Chloe Silver, Muskegon, MI
One ordinary Friday commute home changed my life forever when I was involved in an auto accident. I researched attorneys for a long time before I decided to even talk to anyone. I reached out to Michigan Auto Law and it was one of the best decisions I have ever made. Rick Houghton is an extremely knowledgeable and compassionate attorney. He always treated me with respect and answered all of my questions. For two years, Rick Houghton was always the first person to contact me about any of my doctor’s appointments. He helped me through a situation I wish I was never involved in. He truly cared about my well being and his number one goal wasn’t money but me being as pain free as possible. He fought hard for me and I got a great settlement! If you find yourself looking for an attorney after an auto accident I 100 percent recommend Rick. Thank you for all you did for me!LOAD MORE

I am so happy with Michigan Auto Law and especially Rick Houghton. I was on the fence about even hiring a lawyer and everyone at Michigan Auto Law made me feel confident and answered all of my questions patiently. My case was not black and white, and it took a while, but Rick pushed forward and settled for 2x what we originally thought. I would highly recommend Rick and Michigan Auto Law to my family and friends.

I had the pleasure of working with Rick Houghton at Michigan Auto Law and he was excellent. He knew how to navigate through this process and how to help me jump through all the hoops demanded by the insurance adjuster. This was lengthy process but Rick's communication was great and I always knew what was going on. He is extrmely easy to talk with and when we needed addional support he put together an excellent team. The case was settled and the insurance adjuster worked well with Rick in the end to get this resolved. I'm grateful that I can now put this behind me and I'm lucky to have had an attorney like Rick.

My husband and I had a very prolonged lawsuit against an auto insurance provider on behalf of our son who was seriouslyinjured. Through covid, court delays, and everything else we had to deal with Michigan Auto Law stood by us. We feel that we never would have had a favorable outcome without their expertise. We dealt with four lawyers from their team over the years and they were a great bunch of guys. Very down to earth and easy to talk to, they explained everything clearly through the entire process. We would highly recommend Michigan Auto Law.

There were two things that really made me appreciate the associates at Michigan Auto Law. First and for most was how there were there for my mother since day one. Thank you. Second was there conduct, very prompt to respond, incredibly considerate, and there was no grey area. (When the said it that's what it was) They have sincerely earned it with me and you should chose Michigan Auto Law to represent you too.

I’ve never been in a car accident before until 2021 and it was a scary thing to have to endure. The accident was not my fault but yet ,when I saw that I had medical bills, I lost it. I didn’t know what do, who to call or anything. Then I contacted Michigan Auto Law and they were very reassuring that everything was going to be taken care of. It took a long while until things got going but after all that everything was smooth sailing. They got me taken care just like they said and my attorney, Rick, was nothing but trustworthy and honest about the situation. If I ever get into another accident, I pray I don’t or anyone does, Michigan Auto Law will be the place I call. Thank you!!

The entire staff at Michigan Auto Law was phenomenal. Rick Houghton, my attorney, was diligent, timely and went to bat for me and my family ended up with a settlement that will certainly help improve our future. Rick not only fought for me in the suit against the opposing insurance, but he also went above and beyond and help be my advocate with my insurance company. Rick made sure that I was treated fairly, and I am so forever grateful that I chose Michigan Auto Law and Rick to represent me. I didn't feel like I was dealing with a snobby lawyer; I felt like I was talking to a friend. Rick, again you're awesome!!!

Auto law I can’t thank them enough for what they did for me. It was the lowest point in my life they listen to me. They helped me mentally physically and emotionally because of anybody goes through this I’m telling you what it’s really emotional and I think the support of the emotional Believe it or not was better than the amount of money they got me. They could’ve got me more money, but it would’ve ripped my family apart because some of them don’t understand when you have a lawsuit they’re not suing the person their self. They are suing the insurance company and my fiancé who caused the accident thought I was suing him so they went with my wishes, I can’t thank them enough. I highly recommend them and thank you Auto law for being human with also being attorneys, which is very rare.

Our attorney Rick Houghton has been amazing. My husband was killed in a motorcycle accident where the driver was clearly negligent. Rick listened. If we had questions he answered them. He didn’t pass us off to a paralegal. He took an actual part in our case even helping with issues when it came to the dispersement when we had family that thought they deserved more than what they going to get. He has been supportive and helpful. He gave of real time lines for our case to be finesse as well. I cannot recommend r them enough. I pray your never need them but it the time comes and you. Find your self dealing with the loss of a loved on these people know their business

I thought I was going to be fine but when my pain wouldn't go away and my family noticed how much trouble I was having, my husband reached out to Michigan Auto Law for help that I wasn't willing to call for myself. I'm not a confrontational person, so the last thing I thought to do was hire an attorney for a lawsuit. I just wanted to make sure my medical bills and time missed from work were taken care of. Tim Holland and Rick Houghton took care of everything for me and even a pain and suffering claim that I didn't know I was entitled to. I appreciate everything Tim, Rick, and everyone at Michigan Auto Law have done for me and will be happy to recommend them to others.

I was really banged up after my car crash but didn't think I needed an attorney because of Michigan's No-Fault laws (I had no idea what this meant). My sister thought otherwise and was able to find Michigan Auto Law through their amazing Google reviews (even while she lives in Las Vegas). She called for me and within minutes the firm called me back to review my case. Rick Houghton and his team did an amazing job processing my claims with both my insurance company and the insurance for the at-fault vehicle. I am thankful for the work they did and will be happy to recommend them to anyone I know.

My dad helped me find Michigan Auto Law through researching on the internet. Being from Battle Creek, we wanted a firm that both had the resources and experience to help us through the loss of my mother. We interviewed at least a dozen firms and Michigan Auto Law stood out for their compassion and understanding. I have no doubt this was a complicated process, but Rick Houghton and Tim Holland made it as easy as possible with their experience and knowledge. Our case moved along faster than expected and I know we received the maximum compensation we could have. Nobody wants to deal with insurance companies and difficult claims processes while trying to grieve, thankfully with Michigan Auto Law we didn't have to and we could focus on our family.

I worked closely with Rick Houghton and Tim Holland with MI Auto Law. Both gentlemen were great about being patient with my sometimes sporadic communication, as well as taking the time to explain terms, policies, and procedures to me. Tim did a great job getting me ready for my deposition, which was (for me) the most stressful part of the process, but it went so smoothly and I felt so prepared, going in. I would recommend their services to anyone who's suffered injury from an auto accident.

My experience with Michigan Auto Law was great. From day one they were extremely supportive. After my accident I wasn’t able to move from the couch and they came to me. Not only did Rick Houghton give great legal advise and direction, he also helped with giving me knowledge on how to advocate for myself and seek the best care possible for myself in a medical system that isn’t the most supportive.

I reached out to Michigan Auto Law and it was one of the best decisions I have ever made. Rick Houghton is an extremely knowledgeable and compassionate attorney. He always treated me with respect and answered all of my questions. For two years, Rick Houghton was always the first person to contact me about any of my doctor's appointments. He helped me through a situation I wish I was never involved in. He truly cared about my well being and his number one goal wasn't money but me being as pain free as possible. He fought hard for me and I got a great settlement! If you find yourself looking for an attorney after an auto accident I 100 percent recommend Rick. Thank you for all you did for me!

We couldn’t have had a more compassionate, hard working, thorough lawyer representing us than we had with Rick. We greatly appreciate all he did for us, and the time and effort he put forth to help us. Thank you, Rick, for everything.

Michigan Auto Law in Grand Rapids is the best. I had the honor of working for Rick H and Stephanie. They both fought hard for me to get a settlement best for me. Great follow -up and always available to answer questions. Even after my case was done Rick called to make sure all was well and to let me know he is available for me if I had any questions in the future. I hope no one ever has to suffer an accident but if you do give Rick and his team a call at Michigan auto Law of Grand Rapids.

I had never been through anything like this before. Lots of attorneys to choose from and I didn’t want to make a bad choice so I started researching. After reading hundreds of reviews I narrowed my search down to 3 attorney offices to represent me. The first one I met with was Michigan auto law. I never met with another. They were spot on with all my questions. They immediately set my mind at ease so I could concentrate on healing. They took over from there. My attorney is rick Houghton and instantly we got along like lifetime friends. The guy never let me down. He answered calls and text on weekends and after hours if I had questions , not just Monday through Friday bankers hours.. He did everything he said he was going to do and never left me in the dark on anything. In the end he got me a higher settlement then I expected and I never had to enter a court room. I actually think of him as a friend now!! You won’t find a better person or attorney !!!

I would like to thank Brandon, Rick, Tom and the support staff for all of their hard work on my case. They kept me up do date with the progress or delays. Gave sound advice as how to proceed. Always answered all of my questions until I was comfortable that I understood the answers. They were quick to return any calls and respond to any concerns. There was a time during my case when I truly needed help and they were there for me. I think very highly of the entire team and would recommend them to anyone. Sincerely, David Heintz

Throughout the span of two years, Rick Houghton has helped work with me on my case, doing the best he could to establish a reasonable outcome. Along with that he has also supported my overall well-being and comfort in the process. In that complicated period of my life, I knew that I had reinforcement through Rick. He has helped heal apart of my life that I thought would forever be scarred; I can finally grow. Thank you Rick, I am very grateful and happy that I had the opportunity to work with you.

The staff at Michigan Auto Law were so kind and understanding of my condition and my frustrations. They really took the time to explain the process, share important details, and keep me informed of any changes. Attorney Rick Houghton was amazing! A real honest and down to earth guy, Rick was there for me through my struggles. Just a phone call or e-mail away, for a status update or to explain the process. Even through my concussion and the aftereffects, the whole staff has been patient with me while I recover. The main reason I chose Michigan Auto Law was because of the many great reviews as well as their promptness and efficiency in meeting me while in the hospital, the same day I called! Highly recommend!

If you have been through a tragic accident and our searching for the right Auto Accident Team, look no further! I HIGHLY recommend Michigan Auto Law. After my accident, I wasn't sure what to do. But when I first met the team at Michigan Auto Law, I knew I was in good hands, and they took very good care of me. They took the stress and worry, so I was able to focus on healing, and easily guided me through the process. I wasn't able to do many normal things after my accident. But they know and work with a team of excellent qualified individuals to help smooth out the transition. I honestly couldn't have done it without Michigan Auto Law!! I feel tremendously greatful to have had you by my side every step of the way! Thank you for being apart of my healing journey!!! You are one of the best!!!

I was rear ended by a drunk driver on my way home from work in August 2017. My life changed forever and so did that of my family on that fateful night. Michigan Auto Law stepped in and helped us navigate all the ins and out that comes with being in a car accident. Brandon Hewitt & Rick Houghton stepped in, answered all our questions, and communicated with our insurance company on our behalf. They, along with their staff, Tonya & Lori, met with us several times, answered all our emails, and questions quickly and truthfully. They presented information from several perspectives and then let my husband and I decide what way we wanted to go. When we settled our first party case regarding medical bills, lost wages, medical miles, and replacement services; Brandon and Rick once again stepped up! They negotiated a great deal for me. Then they personally spoke with all my medical providers on my behalf getting all my medical bills covered at a reasonable cost. Lastly, with the third party part of this Court matter coming up later this year, there is no one I trust more to take care of me during this scary process. Brandon, Rick, Lori, and Tonya will continue to take care of myself and my family with dedication, honesty, integrity, and most of all deep concern for my well-being. I recommend them to one and all when faced with an auto accident. Let them handle your case and you will be well taken care of, just like I was.

Brandon Hewitt and Rick Houghton went above and beyond. At the request of my family, they came to my hospital room to meet me for the first time. They kept in touch by phone and email as my case progressed. They gave me simple suggestions for things I could do that allowed them to keep their fees lower and therefore increase my settlement. Ultimately, they were able to give me the only justice I would be able to get. I would highly recommend them to anyone who has been injured by another driver.

Everyone at Michigan Auto Law was wonderfully helpful! I am so grateful for their assistance, and I honestly couldn't have expected a better outcome. I can't believe I considered going through this process without an attorney. They were so helpful every step of the way, and I would have been very confused and stressed without them.

I was hit on my motorcycle by an uninsured motorist and Rick did a tremendous job helping our family through a very difficult time. Not only did he get the maximum award possible, he handled all aspects of the case including hospital bills and insurance claims. Rick went above and beyond what was required and my family and I cannot thank him enough.
