Client Testimonials

I was riding my bike in Detroit when a tractor-trailer truck pulled into my lane of travel and forced me to roll my bike into an oncoming lane of traffic. I suffered catastrophic injuries, including a traumatic brain injury and numerous bone fractures, which required multiple surgeries. I chose Buckfire & Buckfire for my motorcycle accident case and they settled it for $1,100,000.00. In my opinion, they are the best motorcycle accident lawyers in Michigan.
- Michael J. Smith, Waterford, MI

A friend then suggested that I call attorney Daniel Buckfire about my Detroit, Michigan car accident case. He spoke with me personally and understood the serious nature of my injury and began working on my case immediately. My condition worsened and I have had several surgeries. Mr. Buckfire fought hard to obtain a settlement of $1,400,000.00 for me. I cannot imagine any other attorney going to such great lengths to help a client. I am grateful for his efforts.

Attendant Care Lawsuit Filed For Traumatic Brain Injury Victim - Citizens Insurance

Our Michigan no-fault insurance lawyers filed a lawsuit against Citizens Insurance Company seeking payment of attendant care services.  The suit alleges that our client requires attendant care services due to a traumatic brain injury that he suffered in a 1997 car accident.  The insurance company is paying a family member $10.00 per hour for these services, but this is not a reasonable rate based upon her duties and other rates for services in the area.  The suit seeks to recover the fair attendant care rates that should have been paid in the past and for the higher rates in the future.  

Traumatic brain injury patients often required attendant care services during their recovery after the accident.  These services are necessary for supervision, monitoring, bathing, toileting, dispensing medications, and other needs.  Many brain injury victims required attendant care services for their lifetime.  The no-fault insurance company is obligated to pay these benefits and pay a reasonable rate for the services, even if it is to a family member.


For more information about your rights regarding a Michigan car accident, you should request our book "The Ultimate Michigan Car Accident Handbook," written by Daniel L. Buckfire. The book sells for $14.95 on Amazon but Daniel will send it to you for FREE.
