OUR TEAM

Experience

I have been a practicing member of the Minnesota State Bar for over 25 years. I have extensive courtroom experience. As an attorney I have participated in hundreds of trials and evidentiary hearings, and thousands of motions at the district court level. I have personally appeared in over three dozen appellate matters before the Minnesota Court of Appeals or the Minnesota Supreme Court, including matters where new law was established.

As a young person, my dream was to become a lawyer, something I achieved through a lot of long hours and hard work.

As a lawyer, I've spent most of my career helping real people (not banks, corporations or the government), find solutions to their often-complex and difficult legal problems.

As your attorney I will explain your legal rights, and the options available to you, in a clear and understandable manner. I will take the time to carefully evaluate the facts and circumstances of your case and how the law applies to your situation. I will be candid with you as to both the merits and any shortcomings of your case. Since the outcome of a court proceeding can have lasting effects for years to come, I will help protect your rights in order to ensure the best outcome possible!

I have been in the legal field for over 15 years, and know first hand what it takes to help make sure that your legal rights are protected.

Even though I don't have much legal experience or training, I'm cute, warm and cuddly, and will help make you feel comfortable and at home in our office!
