There was a tragic story on the radio about an Fatal I-75 Multiple Vehicle Car Accident that happened in Monroe County this morning. According to the Monroe County Sheriff’s Office, a 64-year-old Wyandotte man allegedly lost control of his SUV while driving on I-75 near north Dixie Highway and was broadsided by a motorhome. The wife of the SUV driver was a passenger and died of her injuries. The passengers in the motorhome sought treatment on their own for their injuries. Police are still investigating the accident.

I am very sorry to hear about this tragic accident and offer the family of the deceased passenger my most sincere condolences and best wishes. I hope that the other injured parties have a complete recovery without any permanent deficits.

Our Michigan car accident lawyers advise accident victims of their legal rights. For this type of auto accident in Michigan, any injured parties can submit a claim for Michigan No-Fault insurance benefits.  No-Fault benefits will cover their medical expenses, lost wages, attendant care, replacement services, and other benefits related to injuries suffered in the accident.  The injured parties can claim these benefits even if they did not have a Michigan automobile insurance policy.

Additionally, for this type of auto accident in Michigan, the family members of the deceased woman may be able to make a claim for Survivor Loss Benefits. This can include payment of funeral expenses, lost wages, and loss of other services.

In addition, the injury victims may be able to file a lawsuit against the persons determined to be at fault in auto accident. The insurance company for the driver must still cover any injuries. In this lawsuit, any injured parties and the family of the deceased victim can claim damages and compensation for the injuries suffered in the accident. The insurance company for the negligent driver typically pays a settlement for this type of case.

Also, the family members of the deceased pedestrian may have a claim for a Michigan wrongful death lawsuit against the driver that police determine was negligent and caused this accident. At the very least, the surviving family should hire the best possible lawyer to look into these possibilities.

An experienced Michigan car accident lawyer can assist the victim with this type of claim. Accident victims should not speak with the insurance adjuster for the negligent driver before consulting with an attorney.

A traumatic brain injury victim in a Michigan car accident recieved justice today in a Lenawee County courtoom.  A  jury returned a verdict in a car accident case in favor of the accident vicitm for approximately $2,000,000.00.  This is a substantial verdict in for Lenawee County where jurors are considered conservative when awarding compensation to injury victims.  The accident victim suffered a closed head injury in the accident.

The negligent driver had insurance company with Farm Bureau Insurance Company.  Incredibly, the insurance adjuster offered only $100,000 before the trial to settle this serious injury case.  Well, the jury clearly saw through the smoke and mirror defense and the adjuster grossly underestimated the magnitude of the case, and the tremendous skill of the lawyer for the accident victim.  There will most likely be significant penalties awarded against the Defendant in this case and the insurance company will be probably be required to foot the bill, as it should.

A tragic fatal car  accident in Brighton Township took the lives of three young men and caused serious injuries to a fourth.   The accident occurred on Hacker Road just north of McClements Road early Monday morning.  Police discovered this tragic single car accident and are still investigating.

My sincerest condolences go out to all of the families.  I hope that the surviving passenger has a quick and full recovery.

Under the Michigan No-Fault Insurance laws, the surviving passenger can have all of his medical expenses paid by the designated auto insurance company.  To determine which company is responsible for these and other benefits, it is necessary to go through a checklist to figure out which insurance company has priority for payment.  These benefits include more than medical bills and can be substantial.  There are time requirements for filing these claims so it is important to start on them right away.

There are a variety of other possible claims and lawsuits available to the surviving family members.  These include No-Fault Insurance benefits and possible claims under the Michigan Wrongful Death Statute.

I read a tragic story about a Michigan man, Robert Jackson Sr. of Hazel Park, who suffered fatal injuries recently in a Utah car accident. His son, the driver of his vehicle, suffered serious injuries. Police believe that the driver of a pickup truck cut into their lane of traffic and caused the accident. It is still being investigated.

My thoughts and condolences go out to the family. I hope that the son has a speedy and complete recovery for his injuries. It is hard to imagine what the last week has been like for the family.

I was recently at a conference in Washington DC with a fellow car and truck accident lawyer from Salt Lake City, Utah. He described to me the number of accidents that occurred on many of the winding and curvy roads in Utah and the serious injuries related to those accidents. It seems to be a terrrible problem, especially because any detraction from the roadway can have terrible consequences.

The Michigan family does have legal rights related to this accident. A wrongful death lawsuit can be filed against the other driver and a claim would be made against his insurance company. No-fault insurance claims can also be filed for payment of funeral expenses, survivor loss benefits, medical expenses, wage loss benefits, and other claims even though the accident happened in Utah. There may also be other available claims and remedies available to the family.
