Davenport typically enforces a two-year limitation for filing personal injury lawsuits. That means you typically have two years from the date of an accident to file a lawsuit or you are forever barred from doing so.

Many law firms require injury clients to track down medical records and other documents. At VanDerGinst Law, our Davenport Personal Injury Lawyers do all the work necessary to file your claim. We take pictures of the accident site, and of your injuries.
We obtain the records from medical providers. We handle health insurance, Medicare, Medicaid, medical payment insurance, and any other benefits which may apply to your case. We negotiate with the insurance adjuster and other representatives of the opposing party. We position your case for the best settlement possible. If the opponent doesn’t offer a rational settlement, our highly skilled Davenport personal injury lawyers prepare to fight in court to get you the greatest result.
At VanDerGinst Law, we handle personal injury cases on a contingent fee basis. That means that if we don’t get you money for your injuries, there is NO ATTORNEY FEE. You will NEVER be out of pocket a dime. We don’t get paid unless and until you do.
Even though other personal injury attorneys say they charge a contingent fee, they may also require a retainer fee for other costs (filing fees, expert fees, court reporter fees, postage, records, etc.). That can often add up to hundreds, even thousands of dollars. At VanDerGinst Law, there is NO RETAINER FEE on injury cases. We forward all costs necessary to pursue your claim.

With national resources and local connections, our Davenport personal injury lawyers can get you the greatest compensation for your personal injury claim.
Our Davenport Personal Injury Lawyers Also Have the Inside Track into The Insurance Industry. We do not, and never will, represent insurance companies, thus always maintaining that we never have a conflict of interest in representing our injury clients. But we employ former insurance adjusters and insurance defense attorneys who know the tricks of the trade. We put that expertise to work for you!
If you have suffered serious injuries, you need a personal injury law firm that concentrates on injury law, rather than a lawyer who occasionally “dabbles.” The practice of law is much like the practice of medicine. There are practitioners who have “general” practices and others who specialize.
At VanDerGinst Law we focus on injury law.
We are not saying that general practice attorneys aren’t able to handle an occasional injury claim. But, consider this: if you needed brain surgery, you would see a brain surgeon. Not your family doctor.
By the same token, you can feel completely assured that you will be in great hands with the personal injury lawyers of VanDerGinst Law.
We can expertly handle ANY injury case that comes our way.
Anyone can make that kind of statement. But can they prove it? We can. VanDerGinst Law is one of the only law firms in the country to have been awarded the Better Business Bureau’s Torch Award for Ethics.
We have also been awarded the Client’s Choice Award from Avvo Lawyer Rating Service and the Client Champion Award from Martindale-Hubbell Attorney Rating Service.

Known for being a green city, it has over 50 local parks making it easy for its more than 99,000 locals to enjoy biking and walking in nature. Davenport serves as the regional beacon and hub of the metropolitan Quad Cities with loads of outdoor festivals, museums and theaters. But even with its Midwestern values, Davenport still has its fair share of injury accidents.
According to the Iowa Department of Transportation, there were 197,237 injuries and 3,463 deaths between 2010 and 2019 in Iowa from auto accidents alone.
Additionally, Iowans are injured from slip-and-fall accidents, nursing home negligence, dog bites, construction accidents, agricultural accidents, work related accidents, faulty products, and countless other situations.
