Southfield, MI personal injury attorney Johnny Hawkins talks about how much you can recover for your car accident injuries. He states that the amount a client can recover from a car accident is closely tied to the severity and extent of their injuries. Generally, the more serious the injury, the greater the potential recovery. While no one desires serious harm, the legal system allows for maximum recovery when substantial injuries occur. In essence, the greater the impact on the individual’s life, the higher the compensation that can be pursued, reflecting the true consequences of the accident.
