A Kent County rollover car accident has left a prominent Michigan business leader dead.  Robert Peacock, 37, who was president of the Michigan Jaycees in 2005, was traveling westbound on 84^th Street when he lost control of his vehicle west of East Paris Avenue.  His vehicle rolled over several times and he was thrown from the vehicle.  He died from injuries he sustained in the crash. 

This sounds like it was a terrible accident and I am very sorry it occurred.  I want to extend my sympathy to this man’s family.

My law firm represents people injured or killed in car accidents.  Even though this man’s family is grieving right now, the best thing they can do is submit a claim for Michigan No Fault insurance.  Through a No Fault survivor loss claim, they can receive a portion of the funeral costs, a portion of Robert Peacock’s lost wages, and payment for all medical expenses incurred because of the accident.  This will likely provide them with significant financial support during this trying time.  They should submit this claim quickly, because the Michigan No Fault Act sets firm deadlines for submitting a claim and the insurance company can deny coverage for claims that are submitted after these deadlines.  An experienced Michigan car accident lawyer can help them make sure all the required documentation is submitted along with their claim.
