Seasoned Employment Law, Eminent Domain, And Business Litigation Attorneys
We go to trial for expeditious – and successful – resolutions to our clients’ legal problems arising from discrimination, harassment, retaliation and other issues in their workplaces. We are seasoned attorneys who also frequently resolve eminent domain and business litigation cases in the courtroom.
Our Trial Experience Sets Us Apart From Other Law Firms
We Pack A Powerful Punch For A Small Law Firm
It is the 21st century and we are still facing draconian employers violating state and federal laws on a regular basis. We’d like to end that. This is why we go to trial more than many other area lawyers. There is no reason for discrimination, sexual harassment, hostile work environments, retaliation or wrongful termination to make your professional life miserable. Yet, here you are. Talk to us.
As trial lawyers, we like being successful, and we want you to be successful, too. We do not take on every person’s case. If we agree to represent you, we are all in. We do the research. We investigate. We gather all sides and facets of your circumstances. We anticipate the unasked questions. We will build a strong, three-dimensional strategy to solve your legal problem using state and federal regulations and case law that protects your rights in the workplace.
Our clients know and rely on our talent, relentlessness, creativity and track record of success. We primarily represent employees in employment law matters but have extensive experience representing employers as well. This unique perspective benefits our clients as we are able to prepare for the actions of our adversaries in a broad range of cases, including job discrimination and harassment claims as well as disputes over employment agreements.

The Government Wants To Expand A Road Through Your Property. Can It?
Minnesota’s cost of living, four seasons and business-friendly atmosphere are drawing all sorts of Fortune 500 companies and people to the state. You can make a lot of money at your job in this area while thriving on a cost of living that is still below the national average. What’s not to love about living here? Government expansion, that’s what. The state has a responsibility to expand the infrastructure to accommodate this new growth, which means that it may want to build a highway on part of your family’s property. What then?
If the government can prove that it needs your property for the good of the public, it may be able to do so. We are here to help you put up a good fight and defend your interests.
Eminent domain – along with a wide range of business litigation issues – is getting more complex in Minnesota. If a case should go to trial, then we will take it to trial. If we consider it in your best interests to recommend settlement, then we will do so. Everything we do is intended to advance your interests while helping you evaluate the costs, benefits and risks of litigation.
