Legal Process & Case Handling
Understanding what happens once you contact us and how your claim is handled.
After your consultation, we investigate your claim, gather evidence, deal with insurance companies, and pursue compensation through settlement or litigation if needed.
The timeline varies depending on the complexity of the accident, the severity of injuries, and the willingness of insurers to negotiate—but most cases resolve within several months to a year.
Michigan’s comparative fault laws may still allow you to recover damages, depending on your percentage of fault. We’ll evaluate your case and explain how the law applies to your situation.
Most personal injury cases are resolved through negotiation, but if insurers fail to offer a fair settlement, we are fully prepared to take your case to trial.
We work on a contingency fee basis—meaning you pay no upfront costs. We only get paid when we win or settle your case.
After an Accident: What to Know
Key information for anyone recently involved in an accident or injury.
Ensure your safety, call 911, seek medical attention, document the scene with photos, and contact an attorney before speaking to insurance representatives.
Most personal injury claims must be filed within three years from the date of the accident, but certain exceptions may apply—so it’s important to act quickly.
It’s best to let your attorney handle communications. Insurance adjusters often aim to minimize payouts, and statements made early on can impact your claim.
You may be entitled to damages for medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, emotional distress, and future rehabilitation or care.
We can help you access treatment through medical liens or work with providers who defer billing until your case is resolved.
