Court Rules No-Fault Benefits Time Extended

If your insurance company has failed to pay you No-Fault benefits as a result of a car or truck accident, you should be aware of the new law that may allow you additional time to file a lawsuit against the insurance company for wrongfully withheld medical and other benefits.

While you generally have one year to file a lawsuit to recover No-Fault first-party benefits, the Michigan Court of Appeals recently ruled that an insurance company must formally deny the request for benefits in order for the time to file a lawsuit continues to accrue.
