8. Why the SCHMIDT LAW FIRM?

Minnesota Farm Injury Attorney

The Schmidt Law Firm is one of the premier personal injury/wrongful death lawyer firms in the State of Minnesota with special expertise and experience in farm or agricultural-related cases.

Douglas E. Schmidt, the senior trial lawyer of the firm, says this:

“I was born and raised on the farm. I know that farming is a tough business and hard work. The cows need to be milked every morning and every night. The crops need to be planted, cultivated and harvested, rain or shine, and on nature’s timetable, not ours.

When you’ve been injured or suffered economic loss, you need a strong, experienced, hard-working lawyer to fight for your rights.”

Schmidt has a long and distinguished career in successfully prosecuting cases involving farm accidents, including the following types of equipment:

power take offs;
mixer grinders;
grain augers;
farm tractors;
combines;
grain harvesters;
silo blowers;
planters;

Schmidt also has a successful track record in prosecuting injuries due to exposure to farm chemicals, including pesticides, herbicides, insectides, and other farm chemicals.

Schmidt has successfully prosecuted cases of economic damages involving:

adulterated feed
defective vaccines
negligent balancing of food rations for dairy cattle and poultry
