Starting a business requires the right legal foundation. We help entrepreneurs, farmers and professionals choose the right entity structure and handle all formation requirements including LLCs, corporations, partnerships, operating agreements and buy-sell agreements.
When disputes arise that can’t be resolved through negotiation, our litigation team provides aggressive, effective representation. We handle a wide range of civil disputes including contract disputes, business litigation, property disputes and collections matters.
When you’re facing criminal charges, the stakes couldn’t be higher. Our experienced criminal defense attorneys have decades of experience representing clients facing DUI/DWI, drug charges, assault, theft, sex offenses and more. We know the courts, we know the prosecutors and we know how to build effective defense strategies throughout Southern Minnesota.
Family law matters are deeply personal. If you are dealing with a divorce, custody dispute or other family matter, our attorneys combine legal expertise with genuine compassion to help you navigate these challenges while protecting your rights and your family’s interests.
Your estate plan determines how your assets will be distributed, who will care for your minor children and how your wishes will be carried out. We help families create comprehensive estate plans including wills, trusts, powers of attorney, healthcare directives and probate administration that provide confidence and protect what matters most under Minnesota law.
Whether you need to restore your gun rights after a conviction, are facing weapons charges, need help understanding Minnesota’s firearms laws or want to pursue an expungement, our attorneys are dedicated advocates for your Second Amendment rights and your clean record.
We represent landlords in eviction proceedings, lease disputes, security deposit claims and property damage recovery throughout Southern Minnesota. Our attorneys act quickly to protect your property investment and enforce your rights as a property owner. We do not represent tenants.
When carelessness or reckless behavior causes serious injury, you deserve an attorney who will fight for full and fair compensation. We handle personal injury matters on a co-counsel or joint representation basis with experienced PI trial attorneys, combining our local knowledge with specialized trial expertise.
Whether you’re buying your first home, selling a family farm or investing in commercial property, real estate transactions involve significant financial commitments.
