Hicks v. Auto Club Ins Ass'n

In Hicks v. Auto Club Ins Ass'n, 189 Mich App 420, 422-423; 473 NW2d 704 (1991), the Court reversed the trial court's award of attorney fees to an insurer recovering reimbursement from another insurer, stating that while the statute provides that an attorney is entitled to a reasonable fee for "advising and representing a claimant," MCL 500.3148(1); MSA 24.13148(1), the prevailing insurer "did not advise or represent the claimant." Id. at 423.
