Frequently Asked Questions
What is the time limit to file a personal injury lawsuit in Norton Shores Michigan?
In Michigan the statute of limitations for most personal injury claims is three years from the date of the injury. For claims against a government entity the deadline is much shorter often just 120 days. You should speak with a lawyer as soon as possible to avoid missing these deadlines.
How does Michigan no-fault insurance affect my personal injury claim?
Michigan is a no-fault state which means your own insurance pays for your medical bills and lost wages regardless of who caused the accident. You can only sue the other driver if your injury meets a serious impairment threshold such as a permanent injury or death. A lawyer can help you understand if your case qualifies.
What types of compensation can I recover in a Norton Shores personal injury case?
You may recover economic damages like medical expenses and lost wages as well as noneconomic damages for pain and suffering if your injury is severe. Michigan law caps noneconomic damages in some cases. A lawyer can explain what compensation is available for your specific situation.
