Frequently Asked Questions
Do I have a case if I wasn’t at fault?
Yes. Michigan operates under a no-fault insurance system, meaning your own insurance covers medical expenses regardless of who caused the crash. If the accident was due to someone else's negligence, you may be able to file a third-party lawsuit for pain and suffering.
What is a PIP claim in Michigan?
Personal Injury Protection (PIP) is part of Michigan’s no-fault insurance law. It covers medical expenses, lost wages, and attendant care services. However, insurance companies often try to minimize payouts—we help fight for the full benefits you’re owed.
How long do I have to file a claim?
In Michigan, you typically have three years from the accident date to file a third-party lawsuit against a negligent driver. PIP claims must be filed within one year. Missing these deadlines can result in losing your right to compensation.
What if the other driver was uninsured?
If the at-fault driver doesn’t have insurance, you may still recover damages through uninsured/underinsured motorist (UM/UIM) coverage—or by pursuing a lawsuit against responsible parties. We’ll explore all options to ensure you receive proper compensation.
