Lansing Car Accident Lawyers
A Lansing car accident has resulted in the death of a 67-year old man. The accident occurred on December 6, 2008 at the intersection of Pennsylvania and Saginaw when one of the three vehicles involved ran a red light. The man was taken to Sparrow Hospital, where he passed away on December 7, 2008. Police are still investigating which car ran the red light.
This is a very tragic accident, and I am very sorry that it occurred. My sympathies go out to the family of this man.
Even though this man’s family is grieving right now, I would strongly encourage them to submit this claim to their Michigan No Fault insurance company as quickly as possible. The reason for this is because insurance companies and the No Fault Act set strict deadlines for submitting a claim and insurance companies will deny all or part of the coverage if people miss the deadlines.
A No Fault survivor loss claim will provide some assistance to the family as they cope with this man’s death. Survivor loss benefits will pay a portion of the funeral bill and will provide payments for loss of household services and loss of financial support.
The family may also be able to file a lawsuit against the driver who ran the red light. If it is determined that their decedent was free of fault and another driver was negligent, they could sue for damages not compensated by No Fault insurance. A lawyer could evaluate their case and help them decide if they can sue, and a lawyer could also help file their No Fault claim.
