The Minneapolis area recorded 17,880 total traffic crashes in 2023 according to the Minnesota Department of Transportation's MNCrash Dashboard, with 63,664 motor vehicle accidents statewide in 2024 resulting in 23,769 injuries and 498 fatalities per MnDOT data. Hennepin County — home to Minneapolis — is consistently identified as the primary county for the state's deadliest road stretches, with I-94 through the Minneapolis metro recording the highest concentration of fatal crashes in Minnesota over the most recent five-year period. Beyond auto accidents, Minneapolis residents are hurt every year in workplace accidents across Hennepin County's manufacturing, construction, and healthcare sectors, in slip and falls on commercial and residential properties, and in medical negligence at area hospitals. TopDog fights to get you every dollar you deserve.
Minneapolis's most dangerous corridors are well documented. The stretch of I-94 through the Minneapolis metro recorded the most fatal crashes of any road segment in Minnesota over the most recent five-year period per MnDOT analysis. Highway 252 and I-94 in Brooklyn Center, Brooklyn Park, and North Minneapolis exceed the statewide crash rate for roads of that type according to MnDOT. The Vision Zero plan for Minneapolis identified Hennepin Avenue, Chicago Avenue, Franklin Avenue, and Plymouth Avenue in North Minneapolis and Midtown Minneapolis as the city's high-injury corridors. Hennepin Healthcare — Minnesota's first and busiest Level I Adult and Pediatric Trauma Center — serves the most seriously injured patients from across the region. Those accidents cause real damage to Minneapolis families and we fight to get injured people the care and money they deserve.
Insurance companies operating across Hennepin County may try to use Minnesota's comparative fault rules to push your fault to 51% or higher and eliminate your claim. They may also dispute whether your injuries meet the tort threshold to step outside the no-fault system. We know how to leverage the justice system in Hennepin County District Court to fight back and get you what you may be owed.
IMPORTANT MINNESOTA LEGAL INFORMATION
Statute of Limitations: 6 years from the date of injury for most personal injury claims under Minn. Stat. § 541.05. Wrongful death: 3 years from the date of death under Minn. Stat. § 573.02. Medical malpractice: 4 years from the date the cause of action accrues under Minn. Stat. § 541.076.
No-Fault Insurance (PIP): Minnesota is a no-fault state. Your own PIP coverage pays your medical bills and a portion of lost wages first, regardless of fault, up to policy limits ($20,000 medical / $20,000 non-medical minimum). To sue the at-fault driver for pain and suffering, your injuries must meet the tort threshold — at least $4,000 in medical expenses, permanent injury, permanent disfigurement, 60 days of disability, or death.
Comparative Negligence: Modified comparative fault with a 51% bar under Minn. Stat. § 604.01. If you are found 51% or more at fault, you cannot recover. If less than 51% at fault, your recovery is reduced by your fault percentage.
Insurance Minimums: $30,000 per person / $60,000 per accident BI liability; $10,000 property damage; $40,000 PIP ($20,000 medical / $20,000 non-medical) per person; $25,000/$50,000 UM/UIM coverage required.
This is a brief summary of commonly applied laws in the jurisdiction. There are often different laws that apply to different circumstances. Once you hire TopDog, your attorney will advise you on the applicable laws.
Insurance companies in Minnesota may make early low offers while disputing whether your injuries meet the tort threshold to step outside the no-fault system. They may also use comparative fault rules to push your percentage to 51% or above. TopDog Law and its co-counsel fight for the full recovery.
