For more than 40 years, the attorneys at Nelson Personal Injury have been fighting for the rights of our clients. We have taken on the large insurance companies and have recovered millions of dollars in compensation for accident victims.
Everyone who owns a vehicle in Minnesota is required to carry no-fault insurance. No-fault insurance is required to provide a minimum of $20,000 in medical coverage for your car accident related medical treatment. Sometimes, your no-fault insurance company will deny paying for your medical bills for any number of reasons. In that instance, your personal injury lawyer will have to try to force the no-fault insurance company to pay your bills through a no-fault arbitration. Once your no-fault medical benefits have been exhausted, the next priority to pay for your medical bills is your health insurance. Your health insurance will have to pay for any car accident related bills, but will then seek reimbursement from any settlement you receive from the at-fault driver’s insurance company.
Yes, Nelson Personal Injury offers free consultations for all potential personal injury and accident claims. You will not be charged anything to have your case reviewed by one of our experienced personal injury lawyers. If you hire Nelson Personal Injury, you also do not pay by the hour or have to pay an upfront retainer. Nelson Personal Injury works on a contingency fee, and if there is no recovery on your behalf, there are no attorney’s fees.
A contingency fee is a fee paid to a lawyer only if a recovery is obtained on behalf of the client. If you are represented by one of the attorneys at Nelson Personal Injury, you will never have to pay a fee unless a recovery or settlement is obtained on your behalf. Insurance companies have highly paid attorneys on their side at all times. Hiring a lawyer on a contingency fee allows you to hire an experienced personal injury lawyer to handle your case, without having to pay anything up front, or receiving monthly bills. This levels the playing field against the insurance company and their army of lawyers.
If your vehicle has been damaged or destroyed in an accident, you may seek reimbursement through your own insurance company if you carry collision coverage. Any reimbursement through your own insurance company may be subject to a deductible. However, if another party was at fault for causing the accident, your insurance company may seek to collect your deductible from the at fault driver’s insurance company, and if successful, you will be reimbursed for your deductible. If you did not carry collision coverage, you will have to go through the at fault driver’s insurance company to seek reimbursement for the damage to your car, or the fair market value of the vehicle, if totaled.
One of the most common questions we receive is how much is my case worth? Any lawyer who tells you what your case is worth is usually not being honest. An experienced and honest personal injury lawyer will tell you that how much your case is worth depends on a number of factors that typically are not known at that time. These factors include, but are not limited to, the following: who was at fault for the accident, the nature and extent of the accident, the type and severity of injuries sustained in the accident, how much you have incurred in medical expenses, how much wage loss you have, whether your doctor is willing to state that your injuries are permanent, whether you are going to need future medical care, whether your injuries will affect your ability to work in the future, the amount of liability and/or uninsured or underinsured motorist coverage available. Only once these factors are known can a personal injury attorney give you an accurate assessment of the range of value of your case.
If you have been injured in a car accident in Minnesota, you may have two, and sometimes three potential insurance claims. These include no-fault claims, personal injury claims and “underinsured” or “uninsured” motorist claims, depending on the circumstances.
