FAQ
Detroit personal injury questions
How long do I have to file a personal injury lawsuit in Michigan?
In most cases, 3 years from the date of the injury (MCL § 600.5805). Claims against a government agency often have much shorter notice deadlines.
What if I was partly at fault for my injury in Michigan?
Different fault rules apply to different kinds of damages. See the note below. Pure comparative fault for economic damages. For non-economic damages (pain and suffering), you are barred if more than 50% at fault. (MCL § 600.2959)
Is Michigan a no-fault car insurance state?
Michigan is a no-fault state. Your own personal injury protection (PIP) coverage pays your medical bills and some lost wages first, no matter who caused the crash. You can sue the at-fault driver only if your injuries meet the state's threshold.
How much does a personal injury lawyer in Detroit cost?
Most personal injury lawyers work on contingency: they take a percentage of what you recover and nothing if you lose. Percentages, and whether case costs come out before or after the fee, vary by firm, so compare fee agreements in writing.
How are the Detroit lawyers on this page ranked?
By a 100-point score. Half comes from each firm's average position in Google Maps results for "personal injury attorney" and "car accident lawyer" searches in Detroit; half comes from its Google rating, weighted so that a high rating from many reviews beats a perfect rating from a handful. Firms need at least 25 Google reviews, a 4.0+ rating, and a Google listing as a personal injury attorney. We are checking each ranked firm against the state bar. No firm can pay to change its rank.
