What are Michigan's insurance laws?
Michigan is a No-fault state when it comes to insurance. This means that
your own car insurance company will pay for most of the losses you suffered
in an accident, regardless of who was to blame for it. These are known
as first-party benefits or no-fault insurance benefits.
There is a strict statute of limitations of three years to file a personal
injury claim in Michigan, which means you need to contact an attorney
and get started on your claim as soon as you can. Many times insurance
companies work to minimize their costs by denying claims and shelling
out less compensation than you deserve. This is one of the many reasons
that having seasoned legal counsel can make a huge difference, especially
when dealing with difficult insurance companies.
Our Oakdale County car accident lawyer can strengthen your claim by:
- Collecting information from and questioning any witnesses
- Documenting and reconstructing the accident scene
- Contacting your insurance company
- Examining all relevant medical documentation
- Securing all police reports and accident reports
- Hiring expert witnesses
With an attorney from the Law Offices of Todd J. Stearn, P.C. on your side,
you have a fighting chance when pursuing the compensation you need to
move forward with your life.
How does no-fault insurance work?
No-fault Insurance is required by law in Michigan. The policy has three
basic parts: Personal Injury Protection (PIP), Property Protection (PPI),
and Residual Liability Insurance.
These three parts cover the following:
- Pay all medical costs, as well as up to 85% of your income for up to three years
- Entitle you to up to $20 a day for household services you can't perform
due to an injury
- Pay up to $1 million for damage your car does to other people's property
- Protect you from being sued due to an auto accident, except in certain
situations
