Injury Claims Process in Minnesota

How will your personal injury claim progress after you get injured in Minnesota or around Detroit Lakes? The details of your case will affect the procedures to follow as well as the outcome. However, it is possible to make a fairly accurate prediction about what will need to be done throughout your claim.

The average personal injury claim in Minnesota will involve:

  • Collecting evidence at the scene of an accident.
  • Seeking medical attention as soon as possible.
  • Calling an attorney for legal help with the rest of the process.
  • Following any instructions from your lawyer.

Once you get a personal injury lawyer to handle your claim, they can act on your behalf. While you may need to continue to seek medical care and communicate with us on regarding your claim, our lawyers and staff take the burden of handling your claim off of you, so you can focus on your recovery and getting back to your life.

A typical case involves your Maring Williams attorney taking these steps:

  • Calculate your damages to the fullest extent.
  • Create and submit a claim to the correct defendants.
  • Respond to inquiries and challenges.
  • Attempt prelitigation negotiations to settle.
  • Prepare for litigation if settlements do not succeed.
  • Take the case to court for a jury verdict.

It is important to remember that filing a lawsuit does not entirely eliminate the chance of settling your claim. Faced with our willingness to take your claim to court, many insurance companies decide to halt litigation and offer a fair settlement, saving them time and expense. In this way, settlements benefit both parties.
