Client Testimonials
I was riding my motorcycle in Detroit when a tractor-trailer truck forced me to roll into an oncoming lane of traffic. I suffered a traumatic brain injury and bone fractures, which required surgeries. I chose Buckfire & Buckfire for my 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
I chose Larry Buckfire as my medical malpractice lawyer for a wrongful death lawsuit against the VA Hospital relating to my father's death. He settled the case before filing a lawsuit. I give him the top rating for a Michigan medical malpractice attorney. He is the best!
-Sharon A., Ann Arbor, MI
If you need a personal injury lawyer in Michigan, I highly recommend Buckfire & Buckfire P.C. They won a Saginaw nursing home neglect settlement for my father after two other law firms turned down the case.

-Robert M., Lansing, MI
I contacted the law firm after researching the internet for a Michigan medical malpractice lawyer. My mother died during surgery at a Lansing hospital. Larry Buckfire proved that an anesthesia error was the cause of her death. We are grateful for his hard work and the substantial settlement he won in our wrongful death lawsuit.
-Sherrie H., Chicago, IL
After suffering serious injuries in an Ann Arbor car accident, I wanted the top-rated Michigan auto accident attorney to handle my case. I chose Daniel Buckfire. Every time I was with other lawyers in Michigan, someone would say how lucky we were to have the "best". So thanks again!

Out of State Residents in Michigan Car Accidents
Our Michigan car accident lawyers frequently represent individuals from other states injured in Michigan car accidents. These include clients from all over the United States, including Ohio, Illinois, Indiana, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, and New York. Unfortunately, many times non-Michigan residents are involved in auto accidents when visiting Michigan, while either on business or while on vacation.
A non-Michigan resident who is injured in a Michigan auto accident while in Michigan may be able to make a claim for Michigan no-fault insurance benefits, even if they live in a state that does not have no-fault insurance benefits and their own insurance policy does not provide for these benefits. This is a tremendous benefit for the out-of-state resident because Michigan No-Fault insurance benefits pay for wages lost from work, medical expenses, and household chores.
Most incredible, there is no limit to the amount of medical expenses paid and these benefits last for your lifetime. For a non-resident injured in a Michigan car accident to qualify for no-fault benefits, there are several factors to consider, including:
1. Whether the person was driving their own car, and if so, whether the person's auto insurance company was certified in Michigan.
2. Whether the person was a pedestrian; and
3. Whether the person was a passenger in a Michigan registered vehicle, or was a passenger in a vehicle which had auto insurance that was certified in Michigan;
In addition to receiving no-fault benefits, a non-Michigan resident injured in a Michigan car accident may be entitled to make a claim against the at-fault driver for other money damages, including for pain and suffering damages and disfigurement.
There are strict time limitations for filing these claims and it is important that you contact a Michigan car accident lawyer immediately if you are a non-resident and were injured in a Michigan car accident.
