North Dakota is ATV and UTV country. Riders here have access to thousands of miles of trails, grasslands, river bottoms, and rural routes, including corridors in Ward County that draw riders from in and around Minot. But unlike the enclosed vehicles sharing those roads and highways, ATV and UTV riders have little to protect them when something goes wrong. A rollover, a collision, or a mechanical failure can turn a ride into a life-altering injury in seconds.
If you were hurt in an ATV or UTV crash in or around Minot, Lowe Law Group is ready to help.
Your consultation is free. You pay nothing unless we win.
The numbers tell a clear story. According to the North Dakota Vision Zero program, off-highway vehicles were involved in 65 crashes across North Dakota in 2024, resulting in 3 deaths and 72 injuries. These crashes frequently involve rollovers, ejections, and severe head injuries, the kinds of outcomes that are far more common when riders have no doors, no airbags, and no structural frame standing between them and the ground.
That vulnerability is the defining factor in ATV and UTV crashes. A collision that might leave a car occupant shaken can leave a rider with a traumatic brain injury, a spinal cord injury, or worse. The same Vision Zero data notes that helmets can reduce the risk of death in a crash by approximately 42%, a statistic that underscores just how exposed riders are when something goes wrong.
ATV and UTV crashes rarely happen without a reason. Understanding what caused yours is the first step toward identifying who is responsible.
Some of the most common causes we see in Minot and Ward County include:
One of the most important things an attorney does in an ATV or UTV case is to identify every party whose negligence contributed to the crash. That list can be longer than most people expect.
Identifying all liable parties matters because each one carries separate insurance coverage. A claim that names only one defendant may leave significant compensation uncovered. Our Minot personal injury lawyers make sure nothing gets left on the table.
Because riders have no structural protection around them, ATV and UTV crashes tend to produce some of the most severe injuries we see in personal injury cases.
Many of these injuries require months or years of medical care, rehabilitation, and ongoing treatment. They can affect a person’s ability to work, their earning capacity, and their quality of life, long after the crash itself.
Understanding the legal framework that governs your case helps you make informed decisions and avoid mistakes that could reduce or eliminate your recovery.
ATV and UTV cases can be complex. When a vehicle defect is involved, you need attorneys who know how to preserve evidence and pursue manufacturer liability. When another driver is at fault, you need someone who understands how insurers work to minimize claims against their policyholders. When the injuries are severe, you need medical documentation that holds up under scrutiny.
Our in-house medical director, Dr. Andrew Georgi, evaluates injuries with both your recovery and your case in mind, providing documentation that stands up when insurers challenge the severity or permanence of what you’ve been through.
Our forensic reconstruction team establishes what happened and counters attempts to shift blame onto you. Several of our attorneys spent years representing carriers and insurers before joining Lowe Law Group, and they bring that knowledge to every case we take.
We have a local Minot office, a local phone number, and a track record of over $550 million recovered for injured clients across North Dakota, with a 99% win rate.

I was hit on my MOTORCYCLE by a PODS TRUCK in June, yep, you read that right, PODS TRUCK. I was fortunate to walk away, but knew I needed a lawyer for an accident of this magnitude. Now, let me start by saying I don’t trust lawyers, never have. But had to put my differences aside and trust this GROUP of LAWYERS from a different state to handle my affairs. RIGHT AWAY, from the beginning, MARISSA REED, WAS A ROCKSTAR!!! Made me feel at ease and answered all of my ridiculous questions like a VETERAN. Now, this has taken almost 9 months to complete, and it was well worth the wait. Marissa Reed took my settlement to a PLACE WHERE ONLY EAGLES SOAR BABY!! I GOT WAAAAY MORE than expected all thanks to the LOWE LAW GROUP AND FIERY MARISSA REED. Thank you Marissa, for ALL YOU DID FOR ME, AND ALL MY STUPID QUESTIONS. I’m alive, have a HEFTY settlement to spend and am more than thankful for these LAWYERS!! MY ATTITUDE HAS CHANGED FOR THE BETTER ON THEM! HELL YA!!

I was hit by a trailer that crossed the median while I was driving on the highway which not only destroyed my car, but I have had to deal with a concussion, neck and back pain along with other PTSD issues. Life happens, some events alter your life, and it can be difficult to adjust. Lowe Law Group is the absolute best. If you want someone who’s gonna be in your corner and help you out big time. I HIGHLY recommend them. They made it so much easier, and they don’t care just about money. They want you to be able to get the help you need to recover. Specifically, James Brandenburg has been so helpful and relatable. Where other companies have made me feel just like a number, he has made me feel like a friend.

I was in my car waiting at a stoplight when I was rear ended hitting my head, giving me whiplash, and a concussion. It also reaggravated other injuries I was making progress on. Cyra at Lowe Law Group was great jumping right into my case. She was professional and did well in keeping me informed of the process and updating me as needed. There were some challenges in dealing with the culpable party but Lowe Law I believe was able to get me the best settlement possible given all the circumstances and would recommend to anyone who has been involved in an accident.

I cannot say enough, good things about Heather at Lowe Law Group! From the very beginning, she was a beacon of kindness, compassion, and professionalism. She truly cares about her clients, and her empathy shines through in every interaction. Heather made a potentially overwhelming process feel effortless, guiding me with such care and attention to detail that I always felt completely supported and understood. 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!

After one of the worst things that has happened to my daughter or me, Harmony was able help me work through it in every aspect I needed. 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. I really appreciate her and because of her work! If I ever meet someone who has an unfortunate accident, I will give them the contact information for Lowe Law Group and song their/ Harmony’s praises! THANK YOU HARMONY!

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.

Thanks to Ethan for his gentle persuasion and persistent efforts. I am very grateful to have the burden shifted to the real professionals. I might even be able to ski this winter as I expect to be recovered from this accident by the time Powder Mountain has enough snow.
