Bismarck sits at the intersection of I-94 and I-83, two of North Dakota’s busiest corridors for both commercial and passenger traffic. Accidents happen every day, from high-speed collisions on the interstate to crashes on the Bismarck Expressway and surface streets throughout the metro area. When they do, the consequences can be severe.
What most people don’t expect is what comes next. Medical bills arrive before you’ve had a chance to process what happened. Insurance adjusters make contact early, often before you’ve spoken with an attorney, with settlement offers that rarely reflect what your case is actually worth. And North Dakota’s legal landscape, with its own statutes, fault rules, and filing deadlines, adds another layer of complexity to an already overwhelming situation.
An experienced personal injury lawyer in Bismarck, North Dakota knows how to navigate all of it. That’s exactly what Lowe Law Group does.
Lowe Law Group represents injured people and families across the full spectrum of serious personal injury cases in Bismarck, Mandan, and throughout Burleigh County. If someone else’s negligence caused your injury, we can help.
Car accidents are the most common personal injury claim in North Dakota, and also among the most contested. Insurance companies routinely dispute liability, minimize injury severity, and push early settlements. Whether your crash happened on I-94, at a Bismarck intersection, or on a rural Burleigh County road, our team knows how to investigate the facts, establish fault, and fight for what you’re actually owed.
Collisions involving commercial trucks are governed by a separate layer of federal FMCSA regulations, involve multiple potentially liable parties, and are defended by well-resourced insurers from day one. These cases demand specialized knowledge and immediate action. If you were injured in a commercial truck crash in Bismarck, our dedicated Bismarck truck accident attorneys handle every aspect of your claim.
Riders are disproportionately vulnerable on North Dakota roads, and insurance companies know it. Bias against motorcyclists is common in accident investigations and settlement negotiations. Our Bismarck injury lawyers push back against unfair fault assignments and fight to recover full compensation for what are often catastrophic, life-altering injuries.
Pedestrians have almost no protection in a collision with a motor vehicle. Accidents at Bismarck crosswalks, intersections, and parking areas frequently result in severe injuries. We represent pedestrian accident victims and hold negligent drivers and property owners accountable for the harm they cause.
Losing a family member to someone else’s negligence is devastating. North Dakota law allows surviving family members to pursue compensation for funeral and burial expenses, lost financial support, and the profound personal loss that no settlement can fully address. Lowe Law Group handles wrongful death cases with the seriousness and compassion your family deserves.
Insurance companies have teams of adjusters, investigators, and attorneys working to limit what they pay you. We built Lowe Law Group to match that resource advantage and beat it.
Here’s what sets us apart:
Multidisciplinary team: Our cases are built by a team that includes accident reconstruction specialists, forensic analysts, and investigators who know how to preserve evidence and establish liability.
In-house medical director: Dr. Andrew Georgi works directly with our clients from the earliest stages of every case, documenting injuries thoroughly, connecting treatment to the accident, and countering insurer tactics designed to minimize what you’re owed.
99% win rate: Insurance companies know our track record. That reputation drives better outcomes at the negotiating table before a case ever reaches court.
Contingency fee structure: You pay nothing unless we win. No upfront costs, no hourly fees, no financial risk.
30-day risk-free guarantee: If you sign with us and change your mind within the first 30 days, you can walk away owing nothing.
Our results speak for themselves: $550 million recovered, 13,172 cases won, and an average litigation recovery of $236,198.
When the other side has resources, you need a Bismarck injury law firm that has more.

Before pursuing an injury claim in Bismarck, there are a few critical legal frameworks every victim should understand. These rules govern your right to compensation, the deadlines you’re working against, and how fault is determined. Knowing them can make the difference between a strong claim and a missed opportunity.
Under North Dakota Century Code § 28-01-16, most personal injury claims must be filed within six years of the accident date. For wrongful death claims, the deadline is two years from the date of death under North Dakota Century Code § 28-01-18.1. While six years is longer than most states allow, waiting is still dangerous. Evidence disappears, witnesses become harder to locate, and insurance companies use delays against you. The sooner you act, the stronger your case.
North Dakota follows a modified comparative negligence rule under North Dakota Century Code § 32-03.2-02. You can still recover compensation if you were partially at fault, as long as your share of fault doesn’t exceed 50%. Your recovery is reduced by your percentage of fault. Insurers routinely try to inflate a victim’s fault percentage to reduce what they owe. Our Bismarck personal injury attorneys push back against those arguments aggressively and with evidence.
If your accident involved a government vehicle, a state highway, or public property, different rules apply. Under North Dakota Century Code § 32-12.2-04, claims against the state must be presented in writing within 180 days of discovering the injury. Damages are capped at $250,000 per person and $1,000,000 per occurrence. These cases move on a much shorter timeline than standard personal injury claims, making immediate legal action essential.
The steps you take immediately after an accident can significantly affect your claim. Here’s what matters most:
Call 911. A police report creates an official record of the accident. Don’t skip this step, even if the crash seems minor.
Seek medical attention immediately. Some injuries, including traumatic brain injuries and internal trauma, don’t present obvious symptoms right away. A prompt medical evaluation protects both your health and your claim.
Document the scene. If you’re able to, photograph the vehicles, road conditions, and any visible injuries. Collect contact information from witnesses.
Avoid recorded statements. Insurance adjusters may contact you quickly. You are not required to give a recorded statement, and you shouldn’t until you have legal representation.
Don’t sign anything. Early settlement offers often come with release forms that forfeit your right to pursue further compensation. Nothing gets signed without an attorney reviewing it first.
Contact us as soon as possible. Evidence disappears fast. The sooner we get involved, the more we can do to protect your case.
Every case is different. Straightforward claims with clear liability can resolve through settlement in a matter of months. Cases involving serious injuries, disputed fault, or multiple liable parties often take longer. What matters most is the outcome, not the timeline. We never push you toward a settlement that doesn’t reflect your full damages. Lowe Law Group keeps you informed at every stage and never pressures you toward a settlement that doesn’t reflect your full damages.
The value of a personal injury claim depends on several factors: the severity of your injuries, the impact on your ability to work, the cost of your medical treatment, and the degree of the other party’s negligence. Cases involving permanent injuries, long-term care needs, or significant lost income are typically worth more. The best way to get an accurate picture of what your case is worth is to speak with an experienced Bismarck personal injury attorney who can evaluate the specific facts of your situation.
You can still recover compensation. North Dakota’s modified comparative negligence rule allows injury victims to pursue a claim as long as their share of fault doesn’t exceed 50%. Your recovery will be reduced by your percentage of fault, but you are not barred from pursuing compensation. Insurance companies routinely try to inflate a victim’s fault percentage to reduce what they owe. We challenge those arguments directly and build the evidence needed to support your account of what happened.
Most personal injury cases in North Dakota resolve through negotiated settlements before trial. However, not every insurer makes a fair offer, and some cases require litigation to achieve the right outcome. Lowe Law Group is fully prepared to take your case to court if that’s what it takes. Our 99% win rate means insurance companies know we’re not a firm that folds under pressure, which often drives better settlement outcomes before a trial becomes necessary.
If the insurance company contacts you, be polite but brief. You are not required to give a recorded statement or provide detailed information about your injuries. Tell them you are in the process of retaining legal representation and that your attorney will be in touch. Then contact Lowe Law Group as soon as possible. Early contact from an adjuster is a sign that the other side is already working to protect their interests. You should be doing the same.
Possibly. North Dakota’s statute of limitations gives most personal injury victims six years from the date of the accident to file a claim under North Dakota Century Code § 28-01-16. However, waiting weakens your case. Evidence disappears, witnesses become harder to locate, and gaps in medical treatment give insurers ammunition to dispute your injuries. If you’re unsure whether you still have a viable claim, contact a Bismarck injury lawyer for a free case evaluation.
Nothing upfront. We work on a contingency fee basis, which means you pay no fees unless we win your case. There are no hourly charges, no retainer requirements, and no upfront costs of any kind. We also offer a 30-day risk-free guarantee: if you sign with us and change your mind within the first 30 days, you can walk away owing nothing.

It’s rare to meet somebody who combines such warmth with incredible expertise, but Heather doesn’t flawlessly. She’s truly a gem, and I am beyond grateful for everything she has done!

From the first day we spoke she worked was so kind, honest and she worked hard for us and went above and beyond. Giving me space when I needed it encouraged me to talk when I needed to. She helped me get medical information, check out the boxes of requirements, find a counselor, and More behind-the-scenes I don’t even know about. I NEVER FELT ALONE, it stopped being my battle and it became her’s.This whole process took maybe five months and at the beginning I guessed this would be over one year.

Being in a car accident and dealing with everything from the car damage to the injuries and everything in between is very stressful. I am so grateful for everyone at Lowe Law for helping me every step of the way. Kaitlyn kept me updated on the progress of the case and answered all the questions I had. Jason and Pete are very knowledgeable and explained each step and helped guide me throughout the process. I would highly recommend them to anyone who has been in a car accident.
Thanks to Ethan for his gentle persuasion and persistent efforts.
