After someone loses their life in a fatal car crash in Michigan, it is imperative that the deceased victim’s surviving family contact a skilled and experienced Michigan wrongful death attorney. Numerous important no-fault benefits are available to the family members of the decedent, including survivor’s loss benefits and more. 

Sadly, most insurance companies fail to be totally honest about available benefits surviving families are able to receive after losing a loved one in an accident. They often do not include burial and funeral expenses, pension compensation, disability benefits, or social security benefits. For this reason, among others, it is important to enlist the help of a personal injury lawyer who will be able to negotiate with the insurance company for you in the event that you have recently lost a loved one in an accident in Michigan.
