You may be in pain and unable to work, while medical bills pile up and insurance companies pressure you into unfair settlements.
You don’t have to face this alone. We’ll fight the case while you heal.
If you need broader help beyond your car crash claim, you can also speak with an injury lawyer in Sioux Falls about your full recovery options.
We also help car accident victims in other cities across the U.S., including:
Most insurance companies aren’t looking out for you. They’re profit-driven corporations with an incentive to deny valid claims following car accidents in Sioux Falls.
Many of our attorneys started their careers on the insurance side and switched because of what they experienced.
Unlike settlement mills with cheesy billboards, we’ll fight until you get compensation that meets your needs. We get better results because we have several advantages:
We are one of the only firms with a medical doctor who specializes in litigation injury medicine. He and our medical team assess the long-term impacts of your injury and strengthen your case for higher compensation.
We work with the best accident reconstructionists to recreate and analyze auto accidents. This enables us to show insurance companies or juries exactly how you were injured and who’s at fault.
Unlike most personal injury firms, we have a reputation for taking car accident cases to trial and winning. Insurance companies offer our clients bigger, faster settlements because they don’t want to face us in court and most cases don’t even have to go to court.
There is zero risk to you with our no-win, no-fee guarantee. We fight to maximize your compensation, and we don’t earn anything unless we win.
In South Dakota, you generally have three years from the date of the accident to file a personal injury lawsuit, under South Dakota Codified Laws section 15-2-14. Property damage claims have a longer six-year window. If a minor was injured, the clock may not start until they turn 18. Missing your deadline can mean losing your right to compensation entirely, so it’s best to talk to a Sioux Falls car accident lawyer as soon as possible.
South Dakota is an at-fault state, meaning the driver responsible for causing the accident is financially liable for the resulting injuries and property damage. Drivers are required to carry liability insurance with minimum limits of $25,000 per person and $50,000 per accident for bodily injury, plus $25,000 for property damage. Because insurance companies protect the at-fault driver’s interests, not yours, having your own attorney levels the playing field.
South Dakota uses a unique “slight/gross” comparative negligence rule under S.D. Codified Law 20-9-2. You can still recover damages if your fault was “slight” compared to the other driver’s, though your compensation is reduced by your share of fault. If your fault is found to be more than “slight,” you may be barred from recovering anything. Since there’s no fixed legal definition of “slight,” building a strong case with solid evidence is critical.
Yes. Under South Dakota Codified Laws section 32-34-7, drivers must report an accident to the nearest law enforcement officer if anyone was killed or injured, or if property damage appears to exceed $1,000 to one person’s property or $2,000 total. A police report creates an official record that can support your claim later.
Value depends on factors like your injuries, medical costs, lost wages, and fault under South Dakota’s comparative negligence rule. Insurers often start with lowball offers, hoping you’ll settle early. A Sioux Falls car accident attorney can calculate what your claim is truly worth and fight for a fair settlement.
