Re: Answer to Complaint

In Michigan, if certain defenses are not raised in the answer they are waived. If you are being sued, you should talk to an attorney before filing an answer, particularly if the claim is for a substantial amount of money. I offer free consultations if you would like to discuss your situation in further detail. Good luck.
