Question 1

What should I do after suffering a personal injury?

Accepted Answer

First and foremost, seek medical attention, even if you don’t have obvious injuries. The documentation that results from that initial visit becomes an important piece of your case. It establishes a direct relationship between your injuries and the incident. Our firm has more than 50 years of combined personal injury experience and is ready to use that experience to fight for your compensation.

Question 2

Who can be held liable if I was injured while on someone else’s property?

Accepted Answer

Minnesota property owners have a legal duty to maintain safe conditions on their property. Property owners such as landlords, business owners, homeowners, and even government entities are open to liability for injuries on their property. However, your status as a guest on the property matters significantly in these cases. Our firm has experience in these cases and has secured a settlement of 3.1 million dollars as a result of a premises liability case previously. Let us use our expertise to fight for you.

Question 3

What compensation is available for dog bite injuries?

Accepted Answer

Minnesota law has extremely strict liability for dog bites. Dog owners can be held liable for injuries their dog causes, and the victim does not need to demonstrate the owner’s negligence. We have multiple attorneys who have dog bite case experience, who can get compensation for damages such as medical expenses, future treatment costs, lost wages, pain and suffering, and emotional distress resulting from dog bites. Contact us today.

Question 4

What happens if the driver who hit me was uninsured?

Accepted Answer

Minnesota is a no-fault state, meaning that in the event of an accident, your own personal injury protection applies, no matter who is at fault. However, there is a limit to no-fault accidents. Additionally, Minnesota law requires uninsured motorist coverage for all insurance policies, which can be applied to damages such as lost wages and medical expenses. We know how to deal with insurance adjusters in these cases, as our attorneys have inside knowledge of how insurers handle these claims.

Question 5

Are truck accident cases different from car accident cases?

Accepted Answer

Truck accidents are handled significantly differently from car accidents. Factors such as liability and applicable laws and regulations are much broader and more complex in these cases. Additionally, commercial truck companies have strong legal teams and insurers to protect them from financial liability. Fortunately, our firm has experience with these cases, as we have secured a 9.3 million dollar settlement from a commercial truck crash previously.

Question 6

What is classified as medical malpractice in Minnesota?

Accepted Answer

Under Minnesota law, medical malpractice is defined as any situation in which a healthcare provider’s negligence leads to a failure to uphold a standard of care, resulting in direct patient harm. Our firm has secured more than $1M in settlements from medical malpractice cases, so if you’ve been a victim of surgical errors, misdiagnosis or delayed diagnosis, medication errors, birth injuries, or anesthesia mistakes, we are ready to fight for you!
