Got rear ended and the other drivers' insurance company said they won't pay for any damages. Do I have any moves here?

I was in stop and go traffic in Michigan. As I was stopped, the other driver rear ended me and did some moderate to severe damage. Got a police report and the other drivers' info. Now his insurance provider is saying that his coverage or his policy will not cover/pay for any of the repairs. I do have full coverage through All State, but there's a $750 deductible.
Is there anything I can do with this? I know Michigan is a no fault state and maybe someone could shed some light on that for me too. What is the point if someone can ruin your property with their own negligence and just go on about their day while you're stuck paying rental car fees waiting to get your car fixed?
Yes, there is recourse. In fact, you have 3 potential cases under Michigan law. Happy to answer any questions you have, but I would first click on www.michiganautolaw.com and look under the 3 cases icon on the right to learn more about your mini tort - which was raised on October 1st to $1,000, your no fault rights, and a potential claim for injuries.
You absolutely have a case. In Michigan if you get into a motor vehicle incident you have two potential cases. The first is known as a No-fault case for wage loss, medical bills and household services and attendant care. The second is a third party case for pain and suffering. We do these kinds of cases and will give you a free consultation by telephone. Feel free to call us at 313-389-2234.
