Why Do I Need a Howell Car Accident Lawyer?
If you’re a victim of a vehicle crash that results in an injury in the area, you’ll need the help of a Howell car accident lawyer. An experienced attorney, like the ones at Michigan Auto Law, can protect your legal rights to collect No-Fault wage loss and PIP benefits, and help ensure that your medical bills are paid under Michigan’s auto No-Fault insurance law. Unfortunately, MIchigan’s current auto laws can become a maze of confusion, if you don’t have a knowledgeable legal team on your side.
For example, your insurance company can require you to provide “notice” if you are injured in a hit and run or by an uninsured driver. (This is just one of many aspects of insurance coverage that consumers may not understand.) Insurance policies can have language written into their contracts that requires a 30 day notice, in order to recover uninsured motorist protection and coverage. This also may also apply if you are injured in a hit and run crash. (These types of crashes may be more common than you think with an estimated 20% of Michigan drivers driving uninsured.) If you fail to comply within the “notice” requirement in your “uninsured motorist” policy, your policy can legally be voided, so you lose the ability to recover compensation for injuries and other losses. In the best case, this leaves you with nothing. In the worst case, you end up with expensive medical bills and no insurance for future medical care.
An experienced Howell car accident lawyer can help protect you from these unexpected traps that have been set by many insurance companies. In another example, some auto insurance company claims adjusters try to persuade victims into “settling” their personal injury claims for significantly less than they’re worth. These same claim adjusters may also try to coerce you into forfeiting future legal rights to No-Fault benefits and potential pain and suffering compensation.
Our Howell car accident lawyers will work hard to protect you, helping you get through the very challenging time after a vehicle crash resulting in a personal injury. We’re here to make you get the compensation you are entitled to, from both your own insurance company and the insurance company of the careless driver. It’s very important to schedule your free consultation with an experienced attorney after any crash in which you or a loved one are injured.

How long does it take to get a settlement? That’s a tough question to answer, since each case is completely unique.
