Establishing Liability After a Car Accident in Minnesota
Sieben Edmunds Miller has a wide range of experience helping car accident victims who have been injured by an uninsured or underinsured motorist. That’s why you should hire a knowledgeable personal injury lawyer. Uninsured and underinsured car accident claims are typically complicated and difficult to understand. Surprisingly, though you’ve been paying premiums, perhaps for years without a claim, even your own insurance company may do its best to minimize the amount they pay you.
Understanding Minnesota’s No-Fault Car Accident Laws
Minnesota is a “no-fault” accident state. The no-fault law means that your own auto insurance policy will cover initial medical expenses or wage losses suffered because of an accident that injured you. Your no-fault benefits may include out-of-pocket expenses, medical expenses, wage losses, replacement services, or funeral expenses. This does not exempt the other driver or entity from their liability for related losses, including pain and suffering, disfigurement, amputation, emotional distress, loss of future income, consortium with a loved one, out-of-pocket expenses, medical expenses, wage losses, replacement services, or funeral expenses that have not been paid.
It’s imperative that you retain a qualified Minnesota car accident lawyer at Sieben Edmunds Miller before you accept or even discuss a settlement with an insurance company. Only in this way can you effectively protect your rights and ensure that you receive the compensation you are lawfully and fairly entitled to receive.
Filing a Timely Car Accident Claim for Maximum Compensation in Minnesota
Our Minnesota car accident lawyers are well-equipped to immediately file a timely claim within the requisite statute of limitations. We may try to negotiate a settlement with the at-fault party’s insurance company. If that fails, we will vigilantly pursue a lawsuit against the person, company, or entity that injured you or your loved one. As your dedicated advocates, we will diligently work for you and are prepared to bring the full breadth of our knowledge, experience, and skills to bear to protect your financial rights.
Why Choose Our Car Accident Law Firm
When Sieben Edmunds Miller is on your side, we’ll carefully review your case to determine who is responsible for the accident. When our lawyers work for you, it means that we will thoroughly investigate the circumstances of the accident. Depending upon the specifics of your case, there may be several parties responsible for compensating you. These parties may include the:

What Should I Do After an Accident in Minnesota?
First, make sure you aren’t in immediate danger. Then, call for emergency assistance and seek medical attention for your injuries. Even if you feel okay after the accident, you should be evaluated by a physician. Sometimes injuries do not make themselves evident until a few days after the accident; this is common with some back and neck injuries. If you’ve been injured in the accident, make a call to a personal injury attorney to discuss your options.
What Is Meant by a “No-Fault” State?
“No-Fault” means that drivers have insurance to cover their own injuries and damage rather than insuring to pay out to the other person. In a no-fault state it does not matter who is at fault because everyone is required to file a claim with their own insurance. In most no-fault states, drivers are required to have personal injury protection coverage as part of their auto insurance policy.
How Long Does it Usually Take to Settle a Car Accident Lawsuit?
A car accident personal injury case can be settled in just a few months, or it can take several years in court. Clients who are able to settle with the insurance company out of court usually see a quicker resolution, but that doesn’t necessarily mean it’s always the best course of option.
