Commercial Vehicle​ Attorney for Minneapolis, MN

A typical commercial vehicle accident injury claim involves multiple insurers and multiple claims. We can help you understand the process and navigate the legal and coverage issues. We will assist you in obtaining payment of your property damage, medical bills, and wage loss.  We will speak and meet with your physicians to determine your future treatment needs, employment restrictions, and probable future physical complications. Adequate representation requires answers to these questions before the value of your case can be determined.

Failure to provide proper notice on one portion of the insurance claim may forfeit your ability to collect benefits on the remaining claims. We consider these and many other issues on a daily basis, and seek to maximize our client’s monetary recovery by coordinating the various insurance claims. Our practice is limited to representing the injured party, or plaintiffs. We never represent insurance companies.

Call us and you will meet and talk personally with an attorney, not an adjuster, not a legal assistant and not a junior associate attorney. Our attorney, Tom Kiernan, has been representing injured people for over 21 years. Call us at 763-682-1082.

Free initial consultation, no fee, if no recovery.

Liquor Liability

The damage left in the wake of an intoxicated driver is frequently the responsibility of both the drunk driver and the bar or establishment which allowed the drunk driver to reach that condition. In Minnesota it is against the law to serve alcohol (beer, mixed drinks, wine or other alcoholic beverage) to an obviously intoxicated person, a minor or conduct an after-hours sale. All of these are deemed illegal sales. Minnesota bars are required to carry liquor liability insurance as a condition of obtaining their beverage license.  If the collision resulted in a death, this may also result in a wrongful death claim, requiring the appointment of a Wrongful Death Trustee. Consequently, the appointment of a Trustee is an issue that you need to discuss with a trusted, experienced trial attorney, at your very earliest opportunity. The legal issues are complex; consult an attorney. Call us today at 763-682-1082.

Recreational Vehicle Accidents

ATV, snowmobile, boat, personal watercraft, and other recreational vehicle Injuries

Advances in technology have made recreational vehicles more powerful, accessible and thus, more dangerous. Even the smaller machines are now capable of reaching speeds too fast for young, inexperienced, and impaired drivers. These vehicles are frequently entrusted to inexperienced drivers, or allowed to carry passengers, by owners without regard to the potential serious consequences. If you or your child has been injured in an ATV or other recreational vehicle crash call us today at 763-682-1082.

Farm-Related Injuries

Farming is among the most dangerous occupations. The frequent road use of implements and the requirement to contain animals is rife with risk for serious injuries. For example, we have represented a motorcycle driver who collided with escaped livestock, and a motorist who struck an unlit implement driven pre-dawn on a rural road. Both resulted in severe injuries and both were preventable. We will conduct a careful analysis of the factors that led to your injury, and if necessary, obtain expert accident reconstruction opinions to determine whether your injury was preventable and if there is a viable claim. Call us today at 763-682-1082.
