Minnesota No-Fault Car Accident Law – Replacement Service Loss Benefits
The following information on Minnesota no-fault replacement service loss benefits is provided by Pritzker | Ruohonen, a Minnesota personal injury law firm with a national reputation. Both Fred Pritzker and Rich Ruohonen have been named "Super Lawyers" by Law & Politics magazine. Fred Pritzker is also listed in The Best Lawyers in America.

According to Minnesota no-fault law, "replacement service loss benefits shall reimburse all expenses reasonably incurred by or on behalf of the nonfatally injured person in obtaining usual and necessary substitute services in lieu of those that, had the injured person not been injured, the injured person would have performed not for income but for direct personal benefit or for the benefit of the injured person's household" (Minn. Stat. Sec. 65B.44).
Special provision has been made for full-time homemakers. The no-fault law defines such a person as person who, "normally, as a full time responsibility, provides care and maintenance of a home with or without children" (Minn. Stat. Sec. 65B.44). The benefit to be provided under the law shall be the reasonable value (not more than $200/week) of such care and maintenance or the reasonable expenses incurred in obtaining usual and necessary substitute care and maintenance of the home, whichever is greater. Additional restrictions apply.
The maximum benefit under the law for these and other losses is $20,000. Your insurance coverage may provide for additional coverage. Please contact one of our lawyers for more information about replacement service loss benefits under Minnesota no-fault auto accident law.
