Emotional trauma is real—and recognized under Michigan law.
You may be able to sue for emotional distress when:
- It’s tied to a physical injury (e.g., car crash, assault, medical malpractice)
- You witnessed a horrific injury to a loved one
- You were the victim of civil rights violations, sexual harassment, discrimination, or police misconduct
Common symptoms include:
- PTSD
- Anxiety or depression
- Panic attacks
- Insomnia
- Social withdrawal
Courts in Michigan have awarded damages for emotional trauma—especially in civil rights and personal injury cases. (Check out Jon Marko’s track record in high-profile trauma cases.)
