Helping You Understand Your Legal Options After A Car Accident
In Michigan, the main avenue for pursuing relief after a crash is a no-fault insurance claim. Michigan law requires all drivers to carry no-fault insurance, including person injury protection (PIP) coverage. Under this system, after an accident, you typically file a claim with your own insurer for the injuries you suffered. In such a car accident claim, you can receive compensation for economic damages from injuries, such as lost wages and medical bills, regardless of who was to blame for your collision. The coverage limit for such damages depends on the specifics of your policy.
Another potential option for seeking compensation is a personal injury case. Under Michigan’s no-fault law, you can only file a lawsuit in connection to a car accident if you meet certain requirements. Personal injury claims allow you to pursue compensation you couldn’t under a no-fault claim, such as pain and suffering damages. However, you have to show someone else was at fault to succeed in car crash lawsuits, which can sometimes prove challenging.
What specific legal options you would have depends on a wide range of factors. Our car accident lawyers can analyze your case and help you find the right path forward.
