Everyone I talked to was very thorough in explaining each aspect of my case. They always took time to answer any questions I had. They were very professional both in person and in all communications, all while remaining friendly and caring about the situation at hand. They also were very accommodating to my busy work schedule. Everything they did was greatly appreciated. 10/10 will use services again-although hopefully never necessary (dog bite case). Would recommend! -Molly Smith

Buckfire Law was there for me when I needed them. I worked with attorney Kimberly Steinberg Goodman who patiently guided me through a complex legal process. I am grateful for the hard work and excellent outcome.

Kimberly and her team at Buckfire did an outstanding job from start to finish. I wish I never would have had this happen to me (dog attack), but I am forever grateful that Buckfire was by my side throughout the whole process. They were prompt, courteous and always available to answer any questions or concerns I had. As a victim, I was especially appreciative of that. There were many unknowns as I navigated life post-attack, but Kimberly kept me in-the-know and I never had a doubt that she was working hard for me. Hopefully you never find yourself searching for a personal injury attorney, but if you do--do not hesitate to call on Kimberly and the team at Buckfire Law. You will not be disappointed.

I would highly recommend Buckfire to anyone! Life happens and they understand that, I couldn't be more thankful for all the hard work these fantastic people put into simply just contacting me not to mention the health insurance companies for me! They made this experience a breath of fresh air!

Questions & Answers

What happens if I was injured in a car accident by a driver with no insurance?

Kristin Kaschalk | Oct 26, 2019

If you were injured in a Michigan car accident by a driver without insurance, you can still receive no-fault insurance benefits in most situations. These benefits are for medical expenses, lost wages, attendant care services, and other important benefits. You may also be able to file a claim for personal injury (pain and suffering) benefits. This depends on whether you or a member of your household has uninsured motorist benefit coverage on your vehicles.

My landlord neglected to inform me that the prior tenant was found DEAD in my unit. She took my paid parking space saying I don't need it if I don't have a car. It took 7 months to get a working dishwasher. What do I do?

Hi Darryl, it sounds like you may want to speak to someone who handles tenant/landlord matters. We're a personal injury law firm, so that's not a case type we handle here. We suggest reaching out to the Michigan State Bar for assistance finding someone who would handle your case type.

My neighbor's dog came into my yard and attacked me and my dog. My dog seems ok, but I'm brusied really badly and there are some puncture wounds. My neighbor says I'm overreacting, but I'm in a lot of pain. Can you help me?

If you were injured, you can file a claim against your neighbor for the dog attack. You can receive pain and suffering compensation and medical expenses. For your dog, you can likely only attempt to recover any veterinarian bills resulting from the incident.

Does every case go to court?

Our legal team fully investigates your case and puts together a settlement demand package to present to the opposing attorney. If they are unwilling to pay a fair settlement amount, we file a lawsuit and press forward to win you the maximum possible comepnsation. However, the majority of cases do not go to court, meaning they do not end up with a trial. They go through the legal process but end up in a settlement before a trial.

I was in a car accident and broke my arm, but I was the passenger. Can I still sue the other driver to cover my medical bills?

Siouxsie A | Feb 27, 2022
Buckfire & Buckfire, P.C. | Feb 27, 2022

Yes. An injured passenger can file a personal injury claim against the driver or drivers that caused the accident. This includes the operator of the vehicle that the passenger was occupying. The injured passenger is also entitled to get no-fault benefits to pay medical expenses and lost wages.

If in a 1 vehicle auto accident as a passenger and the car has ins. And i didnt own a vehicle or live with anyone who does... Who pays my medical portion of the claim? Also, P&S portion?

Nate Jones | Oct 26, 2019

Hi Nakar, Under the recent change in the no-fault insurance statute, an uninsured occupant must file a claim for no-fault insurance benefits with the Michigan Assigned Claims Plan. This includes medical bills. A bodily injury claim, which includes pain and suffering, is made against the driver’s insurance company. A claim can be made against the owner of the vehicle’s insurance company as well, if driver was not the owner. I hope you find this information helpful. If you have more specific questions, feel free to call our law firm for a free consultation. Best of luck! Larry Buckfire

Does anyone know anything about Comparative negligence?

Verainia Nelson | Oct 26, 2019
Buckfire Law (Buckfire & Buckfire, P.C.) | Oct 26, 2019

Hi Verainia, Michigan is a comparative negligence state. This means that a party claiming damages can be assessed a portion of the total negligence (100%) and any award will be reduced by that percentage. For example, if there are two drivers involved in an auto accident case and one files a lawsuit against, a judge or jury can assign each person a percentage of fault. If a party is awarded damages, then the amount of damages will be reduced by that person’s percentage of fault assigned. In the given example, if the jury awards damages at $100,000 but assigns negligence at 35% for the injured party, the net result would be $65,000 in that person’s favor. Hope this answers your question. Feel free to reach out to our firm if we can better assist you in any way. -- Larry Buckfire
