| Giroux Pappas Law is a boutique trial firm representing seriously injured people across Farmington Hills and Oakland County, from crashes on I-696 and M-5 to harm that happens closer to home. If you are looking for a personal injury attorney in Farmington Hills, MI, you will work directly with the attorneys handling your case, not a case manager. |
Why Clients Choose Us
We represent injured people and families throughout Farmington Hills and the surrounding Oakland County communities, including Novi, Southfield, West Bloomfield and Farmington. Because we take fewer cases than the high-volume firms whose billboards line Grand River Avenue, each client gets the attention their case deserves.
The serious injuries we see here tend to cluster in a few areas: auto accident claims along the I-696 and M-5 corridors, medical malpractice at area hospitals like Corewell Health Farmington Hills, and the birth injury and wrongful death cases that ask the most of a family. Serious injury claims from this area are generally filed in the Oakland County Circuit Court in Pontiac, and we prepare every case as if it will be tried there. If you are not certain your situation fits, a short conversation is usually the fastest way to find out, and you can always start by reading about our broader Michigan personal injury work.
Client Stories
How a Farmington Hills personal injury lawyer at Giroux Pappas works with you
A client’s husband was taken to the hospital because of his chest pain. Our client informed hospital staff that he required close supervision due to his dementia and blindness. Nevertheless, he was left unattended and was able to leave the hospital without staff being aware. Tragically, he was found later by police officers after he died from hypothermia.
Yes. Our headquarters is in Farmington Hills, and we represent clients across Oakland County, including Novi, Southfield, West Bloomfield and Farmington, along with the rest of Michigan. You can meet an attorney at our local office, they can come to you or you can start with a phone consultation.
We handle serious Michigan personal injury matters, including auto accident claims, medical malpractice, birth injury and wrongful death.
We work on a contingency basis. That means we front the costs of your case and only collect a fee if we recover compensation for you. If we do not recover, you owe us nothing.
In most negligence cases in Michigan, you have three years to file a personal injury claim. However, medical malpractice claims carry a two-year deadline from the date of negligence. Because statutes can vary by case type it is best to discuss this with an attorney.
Often, no. In auto and many other claims, the case is really against an insurance company and not the individual. We can explain exactly who a claim would involve before you decide anything.
| Medical malpractice happens when a healthcare provider’s care falls below the accepted standard and causes harm, such as a misdiagnosis, a surgical error or a preventable complication. These cases are complex, and we investigate them carefully before moving forward. |
As soon as you reasonably can. Early involvement lets us preserve evidence, document your injuries and deal with insurers while you focus on recovering.
If you were seriously injured in Farmington Hills or anywhere in Oakland County, you can talk directly with an attorney about what happened and where you stand. There is no pressure and no obligation, and no fee unless we recover compensation for you.
