PENDING LEGISLATION WILL HURT ACCIDENT SURVIVORS – WE NEED YOUR HELP NOW TO CHANGE IT!
Huge changes are taking place under the proposed No-Fault legislation due to go into effect on July 1st. There is an alternative bill that Dave Christensen helped write that would save the medical providers and facilities that treat accident survivors and TBI (traumatic brain injury) patients who need long-term care. Without this alternate bill being passed, TBI and accident victims who require residential care will be turned out on the streets, as the proposed cuts to funding for these care facilities and providers will force them to reduce care provision and many will have to close.
TIME IS RUNNING OUT
Please act now to help support the victims of traumatic brain injury and auto accident survivors.

At Christensen Law, we have unfortunately had to sue for our clients to receive care far too many times. That’s why Michigan’s new auto insurance law set to take effect on July 1st is so alarming. The new legislation is set to slash payments for long-term rehab, home care and residential programs for car crash victims by 45%, which will result in many providers closing their doors and leaving hundreds of people vulnerable to losing the vital care they so desperately need.
If we act quickly, we can prevent much of what’s about to happen. Democrat-sponsored Senate Bill 314 and House Bill 4486 would leave most of the state’s new auto insurance law in place, but would amend it to provide enough reimbursement to keep providers who care for accident survivors in business. But the bills are languishing in the Senate Committee on Insurance and Banking and the House Committee on Insurance.
