Why Schwebel, Goetz & Sieben?
No other law firm knows more about Personal Injury law or your rights than we do. The success of our firm has everything to do with the outstanding level of service each of us provides to our clients every day.
Our Car Accident Practice
If you have been injured in a car accident, the experienced Minnesota car accident attorneys at Schwebel, Goetz & Sieben want to ensure that you are fairly compensated for your losses, even if the collision was partially your fault.
Our Wrongful Death Practice
A wrongful death claim is defined as "the death of a person caused by the conduct or negligence of another." The claim is not based on damages to the decedent, but rather it is based on the surviving spouse, family members or even parents.
Product Liability
Product liability is an area of law that holds product manufacturers, wholesalers and retailers accountable for injuries suffered from an unsafe product. Virtually all products are subject to product liability law.
