I was on my way to our union hall [Sprinkler Fitters Local 417] for class when the unexpected happened. An uninsured individual changed my life in a way I would never wish on anyone.

Before this, I had little knowledge of Minnesota laws, attorneys, legal battles with insurance, any of that that comes with a car accident…I was blindsided, literally and pun intended.

An emergency room visit and a day later, I thought, what the hell just happened, and what do I do? I called the hall, talked to Craig [Bistodeau, Business Agent], and asked if he knew of an attorney because I had no idea what to do. The number he gave me was for an attorney named Jeff Sieben. I can’t thank Craig enough for his recommendation because Jeff and his team at Know Your Rights took care of my legal battle against an uninsured individual in a “No Fault” state.

Insurance companies and defense attorneys have no care for the extent of your injury; they’re only looking at their dollars. In the end, I had to sue my car insurance. It was last week that my court case was settled, in mediation!!, for the FULL amount of my uninsured motorist policy.

Jeff’s knowledge and experience was the best recommendation for an attorney. If you find yourself in the same situation as I did, I know a heavyweight who will be in your corner to fight your legal battle. Thank you again, Craig, and I can’t thank you enough, Jeff.
