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.

What are Michigan No-Fault Insurance Benefits?
Every driver in the State of Michigan is required to have an automobile insurance policy with no-fault benefits. If you were injured in a Michigan car accident, motorcycle accident, truck accident, bicycle accident, or pedestrian accident, you are most likely entitled to Michigan No Fault insurance benefits, regardless of who was as fault for the accident. Passengers, pedestrians, bicyclists and others are also often entitled to receive these benefits even if they did not have an auto no-fault insurance policy.
Types of Michigan No-Fault Insurance Benefits
There are several different No-Fault Insurance benefits you are entitled to receive after suffering injuries in a Michigan car accident. These No-Fault Benefits include:
Payment of benefits to have an agency or family member provide skilled or unskilled care and supervision to the accident victim during the period of recovery. In catastrophic cases, these benefits can be received for a lifetime.
Payment of lifetime medical expenses, doctor bills, rehabilitation expenses, and prescription expenses for injuries caused or aggravated in a car accident.
Payment of lost wages and income for accident victims who are unable to return to their employment due to injuries suffered in a motor vehicle accident. Payable up to three years after the accident and can be received if a person is "temporarily unemployed" or "actively seeking employment."
Payment for household chores and assistance performed by a family member or another individual. Includes payment for doing laundry, housecleaning, mowing the lawn, and taking out the garbage. Payable for up to three years after the accident.
Payment of benefits, including funeral expenses, lost wages, and others to family members of an individual who dies in a motor vehicle accident.
Payment of services for a nurse case manager to assist the accident victim with medical needs, including coordination of care, after a car accident.
Payment for travel expenses to and from medical appointments, hospital visits, and physical therapy appointments.
Payment of benefits to have an existing home modified or a new home built to accommodate the social needs of a person seriously injured in an accident.
Payment for a van or specially equipped van or vehicle to take the accident victim to and from their medical appointments.
Making Your Claim for Michigan No-Fault Insurance Benefits
You can obtain these insurance benefits benefits by filing a written Application for No-Fault Benefits with the proper no-fault insurance company that has priority for paying your claims. Your own insurance agent, or the adjuster assigned to your claim, should promptly provide it to you.
We also have the Application for No-Fault Benefits available for you on our law firm website that you can download and print for free.
Time Limit for Filing Your Michigan No-Fault Insurance Claim
There is a time limit for filing your Michigan No-Fault Insurance Claim. You must file a written Application for No-Fault Benefits with the proper insurance company within one year of the date of the accident. If you fail to do so, you will not be able to obtain No-Fault Benefits.
Written claims for wage loss benefits, medical expenses, household services, and other no-fault benefits must be sent to the proper insurance company within one year of the date of the expense. If you fail to do so, you will not be able to obtain recovery or reimbursement of the claim or expense.
What If Your No-Fault Insurance Claim is Denied
If your insurance company refuses to pay your no-fault insurance benefits, your only recourse is to file a lawsuit against your insurance company.
If you choose to begin a lawsuit against your insurance company for No-Fault benefits, you must file a lawsuit within one year of the date on which the last unpaid No-Fault benefit was incurred.
If you fail to file your lawsuit within this one year period, you will lose the right to have the benefit or expense paid.
