Earning The No-Fault Coverage You Deserve
When seeking compensation for a car accident in Minnesota, it is important to know how the state’s legal system will direct the course of your personal injury claim. The system is complicated as the law prohibits you from initially filing a claim against the driver that hit you. You may be wondering where you can get your compensation and how to get it.
At the Law Office of Jeffrey A. Jones, P.A., we have been representing the needs of clients across the state with their personal injury claims. We are fluent in the unique laws that can influence your claim, and we are prepared to guide you through the resolution process while explaining the details of your claim to you.
How No-Fault Claims Work
When two people get into a car accident in Minnesota, state law sees this collision as a no-fault car accident. These accidents, according to the law, do not consider fault as a factor when providing a settlement for the costs of the accident like medical bills, lost income and property damage. Minnesota law requires that every driver has a minimum personal injury protection (PIP) insurance policy that can provide them with the compensation they need.
What PIPs Pay For
Every PIP has a minimum value of $40,000 in compensation for the policyholder, with $20,000 each for medical and nonmedical expenses. After an accident, the victim must first pursue compensation from this policy. Despite the sole purpose of these policies being to pay you after your accident, sometimes insurance companies will dispute having to pay you.
In these cases, we are prepared to fight to pursue every cent that belongs to you from your PIP policy. We are not afraid to stand up to insurance companies and their bad-faith practices, and we are committed to providing you with the compassionate and personalized representation you need to pursue the outcome you deserve in your car accident or other injury claim.
