What You Need to Know

Statute of Limitations in Minnesota

Minnesota requires personal injury claims to be filed within 2 years of the date of injury under Minn. Stat. § 541.05. Missing this deadline bars your right to compensation.

Comparative Fault

Minnesota follows a modified comparative fault rule — you may recover as long as your share of fault is 50% or less. Damages are reduced by your percentage of fault.

Workers' Compensation

Minnesota workers' comp provides no-fault benefits for workplace burn injuries. However, you retain the right to pursue third-party claims against contractors, equipment manufacturers, and other non-employer parties.

Legal Action for Burn Injuries

Recovery Available

If your burn was caused by someone else's negligence — a dangerous worksite, defective machinery, chemical exposure, or an unsafe property — you likely have a viable claim in Minnesota.

You may recover damages for:

  • Past and future medical care
  • Pain and suffering
  • Lost wages and earning capacity
  • Disfigurement and scarring
  • Psychological trauma
