Pejic Law Personal Injury

Personal Injury Attorney in Michigan City, IN

20+ Years of Helping the Injured Pursue Fair Compensation & Accountability

Recovering from an injury involves more than physical healing. It also requires understanding your legal rights and the steps needed to protect them. If someone else’s actions caused your injury, you may be entitled to pursue compensation. But that process isn’t always straightforward, especially when insurance companies and liability disputes are involved.

At Pejic Law, we represent individuals who’ve suffered injuries due to another person’s negligence. Over the last two decades, we’ve worked with clients throughout LaPorte, Porter, Lake, and St. Joseph Counties, offering legal counsel that’s direct, precise, and tailored to the individual circumstances of each case.

How We Support Injured Individuals

As personal injury attorneys, we play a critical role in helping our clients move forward, legally and financially. Here's how we support the people we represent:

  • Investigating the Details. We take the time to collect evidence from all relevant sources, whether that includes accident reports from the Michigan City Police Department, surveillance footage, or statements from nearby witnesses.
  • Organizing Medical & Financial Documentation. Medical expenses, missed time at work, and long-term care needs can accumulate quickly. We help our clients organize and present these losses thoroughly.
  • Dealing with Insurance Companies. From the first phone call to final negotiations, we handle communication with insurance adjusters. Our focus is on protecting each claim and avoiding tactics that minimize the value of your case.
  • Filing a Lawsuit When Necessary. If fair resolution can't be reached through negotiation, we are prepared to file suit and pursue the case in the appropriate civil court.
  • Offering Legal Guidance from Start to Finish. We maintain consistent communication, provide honest feedback, and help our clients prepare for each stage of the legal process.

Types of Personal Injury Cases We Handle

We focus on personal injury cases that arise from negligence or preventable conduct. These cases involve real harm and deserve careful legal attention.

  • Car Accidents. We represent individuals injured in collisions across Michigan City and the surrounding areas.
  • Wrongful Death. Families who’ve lost a loved one due to negligence often face a long list of legal and financial questions. We assist with civil claims and litigation.
  • Slip & Fall Incidents. When property owners fail to address known hazards, we work to hold them accountable under Indiana’s premises liability standards.
  • Negligence Claims. Not all injuries fall into neat categories. If you were harmed due to carelessness or preventable actions, we’re available to assess the situation.

If you’re unsure whether your situation qualifies as a personal injury case, we encourage you to contact our office. We can review your circumstances and provide guidance tailored to your specific concerns.

What to Expect from Your Case Consultation: Honest & Strategic Legal Counsel

The first step in any case is understanding where you stand. At Pejic Law, we offer consultations that are rooted in candor. During your consultation, we’ll review the facts, walk through the likely course of your case, and give you a straightforward assessment. That includes pointing out where the case may face legal challenges. If your case is not one we can take, we will explain why and provide any guidance we can.

We’ve found that many clients come to us looking for clarity above all else. They want someone to walk through the details with them, without legal jargon, inflated expectations, or unnecessary delays. That’s the kind of consultation we offer.

Start with the right information. Schedule a case review with our Michigan City personal injury team and learn where your case stands.
