FAQs

How much does it cost to hire a lawyer?

Personal Injury and Workers’ Compensation cases are handled on contingency. This means you pay nothing upfront; attorney fees are deducted as a percentage of the total recovery, capped at 33.3% by Michigan Court Rules.

Which court will my case go to?

Jurisdiction depends on the type of case and the money involved.

District Court handles minor civil disputes (property damage, injury) up to $25k.
Circuit Court handles civil disputes over $25k.

Every county in the Upper Peninsula sits within a specific Circuit Court judicial court, which your attorney can advise on during consultation.

Do I need an attorney located in the Upper Michigan county where I live?

No, your attorney’s office does not need to be in the same county where you live, or even the same county where your case will be heard. In fact, if you sustain an injury while working in the Upper Peninsula, your case will likely be heard at the Escanaba hearing location, which is also where our primary office is situated.

Hiring a local law firm that regularly works in the Upper Peninsula will ensure your representation is familiar with regional conditions and can help you avoid paying extra for travel fees when local court appearances are necessary.

We’ve been doing this long enough to know what makes and breaks a case, and we strongly believe that two of the most important components of any attorney-client relationship are accessibility + communication. Without these, success becomes harder to define and a lot harder to achieve. That’s why we shoot straight and honest from the start.

We’ll tell you what’s possible, what’s not, and how we plan to fight for what you deserve. You’ll always know where your case stands, what’s coming next, and how to get a hold of us if anything changes on your end because that’s what accessibility and communication look like at Upper Michigan Law.

What It’s Like to Work with Upper Michigan Law

When you hire Upper Michigan Law, you’re partnering with local Upper Michigan attorneys who live and work in the U.P. We know the territory, the judges, the courts, and the community that serves on jury panels. We know what it takes to win your case in the U.P.

Our clients come to us in some of the most desperate moments of their lives, and we don’t take that lightly. Our approach is professional, approachable, and hard-hitting when it matters most.
We take a team approach to ensure your situation benefits from the collective knowledge of every member of our team, not just one attorney.
We’ve secured millions of dollars in settlements and verdicts for our past clients, and our reputation precedes us in the Upper Peninsula's legal landscape.

Whether you’re unsure if your situation warrants legal action or you’re certain it does, we welcome the chance to talk through the details together during an initial consultation.

Wherever you’re located in the Upper Peninsula, we invite you to give us a call at (906) 212-8797 to start the conversation.
