ABOUT US
APLC MOORE-FAUST INJURY LAW GROUP
Our history: From insurance defense to your advocate
The story of Moore-Faust Injury Law Group is defined by a unique perspective. Founded in 1975 by four attorneys dedicated to public-interest law, the firm originally focused on resolving complex trials for everyday citizens.
A history of knowing both sides
In the 1980s, the firm’s trajectory shifted as we were recruited to represent major insurance companies. Our expertise was nationally recognized, and we were listed among the few elite firms selected for high-stakes insurance defense.
However, we soon realized our true calling was helping people, not corporate interests. We chose to return to our roots, permanently restricting our practice to representing injured individuals.
What this means for you: For over 20 years, we have used our knowledge of insurance company methods to collect millions of dollars for our clients. Because we have seen the claims process from the other side, we understand how to effectively counter the tactics used to limit your recovery.
The law firm today: A singular focus
Moore-Faust Injury Law Group is not a “general practice” law firm. We do not handle criminal defense, family law, or estate planning. We do one thing, and we do it with unmatched precision: Personal Injury Law.
By limiting our practice exclusively to injury claims, we ensure our resources and time are entirely dedicated to your recovery. When you hire us, you are getting a team that focuses on accident law every single day.
Our home: A Rapid City landmark
Our office is more than just a place of business; it is a piece of local history. Located at 924 Quincy Street, in the heart of the West Boulevard Historical District, our building is the renovated home of a Rapid City business pioneer.
We have recreated the interior to provide a comfortable, welcoming environment for our clients. We believe that a personal injury claim is a personal journey, and we want you to feel at ease in a setting that feels like a “home away from home” while we advocate for your future.
