Michigan Car Accident Lawyers

What should I do after a car accident?

Despite the shock, confusion, and stress that immediately follows a car accident, it’s important to remain calm and stay at the scene while you wait for the police to arrive. You should also do the following:

• Document what happened
  This includes obtaining information from witnesses, acquiring a police report of the accident, and taking photos of the accident scene, damages to vehicles, as well as any injuries.
• Seek medical treatment
  Promptly see a doctor after an accident for a medical evaluation and follow through on any prescribed treatment for your injuries. Note that a person may have suffered injuries while not experiencing pain due to the adrenaline released after an accident.
• Contact a Michigan Auto Attorney
  To make sure all of the steps are handled correctly and to help you earn every dollar you deserve, it’s crucial that you get a legal team on your side who fully understands Michigan law. Kajy Law specializes in Michigan auto law and will guide you through the remaining steps.
• Contact your Michigan insurance provider
  You only have a limited amount of time to report an accident to receive Michigan insurance benefits. Your insurance provider will want to know the location, injuries, damages, names of those involved, witnesses, and the investigating police officer’s name and contact information. However, be sure to follow your attorney’s guidance in this matter, as some insurance companies will want you to say things that release them of liability.
• Keep good records
  These records will be important to get proper compensation from your injuries and losses. They include any bills, expenses, or income loss, medical records of treatment, as well as any physical or mental trauma that resulted from the accident and how it affected you.

Along with taking these steps, it’s important not to do certain things to avoid causing problems, complications, and stress. Find out what they are here >>

Who pays after a car accident with Michigan no fault laws?

To help accident victims receive medical treatment without having to worry about who should pay, Michigan Law requires each person’s own insurance company to pay for the medical bills related to an auto accident. However, there are certain things that no-fault insurance doesn’t cover.

What do I do if I am injured in a car accident? Who Pays?

Suddenly, your day changed from going to or from work, school or running errands. Now, you have to figure out the full extent of the injuries you suffered, how to treat them, and what else you need to do. Take these three steps after a car accident injury:

• Get the medical help you need
  Your health is the most important thing to focus on–not who is at fault or who will pay the medical bills. That’s why you and everyone involved should immediately receive medical attention and treatment for any and all injuries after an accident, even if you don’t yet feel sore or if you feel that your injuries aren’t severe.
• Contact your Michigan auto insurance company and apply for no-fault insurance benefits
  Michigan is a no-fault state. That means your own auto insurance is required to pay your medical bills from the car accident. Letting your insurance company know that you were involved in an accident is required in order for them to pay for your medical bills. However, first contact Kajy Law to help you avoid saying things that will relinquish their responsibility to pay.
• Get legal help
  Even though you may have been paying for auto insurance coverage for years or even decades, insurance companies are known to deny coverage or stop it prematurely in order to save money. Get Michigan legal help in order to get the care you need, your bills paid, and the compensation you deserve.

What damages can I recover after a Michigan Car Accident?

Michigan no-fault laws can be confusing for auto accident victims. While this is not an exhaustive list, these are some of the damages Michigan Law allows a victim to recover after an accident:

• Past and future medical expenses
  Medical expenses can be recovered from the accident which can include hospital bills and rehabilitation expenses. However, your accident may have been more severe and thus required specialized treatment or therapies. These damages can also be recovered, along with any medical care that may be ongoing into the foreseeable future or beyond.
• Past and future lost wages
  Medical appointments, not being able to work from accident-related injuries, or having reduced work may have left you with less money than if these events had not taken place.
  These lost wages can be recovered after your accident, along with an estimate of future losses that you are projected to suffer as a result of the accident.
• Non-economic loss wages
  Some losses are not easily calculated like medical bills are. These intangible losses may include the pain and suffering endured, the loss of enjoyment of life, disabilities, or other permanent results from the accident.
