Minnesota Personal Injury Law
In Minnesota, the limitation period for personal injury claims is 6 years from the date of injury (Minn. Stat. § 541.05(1)). Missing this deadline typically bars your claim permanently.
Wrongful death claims must be filed within 3 years under Minn. Stat. § 573.02.
Medical malpractice claims have a 4-year limitation period.
Minnesota follows a modified comparative fault rule (51% bar). You can recover damages if you are 50% or less at fault, but your recovery is reduced by your percentage of fault. If you are 51% or more at fault, you recover nothing.
Minnesota is a no-fault auto insurance state. After an accident, you first file a claim with your own insurer regardless of who caused the accident. You can sue the at-fault driver only if injuries meet a severity threshold.
Minnesota minimum auto insurance: $30,000/$60,000 bodily injury, $10,000 property damage.
