Your two claims after a Bloomfield Hills crash
No-fault PIP benefits from your own auto insurance generally pay medical bills, a portion of lost wages and household help, no matter who caused the crash. Learn what PIP covers.
A claim against the at-fault driver can cover pain and suffering, if your injury meets Michigan’s serious impairment threshold, plus medical bills and wage loss beyond what no-fault pays. Learn about the threshold. If the other driver had little or no insurance, your own uninsured or underinsured coverage may help. Policy limits explained.
Medical care and records
Get medical care promptly after any Bloomfield Hills crash, even if you feel fine, and keep every record and bill. Gaps in treatment are one of the most common ways insurers try to reduce a claim.

Frequently asked questions
Do you meet clients at your Bloomfield Hills office?
Yes. Our office is at 2525 S. Telegraph Road in Bloomfield Hills. If you can’t come in because of your injuries, we can talk by phone or arrange another way to meet.
I was hurt in a crash in Bloomfield Township, not the city of Bloomfield Hills. Can you help?
Absolutely. We represent people injured anywhere in Bloomfield Township, the City of Bloomfield Hills, Birmingham and the surrounding communities.
How much does it cost to hire a Bloomfield Hills car accident lawyer?
Nothing up front. We handle car accident cases on a contingency fee, which means our fee comes out of the money we recover. If we don’t recover anything, you don’t owe us a fee.
How long do I have to file a claim?
You generally must give your auto insurer written notice of a no-fault claim within one year of the crash, and file a lawsuit against the at-fault driver within three years. Some deadlines are shorter, so call early.
