What Money is Owed to You?
When another person causes you to suffer an injury, it is only right that they pay for your damages and losses. The purpose of a personal injury claim is to demand the money that will help you recover and, hopefully, get back to how you were before the accident ever happened. At Maring Williams Law Office, we can investigate your accident and injuries to determine the right amount of compensation that should be paid to you. We don’t want to leave even a dollar unclaimed if it should rightfully be yours.
The money owed to you can help pay for:
- Past and future medical costs
- Past and future lost wages
- Pain and suffering
- Permanent disability complications
- Reduced enjoyment of life
- And more
Montana Statute of Limitations
In Montana, you, generally, have three years after an accident to file an injury claim against the party that hurt you. This is known as a three-year statute of limitations. When the statute expires, you won’t be able to file a claim except in extremely rare circumstances that you shouldn’t rely on. It is always best to get a personal injury claim started as soon as possible, while the details of the accident are still the freshest in your mind.

Great Falls Personal Injury FAQ
Can I file a claim if I partly caused the accident?
Yes, you don’t lose the right to file a personal injury claim just because you might have contributed to the cause of the accident. Montana uses a comparative negligence rule that allows you to file a claim as long as you aren’t more liable than the defendant. Any compensation that you can collect will be reduced by your liability percentage, though.
Do I have to go to court in my personal injury case?
A personal injury claim will be filed in court for it to officially begin. You might not have to go to court for a resolution, though. Many cases will settle before trial. Although, there is no way to guarantee that your case will settle, so it is important to work with a legal team that knows how to prepare for litigation, just in case.
Do I need a lawyer for my personal injury claim?
You do not legally require a personal injury attorney to file a claim. However, it is highly advised that you hire one, so you aren’t pushed around by the defendant and their attorney. If you were badly injured, have expenses losses, or just don’t know much about Montana’s liability laws, then you should at least talk to our Great Falls personal injury lawyers about your case.
