Mecosta, MI Personal Injury Law Firms & Lawyers

You can make a claim against the homeowners insurance policy for payment of medical bills, pain and suffering and any existence of permanent injury. You should contact a personal injury attorney immediately to help you with the situation.

In Michigan a landlord has a statutory duty to provide a habitable premises. Sometimes Michigan courts/judges strain to interpret facts to help landlords and take away valid claims of injured folks and say that the parking lot, or the sidewalk, etc. aren't part of the premises that you are renting or only have to be safe for cars, etc. So you probably have a case of some liability, moreso if you can also show poor construction, but you never know what a Michigan judge will do to your case when the defense files to throw it out. Another "problem" is that you can only collect for injuries that actually happened, not for what could have happened. So if your injuries are a twisted ankle, the value of such an injury would not be very great. Value would, in part, depend on the amount of medical treatment, the diagnosis and prognosis, the cost of treatment, whether there is any permanency, etc.

Not sure what insurance company you are referring to yours or H&R Block If you feel you can PROVE they made the error costing you $1,700 an opinion from a CPA that says they made the uncorrectable error, then you should sue in Small Claims Court.
