Small Town Roots and Statewide Success Since 1948

• You are arrested for DUI in Sioux Falls, and a conviction will cost you your job.
• A pickup slams in to your car in Dell Rapids, and you are badly hurt.
• A truck sideswipes your motorcycle on I-90 outside of Mitchell, SD. You won't make it to Sturgis, or even out of the hospital for the next three months.
• You manage a utility  and the local municipalities are stealing your customers.
• You are a small business owner and a contractor you have already paid refuses to sign a lien waiver.
• Your mother recently died, and you discover that she changed her will while in a nursing home-leaving her entire estate to a person you have never met.
• You are an insurance agent or company who is being threatened with sanctions by the Division of Insurance.
   

With offices in Sioux Falls and Parker, South Dakota, the attorneys at Zimmer, Duncan and Cole provide fast, adaptable, approachable, and professional legal services in a variety of practice areas including: 

• Motor Vehicle Accidents: Car, truck, and motorcycle accidents can be caused by distracted, fatigued, or negligent drivers, bad weather, or poor road conditions. A recent study by the Insurance Research Council estimates that 7 percent of South Dakota Drivers are uninsured. A lawyer can determine who was at fault and help you recover appropriate compensation for your losses and injuries.

The South Dakota Supreme Court recently determined that the state is not responsible for posting warning signs at dangerous intersections. That means the next mother or father whose child is killed at an improperly posted intersection will need a lawyer willing to take the case back to the Supreme Court. 

• General Business Litigation: If a local municipality, a bank, or another business is dealing with you unfairly or interfering with your ability to run your business, retaining legal counsel may be the best business decision you'll ever make. 
• Criminal Defense: If you are accused of a crime, can you trust an over-stressed public defense system to provide you with a lawyer, or should you hire an attorney with proven case results? 
  
• Will Contests: What do you do if someone manipulated your aging mother, or tricked your grandfather into signing away his savings? How would you react if someone told a lie that broke the bonds of trust between you and your parents? People do strange things for money, but you know your family best. If you believe that someone used inappropriate influence or tricked your loved one into changing his or her will, contact an attorney. 
• Health and Disability Insurance: Your health and disability insurer refuses to pay policy benefits you are due. Our attorneys have years of experience in making sure that your health and disability insurer pays all of the benefits you are owed.
