Duluth Personal Injury Lawyer

Metro Attorney represents people injured in Duluth, the Iron Range, and across northeastern Minnesota — Hermantown, Cloquet, Two Harbors, Hibbing, Virginia, and Grand Rapids. Long distances, winter driving on I-35 and Highways 53 and 61, heavy truck traffic to and from the port, and steep, icy streets in Duluth itself produce serious injuries every year. We handle the insurance side so you can focus on recovering, and we meet clients in Duluth by appointment, by phone or video, or at home.

Injury claims in Duluth and northeastern Minnesota

Rural and northern crashes differ from metro crashes in ways that affect a claim: emergency response takes longer, injuries are often more severe, and the at-fault driver is more likely to be uninsured or underinsured — which makes your own policy’s uninsured and underinsured motorist coverage important. Logging, mining, and shipping traffic also means more commercial truck crashes; those claims involve more parties and more evidence than a typical collision. We obtain crash reports from the Duluth Police Department, the St. Louis County Sheriff, or the Minnesota State Patrol, and we send preservation demands early so dash-camera and onboard data are not lost.

Common questions from Duluth clients

Do I have to travel to the Twin Cities to work with you?

No. We meet Duluth-area clients by appointment at a Duluth meeting location, by phone or video, or at home. Documents can be signed electronically, and most of a case is handled without an office visit.

Which court handles a Duluth injury lawsuit?

Lawsuits arising in Duluth are generally filed in St. Louis County District Court. Most claims resolve before a lawsuit is necessary, but we prepare each case as though it will be tried.

What if the driver who hit me was uninsured?

Your own Minnesota auto policy includes uninsured and underinsured motorist coverage, which may pay when the at-fault driver has no insurance or too little. Using it should not raise your rates for a crash you didn’t cause.
