FAQ

I was hurt in a snowmobile crash — does Michigan no-fault apply, and what evidence should I gather on the trail?

No-fault does not typically apply to snowmobiles unless a car was involved. Your recovery usually comes from:

  • The at-fault snowmobile operator,
  • A defective snowmobile or part (product liability), or
  • A dangerous trail condition created by a landowner or trail groomer.

While still at the scene, gather:

  • GPS location, photos of the trail, signage, and visibility;
  • Snowmobile damage and any broken parts;
  • Witness names and phone numbers;
  • Helmet and gear — don’t dispose of anything; defects matter.

These cases require fast action before tracks disappear and conditions change. Our team handles winter-sport injury claims throughout Metro Detroit and across Michigan.
