Questions
How long will my personal injury case take?
Case duration varies based on injury severity and liability disputes. Straightforward cases settle in months, while contested claims may take 1-2 years.
Can I recover compensation if partially at fault?
Michigan's modified comparative fault rule allows recovery if less than 50% responsible, with compensation reduced by your fault percentage.
Should I talk to insurance adjusters?
Let our attorneys handle communications to prevent statements being used against your claim. Avoid giving recorded statements without legal representation.
Do I need a lawyer for no-fault insurance claims?
Our attorneys ensure fair no-fault coverage for medical bills and lost wages, challenging denials or underpayments while you focus on recovery.
What damages can I claim for car accidents?
Recover medical expenses, lost income, pain and suffering, home modifications, and future care costs through negotiated settlements or trials.
How are attorney fees structured?
We work on contingency - no fees unless we win your case. Fees come from settlement proceeds with no upfront costs.
