Questions
How long will my personal injury case take?
Case duration varies based on injury severity and liability disputes. Simple cases settle in months, while complex litigation may take 1-2 years. We prioritize timely resolution while ensuring fair compensation.
Can I recover compensation if partially at fault?
Michigan's modified comparative fault rule allows recovery if you're 50% or less at fault. Compensation reduces proportionally to your fault percentage for economic damages.
Should I talk to the insurance adjuster directly?
We recommend having our attorneys handle all insurance communications to prevent statements being used against your claim. We protect your interests during the entire negotiation process.

We combine 30+ years of trial experience with 24/7 client availability and a proven track record of multi-million dollar verdicts. Our contingency fee structure ensures no upfront costs.
Do I need a lawyer for no-fault insurance claims?
While not required, our attorneys help maximize no-fault benefits and challenge denials. We ensure complete coverage for medical expenses, lost wages, and rehabilitation costs.
