On July 31, the Michigan Supreme Court issued its decision in McCormick v. Carrier. As expected, the Court overruled the 2004 decision in Kreiner v. Fischer, which had been the seminal case construing the No-Fault Act's serious impairment threshold. Under the new ruling, the standard for "serious impairment of body function" is much less rigid.

This decision will significantly impact how defendants handle no-fault claims.

JOIN US FOR A FREE, INTERACTIVE WEBINAR WHERE OUR NO-FAULT LITIGATION ATTORNEYS WILL DISCUSS:

• How this ruling changes the "serious impairment of body function" threshold of the No-Fault Act,
• The effects that the decision will have on the insurance industry, and
• What you need to know to adjust and defend a no-fault claim in this new climate.

Our presenters will provide practical tips on how the new standard will affect your claims, and attendees of this webinar will leave with key take-aways for successfully handling future no-fault claims.
