At Logeman & Iafrate, P.C., we've spent more than 45 years fighting for accident victims across Michigan, including residents of Calhoun County and Battle Creek. Whether you've been injured in a car crash on I-94, hurt in a workplace accident, or dealing with the aftermath of a catastrophic injury, our trial-ready attorneys understand the challenges you're facing and are prepared to fight by your side.
Serving Calhoun County's Communities
Calhoun County's mix of urban centers like Battle Creek, industrial facilities, major highways, and rural roads creates unique accident risks. We represent injured clients from Battle Creek, Marshall, Albion, Springfield, and every community throughout Calhoun County. Our attorneys understand local roadways, courts, and the specific challenges injured residents face when dealing with Michigan's no-fault insurance system.
Decades of Experience Handling Complex Injury Cases
Our attorneys bring six combined decades of experience to every case we handle. We've successfully represented clients in cases involving:
- Car accidents on I-94, I-69, M-66, and other Calhoun County roadways
- Truck accidents involving commercial vehicles on major trucking routes through the area
- Motorcycle crashes resulting in catastrophic injuries
- Workplace and construction accidents at industrial sites and manufacturing facilities
- Wrongful death claims helping families seek justice after losing a loved one
- Catastrophic injuries including spinal cord damage, traumatic brain injuries, and paralysis
We take cases others won't, and we prepare every case for trial. When insurance companies see our name on a file, they know we're prepared to take the case to trial if that's what it takes to secure fair compensation for our clients.
Michigan's No-Fault System and Your Rights
Michigan's no-fault auto insurance system is complex and often misunderstood. After an accident, you typically file a claim with your own insurance company for Personal Injury Protection (PIP) benefits, which can cover medical expenses, wage loss, and replacement services. However, the 2019-2020 no-fault reforms changed coverage levels significantly, and many Calhoun County residents may have limited PIP coverage without realizing it.
If your injuries meet Michigan's "serious impairment of body function" threshold, you can also pursue a third-party claim against the at-fault driver for pain and suffering, excess medical expenses, and other damages not covered by no-fault benefits. Our attorneys have extensive experience navigating both no-fault claims and third-party lawsuits to pursue the full compensation you're owed.
Fighting Insurance Companies That Deny Legitimate Claims
Insurance companies are in the business of paying as little as possible, even when you're entitled to benefits. We've seen every tactic they use—claiming injuries are "unrelated" to the accident, arguing that treatment is "unnecessary," or simply denying coverage altogether.
Over more than four decades, we have taken insurers to trial when they denied or undervalued legitimate claims. Our verdicts and settlements include a $2 million settlement for a client who suffered a traumatic brain injury whose insurer denied all benefits, and a $1 million verdict against Amerisure after an 18-year fight over no-fault benefits. Past results do not guarantee future outcomes; each case is decided on its own facts.
Compassionate Support When You Need It Most
We understand that dealing with serious injuries affects every aspect of your life—your health, your family, your finances, and your future. Our team provides compassionate support throughout the legal process while we handle the complexities of your case. You focus on healing while we fight for the compensation you need to rebuild your life.
We offer free consultations and operate on a contingency-fee basis, meaning we don't get paid unless we win your case. You pay nothing up front, and there's no cost to call us to discuss your situation.

Frequently Asked Questions
Find answers to what matters most about your case and how we work.
How long do I have to file a personal injury lawsuit in Calhoun County?
Michigan's statute of limitations for most personal injury cases is three years from the date of the injury. However, no-fault insurance claims require you to notify your insurer within one year of the accident to preserve your benefits. Because deadlines vary depending on the type of case, it's essential to contact an attorney as soon as possible after your accident to protect your rights.
What damages can I recover after a Calhoun County car accident?
You may recover PIP benefits from your own insurance company for medical expenses, wage loss (up to 85% of gross income), and replacement services. If your injuries meet Michigan's threshold for serious impairment of body function, you can also pursue a third-party claim against the at-fault driver for pain and suffering, excess medical expenses beyond your PIP coverage, and other damages. Our attorneys evaluate both avenues to pursue the full compensation you're owed.
Do I need a lawyer if the insurance company already made me an offer?
Yes. Insurance companies routinely make low initial offers hoping you'll settle quickly before understanding the full extent of your injuries and losses. Many injuries, especially traumatic brain injuries and soft tissue damage, don't show their full impact immediately. An experienced attorney can evaluate whether the offer is fair and negotiate for the compensation you truly deserve.
What if I was partially at fault for the accident in Calhoun County?
Michigan follows a modified comparative negligence rule. If you're more than 50% at fault, you cannot recover damages from other parties. However, if you're 50% or less at fault, you can still recover damages, though your award will be reduced by your percentage of fault. Our attorneys investigate every accident thoroughly to establish liability and protect your right to compensation.
How much does it cost to hire a personal injury attorney in Calhoun County?
Nothing up front. We work on a contingency-fee basis, which means we don't charge any legal fees unless we recover compensation for you. There's no cost to call us for a free consultation to discuss your case, and you'll never receive a bill unless we win.
