A settlement offer that lands a week after your accident is rarely the number you deserve. Minneapolis personal injury lawyers on this page have logged 2,708 Google reviews between them, and every firm rates 4.7 or higher, so the real decision is which one fits the specifics of your injury, not whether the ratings hold up.

Short answer: Goldenberg Lauricella, PLLC is our Featured Partner, a Minneapolis firm at 4.7 stars built around birth injuries, defective medical devices and catastrophic personal injury claims. On raw volume, Hoglund Law leads with 611 reviews at 4.9, while Schwebel, Goetz & Sieben holds a perfect 5.0 across 536 reviews. Most firms here work on contingency, so there's no upfront cost to a consultation.

How we score

Every number on this page is computed from public Google data on the date shown, not from opinion or payment. Rating is the firm’s live Google star average. Review volume is how many clients have rated them, ranked against other Minneapolis injury firms. Confidence weighs the rating by that volume, so a 4.9 from hundreds of reviewers carries more weight than a 4.7 from a couple dozen. Recency reflects how recently clients are still leaving reviews. No firm can pay to change these numbers.

How much does a personal injury lawyer cost in Minneapolis? (2026)

Every firm on this page describes working on contingency: no upfront legal fee, and payment comes only as a percentage of a successful settlement or verdict. The exact percentage, and how the firm handles upfront case costs like medical-record retrieval or expert witnesses, varies firm to firm, so get it in writing before you sign a retainer.

Serving all of Minneapolis

The firms above cover downtown Minneapolis and the surrounding Twin Cities metro, including Bloomington, Brooklyn Park, St. Paul and St. Cloud. Searching for a personal injury lawyer near me? Every listing below shows a live phone number and address so you can reach the closest office fast.

What to ask before you hire a personal injury lawyer

  • Is the initial consultation free, and is the fee strictly contingency-based?
  • What percentage do you take from a settlement versus a trial verdict?
  • Does your firm have experience with my specific type of injury or claim?
  • Who will be my main point of contact throughout the case?
  • How do you cover upfront costs like medical records or expert witnesses?
  • What happens to any liens or costs if I decide to change attorneys mid-case?

Frequently asked questions

How did you choose these personal injury lawyers?

We started from every personal injury attorney in Minneapolis with a public Google presence, then ranked by rating, review volume, consistency, and recency. See How we score above.

Are these rankings paid?

No. Rankings come from the public Google data in the scorecard. A business can pay to be a Featured Partner, which adds a badge and top placement, but that never changes another business’s score or position on the underlying data.

How often is this updated?

The data carries a verified date (September 2026 on this page). We refresh listings periodically so ratings and review counts stay current.

Do personal injury lawyers in Minneapolis charge upfront?

Every firm here describes a contingency-fee model: no upfront cost, and payment comes only out of a successful settlement or verdict. Confirm the exact percentage and cost terms in writing before signing.

How long do I have to file a personal injury claim in Minnesota?

Minnesota’s statute of limitations and no-fault insurance rules affect the filing window, and it can vary by claim type. Talk to a lawyer as soon as possible after an injury rather than waiting to see how you feel.

The bottom line

Goldenberg Lauricella is our Featured Partner and the strongest specialist pick for a birth injury, medical malpractice, or defective-device claim. If you want the deepest general-practice bench in Minneapolis, Hoglund Law’s 611 reviews at 4.9 make it the safe default. Whichever you call, get the contingency fee and cost terms in writing before you sign.
