Legal Question in Personal Injury in Michigan
I was leaving work and came to close to the edge of the side walk. Due to the uneven level, about a 3 inch drop down to the grass I lost my balance and fell. Personally I would not care, but I landed belly down and am 24 weeks pregnant. Everyone at my husbands work is telling us that we should file a law suit, but I am just looking for a second opinion before contacting a lawyer. I did go right to the hospital once I arrived home from work. Was checked out told that things looked ok, but due to the age of the baby there was not much they could do to monitor. So I was put on bed rest for two days and am told to take it easy and watch for signs and symptoms of abruption or by other issues. Thanks.

If you did not have any injury or damage, there is no reason to sue. If the fetus was injured, you might have a case.
Just keep a close medical eye on things. Also make a report with your employer now, so they don't question later if there becomes a case. I agree there is no case without injuries to you or the baby.
