Grand Rapids Car Accident
I saw on the news this morning that 3 people were injured in a Grand Rapids Car Accident last night. According to the Kent County Sheriff’s Department, in the first accident, two teenagers allegedly ran a stop sign, at Wabasis and 14 Mile Road, and collided with a car driven by a Sparta woman. The Sparta woman was taken to Spectrum Butterworth with serious but non-life threatening injuries. The teens took themselves ot the hospital with minor injuries. Police are still investigating this accident.
I am very sorry to hear about this tragic accident. I wish the injured woman a full and complete recovery and hope that she suffers no permanent harm.
Our Michigan car accident lawyers advise accident victims of their legal rights. For this type of auto accident in Michigan, the injured woman can submit a claim for Michigan No-Fault insurance benefits. No-Fault benefits will cover her medical expenses, lost wages, attendant care, replacement services, and other benefits related to injuries suffered in the accident. The injured parties can claim these benefits even if they did not have a Michigan automobile insurance policy.
In addition, the injury victims may be able to file a lawsuit against the persons determined to be at fault in the auto accident. The insurance company for the driver must still cover any injuries. In this lawsuit, the injured woman can claim damages and compensation for the injuries suffered in the accident. The insurance company for the negligent driver typically pays a settlement for this type of case.
An experienced Michigan car accident lawyer can assist the victim with this type of claim. Accident victims should not speak with the insurance adjuster for the negligent driver before consulting with an attorney.
