Big Settlements. Meaningful Results. The Representation You Deserve.

Free Consultation

Blacktail is the trusted car accident lawyer serving Kalispell, Bigfork and Lakeside, Montana.

Regrettably, Montana's thoroughfares, intersections, and highways present inherent risks. Life can be irrevocably altered in a mere moment of carelessness from another driver. When confronted with an injury caused by someone else's negligence, seeking just compensation becomes imperative, necessitating top-tier legal support.


The array of factors contributing to vehicular accidents is extensive, spanning from failure to yield during turns to impairment due to intoxication or fatigue, among others. Despite safety measures such as airbags and seatbelts, the sheer mass of passenger vehicles underscores the severity of injuries sustained in collisions, ranging from:


  • Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI)
  • Fractures and internal bleeding
  • Herniated discs and joint dislocations
  • Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD)


In the aftermath of an accident, holding the responsible party accountable for associated costs becomes a matter of principle. However, navigating the complexities of personal injury litigation arising from car crashes can prove arduous, with adversaries often disputing liability or attempting to shift blame onto the victim.


Blacktail Law Group stands ready to undertake a comprehensive investigation of your circumstances, construct a robust case, and vigorously advocate for the restitution you rightfully deserve. Our aim is to alleviate some of the burdens you bear and streamline the daunting legal process, offering you peace of mind during this challenging period.


As personal injury attorneys operating in Whitefish, Bigfork and Kalispell, we are committed to recovering the full amount owed to injured accident victims like you. 

Past results afford no guarantee of future results. Each case is different and judged on its merits.

Don't hesitate. If you've been injured contact us now at (406) 318-7223

Accident FAQ's

Blacktail Law Group focuses almost exclusively on personal injury and civil litigation. We do not handle family law or defamation of character cases. 


In an ideal world, straightforward cases shouldn't require legal assistance, but the reality is that the majority of cases are far from simple when the law is involved. Statistics show that individuals and businesses who choose to represent themselves often end up with less favorable outcomes, such as reduced injury payouts and lobsided settlements, compared to those who enlist the expertise of a skilled attorney. 


Yes, but the insurance carrier is often trained to pressure you into accepting a settlement for far less than your case is worth. Personal injury attorneys understand the different types of damages you have and will, on average, obtain a settlement much higher than if you do it yourself.


 Serious injuries often only show up on X-rays or scans. Don’t sign any insurance release until you know your full condition. If you delay treatment, the insurance company may refuse to cover later medical costs. If you need a provider in the Flathead Valley who will wait for a settlement payment, Blacktail Law Group knows experienced doctors, physical therapists and chiropractors. No upfront bills while you heal.


Yes. The at-fault party’s insurance should provide a rental car. They may ask you to pay upfront and reimburse later. Once you’re our client, Blacktail Law Group handles the property damage claim to secure your rental.


That’s likely the at-fault party’s claims adjuster. They often request a recorded statement. Never give one without your attorney on the line—anything you say can be used against you. Adjusters work for the person who caused the crash and aim to pay you the least possible, no matter how friendly they sound.


No. These early offers come before your injuries and treatment needs are fully known and are almost always far below a case’s true value. A skilled lawyer routinely obtains much higher compensation.


You’re entitled to payment of medical bills, compensation for pain and suffering, lost wages, and future medical needs. Only an experienced personal injury attorney and the insurance adjuster can accurately value the claim after reviewing all damages.


Use your own uninsured/underinsured motorist coverage. Blacktail Law Group can file and pursue the claim with your insurer, who then seeks reimbursement from the at-fault party.


No. In most cases we resolve claims with fair settlements without ever filing a lawsuit.


Fee structures may vary depending on the unique circumstances of your case, but our personal injury cases are on a contingency basis, providing assurance that you do not incur legal costs and we only get paid if we win. Our other practice areas are based on hourly rates and may require a retainer.


Timeframes largely hinge on the nature of your case. Typically, the sooner your Kalispell attorney begins constructing your case, the sooner you can anticipate seeing outcomes. Nonetheless, external variables invariably come into play, making it impractical to provide an exact timeframe. 


In Montana, statutes of limitations vary based on the issue you're dealing with and your particular situation. If you are seeking representation, schedule a consultation with us, and we'll be happy to review your case.
