The laws that your injury claim will abide by are Michigan, since the accident occured in Michigan. Michigan is a no-fault state and potentially has a threshold that you must pierce before you can pursue a bodily injury claim. *The purpose of PIP/No Fault coverage is to reduce the amount of frivolous lawsuits. If your injuries are basically soft tissue in nature, and there is no long-term impact on your life, you may not meet the qualifications to pursue a bodily injury claim. However, you would regardless of fault, meet the qualifications to pursue a No Fault/PIP claim - which pays for medical bills, wage loss, etc... related to your accident. Contact your insurance company to discuss further. |

I am from Michigan and have resided in Indiana for the last 6 yrs. and I know Michigan road laws, even though both drivers reside in Indiana, you are bound by the laws in the state the accident occurred. Did the other driver receive a ticket stating this;''Failure to stop in a assured clear distance resulting in accident''? The other driver should have been ticketed for at least that. And YES, you definitely have a case for injury, keep every document that you get pertaining to your injuries and there are countless lawyers that will take your case with no money up front till you win your case. |

First of all, legal suites should be your last option. It's expensive and time consuming.
Was the driver insured? If so, their company will want to settle for the injuries.
Contact your insurance company, they will help you get the ball rolling. |
