To win a personal injury case in Montana, victims must prove that the person responsible for injuries or damages owed you a duty and that he/she failed to carry out that duty in a reasonable and appropriate manner. Victims must also prove that the defendant’s failure to carry out that duty resulted in injuries or damages. Montana also has a “comparative negligence law,” which means if you were partly at fault, you can’t receive 100 percent compensation. Personal injury lawyers in Montana are experts at proving negligence and making sure you get the compensation you are entitled to, including medical expenses, lost wages, and property damages.

Montana offers victims a three year statute of limitations during which to file claims. During this time, personal injury victims work closely with personal injury attorneys to gather evidence, file paperwork, and retain medical and damage records.
