Best Truck Accident Lawyers in Minneapolis, MN (2026)
Independently researched. No sponsored rankings. Free case reviews from vetted firms.
Minneapolis-St. Paul (Twin Cities) is a major Midwest distribution hub — I-94, I-35, and I-90 all carry significant commercial truck volume. The metro is home to multiple Fortune 500 logistics companies (Target, UnitedHealth, Best Buy) generating heavy intra-metro truck activity.
Important Minnesota context: MN has the LONGEST PI statute of limitations in our coverage at 6 years (Minn. Stat. § 541.05) — vs the typical 2-3 years. Minnesota also uses no-fault PIP for initial medical and wage claims — to sue for pain and suffering, you must meet the tort threshold (which truck accident victims almost always do).
Our editorial team reviewed five Minneapolis law firms with substantial truck accident practice histories — including McEwen & Kestner, which has an NBTA-certified truck accident specialist on staff.
