Minnesota Bodily Injury Lawyer
Suffering from a bodily injury sustained in an accident?
In a legal context, bodily injury and personal injury are very similar terms in that they describe a type of injury that a person suffers as the result of a car accident, truck accident, motorcycle accident or other unfortunate situation where an injury may occur. In the event of bodily injury in an accident, victims may enlist the support of a Minnesota personal injury lawyer who can negotiate a settlement with a negligent individual or liable insurance provider, and can also provide strong representation in the event the claim goes to trial.
In the case of auto accidents, Minnesota liability laws clearly state that the basic duty of a motor vehicle driver is to be responsible in maintaining the safety of all passengers, including accident prevention. The first phase of investigation focuses on the driver as authorities search for indicators of negligence. Victims who file a bodily injury claim for car accidents must fit one of the following requirements to comply with tort, including receiving permanent disability or disfigurement, over 60 days of work missed, medical bills exceeding $4,000 or wrongful death To find success in a bodily injury claim, the victim's case must be able to prove that the accused is more than 51% responsible for causing the accident, that the tort threshold has been met, and that the claim has been brought within the statute of limitations.
