How Does The ‘No Fault’ Insurance Law In Minnesota Affect My Ability To File A Personal Injury Lawsuit After A Car Accident?
Minnesota is a no-fault state. Your own insurance pays medical bills through Personal Injury Protection coverage. However, you can sue the at-fault driver if injuries meet certain thresholds. You can file a lawsuit for permanent injury, disfigurement, disability or death. You can also sue if medical bills exceed $4,000. Serious injuries like broken bones, traumatic brain injury and spinal damage typically qualify. Our car accident lawyers can evaluate whether your case qualifies for a lawsuit beyond no-fault benefits.
The Minnesota statute of limitations for personal injury cases is six years for most cases. However, waiting hurts your case, so it’s important to act quickly.
What Is My Personal Injury Case Worth, And How Is The Amount Of Compensation Calculated?
Medical bills and treatment costs form the foundation. Lost wages matter when injuries prevent work. Pain and suffering address your trauma. Permanent disability increases value significantly. Insurance policy limits affect maximum recovery. Your own actions and any shared fault reduce compensation under Minnesota law. Our team fights to maximize every element through negotiation or trial.
