Getting the Right Medical Care for Michigan Car Accident Victims

The auto accident attorneys of Michigan Auto Law review the importance of getting the right medical care, at the right time, and documenting any and all accident-related injuries immediately following a Michigan car accident. For all car accident victims who suffer injuries of any kind, this is a very stressful time.

With the challenges of Michigan’s no fault insurance law and time limits for filing, it is truly a race against time to receive complete and appropriate medical care for all car accident related injuries. It is also helpful to be aware of common car accident injuries that are initially “masked” or hidden in the first weeks or months following the accident.

Michigan Car Accident Victims: Getting the Right Medical Care

The car accident lawyers of Michigan Auto law stress the importance of getting the right medical for all related car accident injuries, avoiding delays that can harm the health and case of injured accident victims, and how to handle delays or car insurance companies’ requests for case managers and independent medical exams.

Michigan Car Accident Victims: Handling Masked Injuries

Michigan no fault law requires that injured car accident victims report any and all injuries received in an automobile accident within the first 12 months following the car accident. This makes it very difficult for people who have already suffered serious physical injuries, and then have additional injuries that were “masked” by the more serious ones. Regretfully, Michigan car accident attorneys have seen far too many people become forever ineligible to receive benefits for car accident injuries that were not specifically reported to the car insurance company within the first year of the car accident.
