Share your story

We'd like to provide you with an opportunity to discuss your accident, injury, and/or recovery with those who have had similar experiences. You can discuss the pros and cons of the insurance policy that covered you after your injury, and contrast that to what it might have been like had you been covered by the Michigan model. We look forward to hearing from you.
