Virginia, MN, Car Accident Lawyers

Protecting Clients Throughout St. Louis County & Carlton County

Auto accidents on the roads and highways in northeastern Minnesota are, unfortunately, quite common. Because of this, they are the most frequent cause of personal injury claims. These accidents can lead to injuries that can range from a minor case of whiplash to catastrophic damage to the brain or spine and, in the worst cases, to permanent disability or wrongful death. For those who survive, optimum recovery can take weeks, months, or years, depending on the extent of the injuries. Throughout all this, your life has been thrown into chaos, stress, and uncertainty.

Our law firm has fiercely advocated for Minnesota accident victims since 1960, and we continue to fight for full and fair compensation to this very day.
