case alongside the injury claim itself, so clients aren’t left to navigate insurance billing disputes on their own.

Other Negligence Cases

We also handle ATV and UTV crashes, snowmobile accidents, defective product claims, wrongful death cases, and other injury matters where someone else’s negligence caused serious harm.

Your case doesn’t need to fit neatly into one category before you contact us. An Oakland personal injury attorney at VanStone Injury Law can review what happened and explain the claims and insurance benefits that may apply.

How VanStone Builds Your Case

One of the easiest mistakes in personal injury law is treating every case the same. Two people can have the same diagnosis and very different circumstances. VanStone’s attorneys and legal team work to document not only the medical diagnosis, but how an injury affects work, family responsibilities, activities, and everyday life.

Step 1

We Document What Changed

A back injury affects someone who works on their feet differently than someone who works at a desk. A shoulder injury can change how a parent cares for young kids. Someone might return to work but lose the ability to exercise, keep up a home, golf, or ride a bike. Medical records show what was diagnosed and treated; they don’t show what changed. We spend time developing those facts.

Step 2

We Gather the Details

VanStone pairs attorneys with paralegals, legal assistants, and case-management systems built to keep cases moving so lawyers can focus on strategy, negotiation, depositions, and court. The system exists for one reason: so the details that make your case different never get lost.

Step 3

We Prepare With Both Sides in Mind

Several of our attorneys previously represented insurance companies and defendants. Others came from large Michigan plaintiff firms. We’ve seen how claims get evaluated from both sides. Now we put that experience to work for injured people.

Why Choose VanStone Injury Law in Oakland County?

Choosing a personal injury lawyer in Oakland County means finding an attorney who understands Michigan injury law and prepares for both settlement negotiations and litigation.

VanStone Injury Law combines detailed case preparation with local accessibility through offices in Pontiac and West Bloomfield.

Oakland County Representation

Our attorneys handle Michigan personal injury and No-Fault matters and understand the legal and insurance issues these cases often involve.

Prepared for Settlement or Trial

Many injury claims resolve through negotiation, but not every case should settle. We prepare each matter for the possibility of litigation.

Accessible Throughout the County

With offices in Pontiac and West Bloomfield, VanStone serves clients throughout Oakland County and also offers phone and remote consultations.

Local Knowledge of Oakland County Courts and Personal Injury Law

Oakland County’s Sixth Judicial Circuit Court is located in Pontiac and handles personal injury matters within its jurisdiction. District courts throughout the county also handle certain personal injury cases based on the type and value of the dispute.

VanStone Injury Law builds each case around its facts, whether it resolves through insurance negotiations or proceeds to litigation.

No Fee Unless We Win

VanStone Injury Law handles qualifying personal injury cases on a contingency fee basis. You pay no attorney fees unless we recover compensation.

You also don’t pay upfront attorney fees to start a qualifying case.

Proven Results for Michigan Plaintiffs

Every personal injury case depends on its injuries, evidence, available insurance coverage, and other facts. Past results do not guarantee a similar outcome.

Our focus remains on careful preparation and pursuing the compensation available under Michigan law.

Experienced With Car Accidents & Michigan No-Fault Claims

Car and truck crashes are a major part of our Oakland County personal injury practice. These cases may involve hit-and-run drivers, disputed fault, commercial vehicles, pre-existing injuries, uninsured motorists, or disagreements over available coverage.

Michigan No-Fault adds another layer. Depending on the facts and insurance coverage, an injured person may have claims involving medical expenses, wage loss, replacement services, attendant care, and other PIP benefits.

VanStone Injury Law handles both injury claims and Michigan No-Fault issues arising from crashes. That gives clients one legal team to handle all parts of their case.

$500,000

Passenger Injured in Uber Crash

Our client was riding in a rideshare vehicle with a broken seatbelt when a crash caused a sudden stop, resulting in shoulder and spine injuries requiring rotator-cuff surgery.

$350,000

Hit-and-Run Recovery

A hit-and-run driver ran a stop sign, struck our client’s vehicle, and left the scene. VanStone compared pre- and post-crash medical imaging to counter the defense’s pre-existing-injury argument.

$150,000

Recovery After a Fall Outside a Retailer

Snow concealed an open drain, injuring our client’s knee, ankle, and wrist. VanStone developed evidence on who was responsible for maintaining the area and obtained testimony to counter the defense.

The recovery amounts published on this site may be reduced from the actual amounts, and certain facts may be generalized, altered, or omitted to protect client anonymity. Past results do not guarantee similar outcomes. Every case depends on its own facts, injuries, evidence, insurance coverage, and applicable law.
