Resolving Disputes In A Thoughtful, Efficient, And Cost-Conscious Way

Experienced Representation for Minnesota Motor Vehicle Accident Victims

As a motor vehicle accident lawyer, I’ve seen a lot of injured people in a lot of difficult situations. One thing that they all have in common is their uphill battle to get the care and compensation they deserve. It’s a hard situation to be in, but you are not going to face it alone.

I am Adam Dowd, and I’ve got decades of experience in personal injury law. Most people believe that personal injury law is a simple practice, but with auto accidents – especially commercial vehicle accidents – injury compensation and settlements can get complicated quickly. I work with my clients throughout the South Metro and in the city of Rochester, striving to get the recovery compensation they deserve.

I’ve Represented Injured People In All Types Of Auto Accidents

Auto accidents happen every single day, and every one of them is different in countless ways. From injuries to the individuals involved, every case is a little different, but some cases can be broken down into important areas, such as:

  • Car accidents: These are any single or multiple car crashes involving all consumers’ available vehicles. Although these are the majority of auto collisions, the injuries and potential complications are nothing to overlook.
  • Motorcycle accidents: Motorcycles are small, light and fast, but they have few of the injury protections of other vehicles. Motorcycle crashes tend to have extremely serious injuries.
  • Commercial truck accidents: From 18-wheelers and construction vehicles to city buses, commercial trucks are the largest and most powerful vehicles on the road. When they are involved in an accident, immense damage is possible.

These accidents are only a few of the major types of auto accidents I’ve taken on as a motor vehicle accident lawyer. My goal with every case I take and every client I have is to provide clear information and constant communication.

I’m Here To Answer Your Questions About Motor Vehicle Accidents

One of the most important discussions I have with my clients is the first one, where they ask me all their most pressing questions. I do everything I can to provide real answers that are accurate to their situation. However, most of my clients ask these questions in our meetings:

What to do after a motor vehicle accident?

Or, more likely, “What should I have done after my accident?” The answer is fairly simple: Get help. You need to make sure you’re OK after a crash and get the medical care you need. You also need to make sure you contact the insurance company to let them know you will file a claim. Minnesota law requires that any accident involving an injury to those involved be reported to the police.

However, there are so many individual moving parts to the post-accident process that a list now isn’t helpful. One of the most impactful things you can do is reach out to me. With my experience as a motor vehicle accident lawyer, I can respond to and manage all of the steps you need to take while protecting your potential compensation.

What is the leading cause of motor vehicle accidents?

If you want a fast answer, the most likely cause of a motor vehicle accident is driver distraction. Other common causes of accidents include:

  • Speeding
  • Weather
  • Reckless driving
  • Aggressive driving
  • Drunk driving

However, no matter the reason for the accident, if you were not at fault for your injury, you deserve to pursue compensation.

Do I need an attorney to get a motor vehicle accident settlement?

While you do not need an attorney to get a fair settlement, forgoing representation puts you at the mercy of the at-fault party’s insurance defense team. They have the experience and information to get you to make decisions and choices that aren’t in your favor.

I counteract all of that by being upfront and honest with you about your rights and the potential outcomes. I work hard for you so you can get the compensation you deserve.
