Do I Need A Lawyer For A Car Accident In St. Clair Shores?

If you are injured in a car accident in St. Clair Shores, MI, you are not required to hire a lawyer but it is in your best interest. An experienced car accident attorney can help protect your legal rights to collect Michigan No-Fault wage loss, PIP benefits and get your medical bills paid.

It’s very unfortunate, but Michigan’s auto law is complex and difficult to understand, which could cause you to lose out on financial compensation that you deserve, if you don’t have an experienced legal team at your side. 

In just one example, have you heard about the requirement to provide a 30-day “notice” to your insurance provider when you’re injured in a hit and run or by an uninsured driver? Currently, it’s completely legal for insurance companies to have contract language in their policies that requires a 30-day notice in order for you to recover uninsured motorist protection (which you’ve paid for with your premium) when you’ve been injured in a hit and run crash or a crash with an uninsured motorist. Unfortunately, these types of scenarios are very common with approximately 20% of Michigan drivers estimated to be driving uninsured. If you miss this clause in your policy and fail to comply with this “notice” requirement in your own “uninsured motorist” policy, your policy may be voided so that you lose the right to recover any compensation for injuries and losses. Your insurance company has the right to leave you with nothing – or worse yet, expensive medical bills that you will have to pay out of pocket, with no insurance protection for potentially necessary medical care and treatment in the future. The worst thing about this? You most likely don’t even know about some of these clauses in your insurance policy. 

An experienced St. Clair Shores car accident lawyer from Michigan Auto Law will protect you from these and other common missteps. We’ve also discovered that auto insurance companies and their claims adjusters have been trying to trick some victims, who are most likely already under extreme financial pressure after an injury from a motor vehicle crash, into “settling” their injury claims for significantly less than those claims are actually worth. They sometimes also ask personal injury victims to sign away future legal rights to No-Fault benefits, along with related pain and suffering compensation.

Our St. Clair Shores car accident lawyers are here to protect your rights to financial compensation after a motor vehicle crash where you or a loved one suffered a personal injury. We make sure you get everything you are entitled to after a crash, from your own insurance company and from the insurance company for the other driver. Remember, it’s never too soon to call for a free consultation with an experienced attorney after a motor vehicle crash in which anyone has suffered injuries.

How long does a settlement take after a crash?

How long will it take to get a settlement after a motor vehicle crash? Every case is completely unique in its circumstances, so that’s very difficult to predict. In general, contributors to the case timeline include: specific injuries, prognosis, and current and potential future medical needs; whether the victim is partially or fully disabled; whether injuries have led to an impairment that affects the ability to live a normal life; whether injuries will require “excess” coverage for medical bills and lost wages; the relevant experience, settlement track record and reputation of the victim’s attorney; the at-fault driver’s auto insurance company, the claims adjuster, the defense attorney and any applicable liability limits. Note that attorneys who are known to go to trial can often get larger settlements, much faster.
