When someone's negligence changes your life, you deserve an attorney who will fight to make it right.
A personal injury claim arises whenever you are hurt because of someone else's careless, reckless, or intentional conduct. Under Montana law, you have the right to pursue full compensation for every loss that injury causes — medical bills, lost wages, property damage, and the physical pain and emotional suffering that no dollar amount can fully capture.
Montana follows a modified comparative fault rule (Mont. Code Ann. § 27-1-702). This means you can recover even if you were partially at fault for your accident — as long as you were not more than 50% responsible. Your recovery is reduced by your percentage of fault. Insurance adjusters know this rule and routinely try to pin as much blame on injured victims as possible to minimize their payout. Our job is to hold them accountable to the facts.
Montana's general personal injury statute of limitations is three years from the date of injury (Mont. Code Ann. § 27-2-204). Miss that deadline and your right to sue is permanently barred, regardless of how serious your injuries are. Some cases — particularly those involving government entities — have notice requirements as short as six months. If you've been injured, don't wait.
James Caldwell spent six years as an insurance defense attorney before switching sides. He knows the exact playbook insurers use — the delay tactics, the lowball offers timed around financial pressure, the independent medical exams designed to minimize your injuries. We counter each tactic before it's deployed, because we've deployed them ourselves.
Our track record speaks plainly. We have recovered more than $50 million for Montana injury victims. We have tried over 40 cases to verdict. When insurers see our name on a demand letter, they know we are prepared to go the full distance — and that knowledge alone changes how they treat our clients.
Not every case is the same. These are examples of what's possible when the facts support it.
We evaluate every case at no charge. If we take it, you pay nothing until we win. Call now or complete our quick intake form — an attorney will review your situation today.
