Northern Michigan Car & Auto Accident Lawyers
Hurt in a crash Up North?
After a serious wreck, insurers count on you not knowing the rules — and Michigan’s no-fault rules are the ones most lawyers get wrong. We’re national-caliber trial attorneys who came home to Northern Michigan: we know the law cold, we move fast to lock down the evidence, and we answer the phone from an office right here in Traverse City.
Why It Matters Who You Call
National firepower. A local phone number.
A serious collision is only the first thing you’re up against. The other side — an insurer, a trucking company, its investigators — is often working the scene before you’re out of the hospital. What happens in the first days can decide the case.
We are the exception to the billboard firms. Our attorneys have tried and won cases across the country, and we handle Northern Michigan matters from an office in Traverse City. Whatever hit you, there’s a team here that has done this work before.
How We Help
Choose the crash closest to yours.
Motorcycle and truck claims don’t work like ordinary car claims — different coverage, different deadlines, different evidence that disappears fast. Start with the area that fits your situation.
Motorcycle Accidents
Michigan’s no-fault rules treat riders differently than drivers — and one wrong move can quietly cost you the medical coverage you’re counting on. We know the rider-specific law that trips up general practitioners, and we fight the “they chose to ride” bias head-on.
Motorcycle AccidentsTruck & Commercial Vehicle Accidents
A loaded semi can weigh twenty times what your car weighs, and in Michigan it can legally weigh more than in any other state. The carrier’s investigators work fast, and the federal records that prove what happened can be destroyed within months. We move on day one.

We Know Michigan No-Fault Cold
The PIP priority ladder, the coverage that gets capped by someone else’s policy, the excess damages you can still recover — these are the rules most lawyers get wrong. Miss one and money that should be yours disappears quietly.

No billboards, no boxing gloves. We prepare every case as if it will go to trial — locking down evidence early and building the record needed to win, not to settle cheaply.
