Questions
What types of cases does Wigod & Falzon handle?
We specialize in personal injury cases including car, truck, and motorcycle accidents, pedestrian injuries, no-fault insurance disputes, wrongful death claims, and general civil litigation throughout Michigan.
How much does a consultation cost?
All initial consultations are completely free with no commitment required. We only pursue cases on a contingency fee basis, meaning you pay nothing unless we win your case.
What areas of Michigan do you serve?
While based in Southfield, we represent clients across Michigan including Detroit, Flint, Grand Rapids, Ann Arbor, Lansing, Jackson, and the Upper Peninsula region.
How are your legal fees structured?
We work exclusively on contingency fees - you pay no upfront costs and our fee comes from your settlement percentage only if we successfully recover compensation for your case.
What is Michigan's statute of limitations for injury cases?
Most personal injury claims must be filed within three years from the accident date. No-fault insurance claims require prompt reporting to preserve benefits eligibility under state law.
Can I sue for pain and suffering in Michigan?
Yes, but you must meet specific thresholds for serious injury. Our attorneys help determine eligibility while proving comparative fault percentages that affect total compensation amounts.
