A 27-year-old Twin Lake woman is in critical condition with severe injuries after an Oceana County Drunk Driving Accident on Sunday, May 24th. According to police, the accident happened on South 116th Street in Grant Township when a car driven by Jon Anderson, of Twin Lakes, crossed the center line of the road and struck a tree on the passenger side of the vehicle. Jennifer Cox, the Twin Lake woman, had to be airlifted top Spectrum Hospital in Grand Rapids for her serious injuries. One other passenger, James Shank, was also injured.

I am very sorry hear that this accident happened and I hope that all the injured people are able to recover completely from their injuries.
Michigan car accident victims have a number of legal rights. For this type of accident, the injured passngers can submit a claim for Michigan No-Fault insurance benefits. No-Fault benefits will cover their medical expenses, lost wages, attendant care, replacement services, and other benefits related to injuries suffered in the accident. The injured passengers can claim these benefits even if they did not have an automobile insurance policy.
In addition, the injured passengers may be able to file a lawsuit against the person driving the car. In this lawsuit, they can claim damages and compensation for the injuries suffered in the accident. The insurance company for the negligent driver typically pays a settlement for this type of case. Another possible claim would be a potential Michigan dram shop case against the seller or furnisher of the alcohol before the accident.
An experienced Michigan car accident lawyer can assist the victim with this type of claim. Accident victims should not speak with the insurance adjuster for the negligent driver before consulting with an attorney.
