Bicyclist Sues Geico Insurance For No-Fault Insurance Claim

Posted on June 28th 2011

Our Michigan car accident lawyers recently filed a Michigan No-Fault insurance lawsuit for a client in the Wayne County Circuit Court against Geico Insurance Company. Our client was riding her bicycle on the side of the road (gravel portion) and was struck by a car. Geico was the insurance company required to pay for the client’s Michigan No-Fault benefits.

The bicyclist suffered knee injuries including a ACL and MCL tears, two fractures in hip, three broken teeth, concussion with loss of consciousness for 10 minutes, and migraine headaches. The client had multiple abrasions with scarring on right leg, left forearm, upper arm, knee, calf, and back. 

Geico Insurance has denied payment for many of the insurance benefits owed as a result of the bicycle accident. The lawsuit seeks payment of those benefits along with penalty interest and attorney’s fees. No trial date has been set by the court.

No Fault Insurance Settlement Against State Farm

Posted on June 21st 2011

Our Michigan car accident lawyers settled a no fault insurance lawsuit against State Farm Insurance. Our client suffered a herniated disc and neurological injuries in a car accident in 2009. The insurance company was paying her wage loss claims but refused to pay household service benefits. We filed a lawsuit in the Wayne County Circuit Court seeking payment of back benefits. The case was litigated and the insurance company agreed to settle the case for $65,000 at a court ordered mediation.

Replacement service benefits are payments for services performed around your home that you used to do but cannot do because of injuries from a car accident. You can receive up to $20 a day ($600/month) for these services during your recovery. You are entitled these benefits for up to the first three years after the date of the accident if you are unable to perfrom the services yourself.

Our own book, written by Michigan car accident lawyer Daniel L. Buckfire, “The Ultimate Michigan Car Accident Handbook,”  has been called the best book ever written for persons injured in Michigan car accidents. It answers all of your questions about  your legal rights against negligent drivers as well as your available benefits under the Michigan No-Fault Law. We’ll send it to you for FREE!
