Step-by-Step Guide
What Should You Do After an Accident in Eden Prairie?
- 1
Call 911 and Report the Accident
In Minnesota, you are legally required to report accidents involving injury, death, or significant property damage. Call 911 from the scene in Eden Prairie and request both police and medical assistance.
- 2
Seek Immediate Medical Attention
Go to a hospital or urgent care — even if you feel fine. Many injuries like whiplash, concussions, and internal bleeding don't show symptoms immediately. Seek treatment at the nearest emergency facility.
- 3
Document Everything at the Scene
Take photos and videos of all vehicles, injuries, road conditions, traffic signals, and skid marks. Get names, phone numbers, and insurance information from all parties and witnesses.
- 4
Do Not Speak to Insurance Adjusters Without an Attorney
Insurance companies will contact you quickly — often within 24 hours. Their goal is to get a recorded statement they can use against you and to offer a lowball settlement before you understand your claim's true value.
- 5
Contact a Personal Injury Attorney Immediately
Minnesota's statute of limitations is 6 years (Minn. Stat. § 541.07). However, critical evidence — surveillance footage, witness memories, vehicle data — degrades rapidly. The sooner you call Bond Legal at (866) 423-7724, the stronger your case.
- 6
Keep All Medical Records and Bills
Every doctor visit, prescription, therapy session, and medical bill becomes evidence of your damages. Keep a daily journal documenting your pain levels, limitations, and emotional impact.

Statute of Limitations: 6 years
Source: Minn. Stat. § 541.07
In Minnesota, you generally have 6 years from the date of your injury to file a personal injury lawsuit. Missing this deadline typically bars you from recovering any compensation.

Key Minnesota Laws Affecting Your Case
Modified Comparative Fault (51% Bar)

6-Year Statute of Limitations

Minn. Stat. § 65B.44
Minnesota is a no-fault state requiring PIP coverage of at least $20,000 for medical expenses and $20,000 for lost wages. To sue for pain and suffering, you must show either $4,000+ in medical expenses or suffer a permanent injury (Minn. Stat. § 65B.51).

DWI Law
Minn. Stat. § 169A.20
Minnesota's DWI law sets the BAC limit at .08 for adults, .00 for those under 21, and .04 for commercial drivers. Implied consent applies. BAC of .16+ triggers aggravated penalties. Minnesota's DWI framework is one of the strictest in the Midwest.
Dram Shop Liability
Minn. Stat. § 340A.801
Minnesota's dram shop statute imposes strict liability on licensed alcohol sellers who illegally sell alcohol — to minors, visibly intoxicated persons, or after hours — if the sale is a proximate cause of injury.
