Understanding No-Fault Insurance In Michigan

Michigan operates under a no-fault insurance system, which can be complex and often misunderstood by many motorists. Under this system, when you purchase personal injury protection (PIP) coverage, it not only protects you but also extends to other members of your household. This coverage is comprehensive, covering lifetime medical expenses and reimbursing 85% of lost wages for up to three years if you are incapacitated in an auto accident.

In the unfortunate event of a fatality, no-fault insurance provides your family with up to three years of survivors' loss benefits. It also covers up to $20 a day for replacement services such as lawn mowing, house cleaning, and other everyday tasks. The Michigan no-fault insurance law offers additional benefits, making it essential to fully understand the scope of your coverage.

Experienced Legal Support For No-Fault Claims

Our commitment is to ensure that the injured receive full and fair compensation for their economic losses, and pain and suffering. Our team is always ready to provide sound advice and support for your no-fault insurance claim.

Our Ann Arbor lawyers understand that insurance companies may deny legitimate personal injury claims. To combat this, we offer a complimentary no-fault claim service to ensure car accident victims receive the compensation they deserve. This service includes filling out and filing your claim on your behalf at absolutely no charge, ensuring you are treated fairly and your rights are protected.

Common Pitfalls In Motor Vehicle Accident Claims

Navigating no-fault claims can be fraught with challenges that may jeopardize your benefits. Simple mistakes policyholders make can prevent them from collecting the benefits they deserve.

We will help ensure that:

  • Your claim is filed on time: There is a strict one-year time limit for filing a no-fault insurance claim.
  • Your claim is complete: Your medical condition and other information must be properly documented. If not, your insurance company may deny the claim when there is no time to correct the omission or error.
  • Your claim is filed with the correct company: If you mistakenly file your claim with the wrong company, you may not receive a response until the one-year deadline has passed.
  • You are paid for care you provide: No-fault insurance should reimburse you, at a fair rate, for attendant care you provide for the injured person, even if the injured person is a family member.
  • You are paid for home modifications: An amputee or other person disabled in an accident is entitled to compensation for necessary handicap accommodations.
  • Your legitimate claim is not denied on the basis of another medical condition or pre-existing condition.

While you may not always need an attorney, situations where your claim is denied, payments are delayed, or other complications arise with your insurance company are instances where our legal expertise can be invaluable. We can also assist if you encounter insurance bad faith, potentially entitling you to additional damages beyond your original claim.
