Accident With Two Blue Cars

No-Fault Insurance in Michigan

Michigan is known as a no-fault insurance state. The No-Fault Automobile Insurance Act provides Michigan drivers with many benefits, including medical expenses, lost wages, home care subsidies, mileage reimbursement, and other types of damages. Michigan’s No-Fault laws also limit the types of automobile accident-related lawsuits. 

Automobile Accident Injury

There are few things that are more stressful than being involved in an automobile accident. This stress is magnified when a serious injury is involved to you or a loved one. If you or a loved one has been involved in an automobile accident and were injured, please contact Van Tubergen, Treutler & Hayes, PLLC for a free consultation to discuss your rights. 

A suit in negligence can be brought in Michigan under certain circumstances. You may be entitled to additional compensation, including damages for pain and suffering if you or a member of your family has been involved in an automobile accident involving a wrongful death, a serious permanent disfigurement, or a serious impairment of a bodily function. If you meet one of these criteria, please contact the auto accident attorneys at Van Tubergen, Treutler & Hayes in Grand Haven, MI, to discuss your rights. (616) 844-3000.

The laws have recently changed. Many people have heard about the change in the law, but they are unaware of what their rights are. Many people may be entitled to recovery and not even know it. The Michigan Supreme Court recently issued an opinion that may give more people access to recovery. The case McCormick v. Carrier, which was issued in mid-2010, changes the scope of what the term “serious impairment of a bodily function” means. If you have been involved in a car accident and you are unsure whether you are experiencing a serious impairment of a bodily function, please contact the car accident lawyers in Grand Haven, MI, at Van Tubergen, Treutler & Hayes to schedule a free consultation to discuss your rights. 

Automobile Accident Attorney Fees

Legal representation for personal injury actions (i.e. automobile accidents, premises liability, medical malpractice, etc) to recover damages for your injuries are based on a contingency fee. This means that you will not have to pay any legal fees until we get a recovery/settlement for you. The legal fees are then simply an agreed upon percentage of any damage award, settlement or recovery that we get for you. It is as simple as that, legal representation with no financial risk.
