Personal Injury Attorneys In Minnesota

At Bird, Jacobsen & Stevens, we handle almost all personal injury matters. Personal injury cases arise when someone is injured as a result of the negligence of someone else. We have extensive experience in handling personal injury cases, such as motor vehicle accidents, bicycle accidents, bus accidents, constructions accidents, dog bite accidents, drunken driving accidents, medical malpractice, motorcycle accidents, pedestrian accidents, products liability, semi-truck accidents, slip & fall accidents and finally, wrongful death. Bird, Jacobsen & Stevens has settled, as well as tried to a jury, hundreds of cases, achieving verdicts and settlements from modest amounts to well over a million dollars.

If you feel you have been injured as a result of someone else, contact the Minnesota personal injury attorneys at Bird, Jacobsen & Stevens so that we can advise you of your rights. We offer a free initial consultation and generally take all personal injury cases on a contingent fee basis. In short, our fee is a percentage of the recovery that we achieve on your behalf, and you owe us nothing unless we recover on your behalf. It is important to contact us early as there are strict statutes of limitations relating to each type of case.

One of the more common personal injury matters that our firm handles is motor vehicle accidents. As we all know, motor vehicle accidents occur thousands of times per day throughout the United States. Many of these accidents have devastating effects on those injured, as well as their families. In Minnesota, we have a no-fault statute that requires your own insurance company to pay the first $20,000 of medical bills, as well as $20,000 in wage loss. No-fault pays regardless of who is at fault for the accident. However, if you are in an accident caused by someone else, you still have the right to pursue a claim against the other party providing that you meet one of the four thresholds; (1) if your medical bills are in excess of $4,000, (2) if you have a permanent injury, (3) if you have permanent disfigurement and scarring or, (4) are disabled for more than 60 days. If you were involved in a serious accident, please contact the car accident attorneys at our firm so that we can ensure that you receive what you are entitled to.

It is critical that you contact us shortly after the accident so that we are able to secure witnesses and address other important issues. If you have been injured in a motor vehicle accident, call today for a free consultation with one of our attorneys.
