Motor vehicle accidents can be incredibly difficult to deal with. This is particularly true if you have been injured. If you find yourself in this situation, it is important that you understand the insurance requirements and legal options that you have moving forward. In Michigan, all drivers are required to have no-fault auto insurance. This means that regardless of who was at fault in an accident, each party's own insurance company will cover their medical expenses and other related costs.
The minimum amount of liability coverage required by law in Michigan is $50,000 per person for bodily injury or death, $100,000 per accident if multiple people are injured or killed, and $10,000 for property damage caused by the accident. Unfortunately, there are instances where the insurance policy that you have will not cover the damages that you have suffered. In these cases, you may have to take legal action against the responsible party.
If you have been involved in a car accident and suffered injuries as a result, it is crucial to seek legal representation from an experienced Michigan car accident lawyer. They can help guide you through the complex legal process and ensure that your rights are protected while seeking just compensation for your losses and damages.
