Injury Lawyers Frequently Asked Questions

At Nelson Personal Injury, we specialize in helping individuals injured due to someone else’s negligence or wrongdoing. We handle all aspects of your case, including investigating the accident, gathering evidence, negotiating with insurance companies, and representing you in court if necessary. Our primary goal is to secure fair compensation for your medical bills, lost wages, pain, suffering, and other damages.

Contacting us as soon as possible after an accident is essential. Acting quickly allows us to gather evidence while it’s fresh, speak to witnesses, and manage communication with insurance companies on your behalf. Early involvement also ensures you don’t miss any critical deadlines, such as Minnesota’s statute of limitations, which may limit your ability to file a claim.
Our firm works on a contingency fee basis, meaning you won’t pay any upfront fees or hourly charges. Instead, we only collect a fee as a percentage of the compensation we recover for you. If we don’t win your case, you owe us nothing.
We handle a wide variety of personal injury cases, ranging from car accidents, truck and motorcycle crashes, dog bites, and slip-and-fall incidents to other accidents caused by negligence. We also represent families in wrongful death cases when a loved one tragically loses their life due to someone else’s actions.
When coming to your consultation with us, it’s helpful to bring documents related to your accident, including police reports, medical records, photographs of the scene, witness contact information, and any correspondence with insurance companies. These materials help us evaluate your case and determine the best strategy for pursuing your claim.
The statute of limitations for personal injury claims in Minnesota is typically two years from the date of the injury. However, there may be exceptions depending on the unique aspects of your case. We’re here to help ensure your claim is filed on time and according to the law.
When pursuing a personal injury claim, you may recover compensation for economic damages like medical expenses, lost wages, and property damage, as well as non-economic damages like pain, emotional distress, and loss of enjoyment of life. The specific amount of compensation depends on the extent of your injuries and other factors in your case.
While many personal injury cases are resolved through settlements with insurance companies, some cases may require going to court if we cannot reach a fair agreement. We prepare every case as if it will go to trial, so we are ready to fight for you if necessary.
If an insurance company offers you a settlement, we strongly recommend consulting with us before accepting it. Insurance companies often aim to settle for the lowest possible amount, which may not cover all your damages. We will review the offer, negotiate on your behalf, and ensure you receive a fair and just settlement.
At Nelson Personal Injury, we’ve been a trusted name in personal injury law in St. Cloud, MN, for decades. With a family-centered approach and a history of recovering millions of dollars for our clients, we are dedicated to providing compassionate and personalized representation. Our team is committed to advocating for your rights, holding negligent parties accountable, and helping you achieve the best possible outcome.
