        When To Hire a Personal Injury Lawyer

        You should consider hiring a personal injury lawyer in the following situations:

        • Serious Injuries: If you have sustained severe or life-altering injuries, a personal injury lawyer can help you navigate the complexities of your case and ensure you receive the full compensation you deserve.
        • Disputed Liability: If the responsible party or their insurance company is denying liability or placing the blame on you, a lawyer can investigate the accident, gather evidence, and build a strong case to establish fault.
        • Complex Cases: Personal injury cases involving multiple parties, extensive injuries, or intricate legal issues can benefit from the expertise of a lawyer who can handle the complexities effectively.
        • Insurance Companies' Tactics: Insurance companies may use various tactics to minimize your claim's value. A skilled personal injury lawyer can negotiate with them on your behalf and protect your rights.
        • Statute of Limitations: Personal injury claims have specific time limits (statute of limitations) within which you must file a lawsuit. If the deadline is approaching, consulting with a lawyer promptly is essential to preserve your right to compensation.
        • Loss of Income: If your injuries have resulted in significant time off work or reduced earning capacity, a lawyer can help assess the impact on your future financial well-being and seek fair compensation.
        • Wrongful Death: In cases involving the wrongful death of a loved one, a personal injury lawyer can assist surviving family members in pursuing a wrongful death claim for financial losses and emotional suffering.
        • Maximizing Compensation: A personal injury lawyer can help ensure you receive the maximum compensation available for your medical expenses, pain and suffering, lost wages, and other damages.

        Hiring a personal injury lawyer can level the playing field and provide you with the expertise and support needed to navigate the legal process effectively, increasing your chances of a successful claim and fair compensation.

        • If I am injured in a car accident, may I file a claim against the driver who caused the collision even though I have "no-fault"
          Yes. Michigan law permits an injured party to file a claim against a negligent driver. This type of claim is often referred to as a "third-party lawsuit." Under Michigan law, an injured party is entitled to bring a third-party lawsuit for non-economic damages (i.e., pain and suffering) if the injured person has suffered either: a serious injury, a serious and permanent disfigurement, or death. Additionally, in a third-party case you must prove that someone other than yourself was at-fault for causing the accident.
        • If I am injured in a car accident, and I am at fault for causing the accident, am I still entitled to receive insurance benefits
          Yes. Michigan is a "no-fault" auto insurance state. This means you receive insurance benefits even if you were at fault for causing the accident.
        • If I am injured in a car accident and don't have health insurance, will my car insurance company pay my medical bills?

          What about other things such as lost wages if I am unable to work?

          Most likely, yes.  Most auto insurance policies sold in Michigan provide “personal protection insurance” (PIP) benefits.  Under this PIP coverage, your car insurer must pay all of your accident-related medical bills up to the coverage limit amount.  Your auto insurer must also pay your wage loss if you cannot return to work.  It must pay up to $20 a day for someone to do your household chores if you are injured and cannot do them.  It must also pay “attendant care” benefits if you need supervision or nursing-type care because of your injuries.  After the 2019 amendments to the no-fault law, some drivers are allowed to opt out of purchasing PIP coverage.  However, most policies sold in the state still provide at least some PIP coverage.
