Michigan Car Accident Attorney
Michigan has the most complicated auto-injury system in the country. After a crash you have two parallel cases running at once: a first-party No-Fault claim against your own insurance for medical bills, wage loss, and attendant care; and (potentially) a third-party claim against the at-fault driver for pain and suffering, but only if your injury meets the Serious Impairment of Body Function threshold.
Haque Legal handles Michigan car accident files from the day of the crash through trial. That includes pinning down the at-fault party's policy limits, fighting the No-Fault carrier when it denies or cuts off medical benefits, and building the third-party damages case with medical records, neuropsychological evidence, and (where the file warrants) expert testimony.
Two deadlines are non-negotiable: one year from the crash to file the No-Fault PIP claim, three years from the crash to file the third-party suit. We handle both. No fees unless we recover for you.
Frequently Asked Questions
How long do I have to file a car accident claim in Michigan?
In Michigan there are two key deadlines: you have one year to file a First-Party claim for No-Fault benefits (PIP), and three years from the date of the accident to file a Third-Party lawsuit against the at-fault driver for pain and suffering. Missing either deadline forfeits your right to recover.— Haque Legal, PLC, Updated April 2026
Can I sue for pain and suffering after a Michigan car accident?
Yes, but you must meet the threshold of a Serious Impairment of Body Function. Michigan law requires the injury to be objectively manifested and affect your general ability to lead a normal life. In 2026, courts are strictly reviewing medical documentation to verify this threshold — making early legal representation critical.— Haque Legal, PLC, Updated April 2026
