Upper Michigan Law

If you live in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan and need legal help, you probably don’t want some big firm from a faraway city. You want someone local. Someone who understands your situation. Someone who picks up the phone when you call.

That’s why so many people in the U.P. turn to Upper Michigan Law.

This isn’t just another law office. This is a local team that helps people in towns like Marquette, Houghton, Escanaba, Iron Mountain, and everywhere in between. Whether it’s a car crash, a snowmobile accident, or a tough family situation, they know what to do—and they know how to help.

What Makes Personal Injury Law Different?

• Emotional distress

• Long-term care

Local Help After a Car Accident

Michigan’s Upper Peninsula is beautiful—but also full of driving hazards. Icy roads, low visibility, winding highways, and wildlife crossings can lead to serious car accidents.

Upper Michigan Law helps people hurt in crashes involving:

• Distracted drivers

• Speeding

• Drunk driving

• Rear-end collisions

• Intersection wrecks

• Uninsured or underinsured drivers

They gather police reports, talk to witnesses, work with your doctors, and deal with the insurance company. You don’t have to worry about the legal stuff. They handle it all.

Snowmobile and ATV Injury Claims

Snowmobiles and four-wheelers are a big part of life in Northern Michigan. But when something goes wrong, it can lead to serious injuries. These accidents happen more often than people think—and not everyone knows they may have legal rights after one.

Upper Michigan Law helps victims of:

• Trail collisions

• Crashes caused by other riders

• Equipment failures

• Accidents due to poor trail upkeep

• Drunk or reckless snowmobile drivers

If someone else caused the crash, you could be owed compensation. And this law firm will help you get it.

Motorcycle Accidents and Rider Support

Motorcycle accidents can be devastating. Without the protection of a car, even a small crash can lead to broken bones, spinal injuries, or worse. In many cases, riders are unfairly blamed for things they didn’t cause.

That’s where Upper Michigan Law steps in.

They fight hard to show the truth and get justice for injured riders. Whether you were wearing a helmet or not, you still have rights. They’ll help you recover what you need to heal, repair your bike, and get your life back on track.

Slip and Fall Injuries in Michigan

Winter in the U.P. is no joke. Ice-covered sidewalks, unplowed parking lots, and slippery store floors are a recipe for painful falls. And it’s not just snow—loose stairs, cracked walkways, and poor lighting can all cause serious injuries.

Upper Michigan Law helps clients who’ve fallen at:

• Grocery stores

• Local businesses

• Apartment complexes

• Restaurants

• Government buildings

• Sidewalks and parking lots

They look into whether the property owner was careless. If they were, you could have a case—and they’ll help you prove it.

Wrongful Death Representation for Grieving Families

When a loved one dies in an accident, the emotional pain is overwhelming. But when their death could have been prevented, it’s even harder to accept.

Upper Michigan Law helps families seek justice after a wrongful death. These cases are handled with great care and respect. They work quietly in the background, gathering evidence, talking to experts, and building a case—so you can focus on your family.

They fight for damages like:

• Funeral and burial costs

• Loss of financial support

• Loss of companionship

• Emotional grief and suffering

• Medical bills related to the accident

Family Law Help for Life’s Toughest Moments

Not all legal problems involve accidents. Sometimes, it’s about your family—and doing what’s best for the people you love.

Upper Michigan Law helps with:

• Divorce

• Legal separation

• Child custody and parenting time

• Child support issues

• Spousal support

• Changes to existing orders

Family law cases are personal and emotional. The team treats every case with patience, understanding, and a focus on what’s best for your future.

Criminal Defense for the U.P.

Everyone makes mistakes. And sometimes, people are accused of things they didn’t do. Either way, facing a criminal charge is scary.

Upper Michigan Law helps clients with:

• OWI / DUI charges

• Drug charges

• Theft

• Assault

• Domestic violence

• Juvenile crimes

They explain your rights, walk you through the process, and fight hard for the best possible outcome—whether that means dismissal, reduced charges, or keeping you out of jail.

Wills, Probate, and Estate Planning

Planning for the future doesn’t have to be stressful. Whether you want to write a will, set up a power of attorney, or handle the estate of a loved one who passed, Upper Michigan Law can help.

They offer services like:

• Simple wills

• Living wills

• Powers of attorney

• Probate court filings

• Estate administration

• Trust setup

They keep things simple and clear, with no pressure or legal jargon.

They Know the U.P. Because They Live Here

Upper Michigan isn’t like the rest of the state—and that’s exactly why having a local lawyer matters. The roads are different. The weather is different. The court system is smaller. The communities are tight-knit.

Upper Michigan Law knows all of that. They’re not just practicing law here—they’re living here. Their kids go to local schools. They shop at the same stores. They understand what matters to people in the U.P.

That local knowledge helps them get better results for their clients.

A Law Office That Actually Calls You Back

Here’s something you don’t always get from other law firms: communication. But at Upper Michigan Law, clients say they always feel heard. The staff is friendly. The lawyers explain things clearly. And they never leave you wondering what’s going on with your case.

They believe in answering calls, replying to emails, and treating people with respect.

Real Words From a Client

They explained everything, talked to my insurance, and helped me get money to pay my bills and fix my car. I’m so thankful for their help and support. They didn’t treat me like a case—they treated me like a person.”

No Fees Unless You Win (For Injury Cases)
