In Michigan, the statute of limitations for personal injury claims is three years from the date of a person’s injury or death. Or, in some instances, three years from the date that the plaintiff should have learned about the injury. To uphold your rights and maximize your compensation, you should act promptly as soon as you find out about the injury.
What Compensation Is Available In Personal Injury Claims?
The medical bills that pile up after a catastrophic injury can become nearly impossible to pay on time. It is not uncommon for some survivors to find themselves with medical bills totaling hundreds of thousands of dollars. The victims of personal injuries may be entitled to various forms of compensation, depending on the specifics of their case. The types of damages available in personal injury claims include:
- Medical expenses: The cost of medical treatment, rehabilitation and future medical care related to the injury.
- Lost wages: Income that you fail to earn due to the time you take off during recovery.
- Pain and suffering: Compensation for the damages of physical and emotional suffering caused by the injury.
- Loss of consortium: The impact of the injury on the victim’s relationship with their spouse or family.
- Property damage: The expenses from repairing or replacing personal property damaged in the incident.
- Punitive damages: With extreme negligence or intentional harm, additional compensation may go to punish the wrongdoer.
Unfortunately, most insurance companies do not want to pay what their policyholders deserve. They want to offer as little as possible so they can protect their profits. You deserve to have all the compensation that you need to cover your damages.
