PERSONAL INJURY LAWYERS
A personal injury lawyer represents people injured in an accident. This includes car accidents, defective product injuries, and dog bites. Also, slip and fall accidents, medical malpractice, gun accidents, etc. Attorneys who practice personal injury law focus their practice on one of two things: Some represent insurance companies. Others represent injury victims to help them get compensation. Our best MN personal injury lawyers only represent the people who have been injured in an accident. In other words, we do not represent insurance companies to defend against compensation claims.
THE BEST PERSONAL INJURY LAWYERS ARE EXPERIENCED
Personal injury law in Minnesota is complicated and requires specialized knowledge. Unfortunately, some lawyers occasionally take injury cases even though personal injury law is not their primary focus. Not surprisingly, they may not have the specialized knowledge required. Meanwhile, the insurance company only hires defense attorneys with experience and specialized knowledge about injury cases. Therefore, make sure the lawyer you choose has experience and knowledge of MN personal injury law. That is how your interests will be properly represented.
However, it is also important to work with a law firm that does not take on too many cases. With those firms, you can get lost in their “inventory.” Some of the larger law firms with big advertising campaigns process so many cases they cannot know who you really are. At our firm, you will meet with a top personal injury lawyer from the beginning. You will always be able to get your personal injury lawyer on the phone or have us call you back within 24 hours. Your case will be important to us.
Many of the best personal injury lawyers in MN belong to the Minnesota Association for Justice. The Rochlin Law Firm has supported this organization for many years. Pam Rochlin served on the Board of Governors for 10 years, and still contributes by writing articles or speaking at seminars when asked. The top injury lawyers in MN belong to the Minnesota Association for Justice for a number of reasons. For example, educational opportunities and sharing resources.
TYPICAL ISSUES FOR A MINNESOTA PERSONAL INJURY LAWYER
There are a number of issues that come up in MN accident cases requiring the specialized knowledge of a personal injury attorney. For example, there are different statutes of limitation for different types of personal injury cases. Most car accident personal injury cases in MN have a six-year statute of limitations. However if there is a death involved, the statute of limitations is three years. Many slip and fall personal injury cases have a six-year statute of limitations, but injuries on property can also have a two-year statute of limitations.
An equally important requirement is having a personal injury lawyer who understands the medical issues involved in your case. For example, one of the most common defenses our personal injury attorneys see is the insurance company claim that your injury was not caused by the accident because you had a preexisting condition. That is the type of issue that comes up every day for an experienced personal injury lawyer and we know how to deal with it. You do not want someone facing that issue for the first time on your case.
The primary focus of our personal injury attorneys is to make sure our clients are fully and fairly compensated. This includes medical bills, lost wages, future medical bills and pain and suffering.
