For third party claims, you must bring your suit within a certain period of time or it will be forever barred. A claim against the negligent driver must be brought within 3 years after the Michigan truck accident. There are exceptions to this for minors, military personnel, mentally incapacitated individuals, and survivors of individuals killed in a truck accident.
In regard to a first party claim, an application for benefits must be filed with the insurance company within 1 year of the accident. You also have 1 year to make sure than an expense for a first party benefit is paid or the claim will be barred by law.
Therefore, it is important to contact our office immediately to ensure your claim is filed in a timely manner.
