Testimonials

Hiring Buckfire & Buckfire P.C. was the best decision I could have made for my Michigan motorcycle accident case.
Michael Smith
Waterford, MI

I have had several brain injury patients represented by attorney Daniel Buckfire and have had the occasion to meet with him... Daniel is the attorney that brain injured patients should turn to for the best possible legal representation.

When I call their office, I speak to the personal injury lawyer handling the case, not a paralegal or law clerk. This alone clearly separates them from 90% of other law firms handling injury cases.

In addition, an injured person can file a claim against the negligent driver and his insurance company for pain and suffering, loss of enjoyment of life, disability, and excess wage loss. These insurance claims are often significant.

Statute of Limitations

The statute of limitations for Michigan car and automobile negligence cases varies from state to state. In Michigan, you must file a lawsuit within three years of the date of the accident. This time frame is different for uninsured motorists cases and is typically much shorter. Individuals injured in an auto accident should contact the Michigan car accident firm of Buckfire & Buckfire, P.C. immediately.
