How a Milford Township crash claim usually runs
- The crash report. Crashes in Milford Township are generally reported by the Milford Police Department. Get the report number at the scene or by calling the agency, and ask how it sells copies: many agencies use the State Police Traffic Crash Purchasing System, and many Oakland County departments use the county’s CLEMIS portal.
- Treatment. Tell every provider the injury came from a car crash, so bills go to the no-fault insurer. See all metro Detroit trauma centers.
- Your no-fault claim. It goes to your own auto insurer (or a relative’s you live with). See what no-fault pays.
- If a lawsuit is needed. Larger claims and most suits against at-fault drivers go to the 6th Circuit Court, 1200 N. Telegraph Rd., Pontiac. Where a case is actually filed depends on the facts, including where the crash happened and where the parties live or do business.
