Knowledgeable , Compassionate Lawyer

I retained Joel and was very pleased with his professionalism, knowledge and most of all his compassion and empathy towards my situation. I appreciated his hard work and communication along with his legal assistant Jessie who was on point with getting me any legal paperwork / information out to me. ...This first time experience in my life was and still is extremely hard on me, but knowing he was in my corner, fighting for me and guiding me every step of the way was very much appreciated. Thank You!!

Highly recommend

Hired Joel to help with an OWI offense and he was very informative and professional. Joel answered all my questions and delivered results that where better than I could have hoped for. He worked with the DA and judge to reduce the offenses to the least damaging. Thanks Joel

Highly recommend

Joel and his legal assistant, Jessie, were amazing. They were responsive in a timely manner and super helpful throughout this process. Joel throughly explained what was needed every step of the way and remained respectful and non-judgmental. Highly recommend!

Client

I was referred to Mudge, Porter, Lundeen & Seguin by an Attorney in Stillwater, MN, Eric Thole. his recommendation was to speak with Mr. Lundeen who, at the time of my offense was out of town. In Mr. Lundeens absence Joel was very prompt to reach out to me. We spoke briefly about my situation and... he was a great listener and made me feel at ease at a very difficult time. I liked him immediately. We later met in person to hash out the details and felt even more comfortable at which time we decided to work together and I hired him. Since then Joel has followed thru on all aspects of my case and I’m sure he went above and beyond on some of the details. He represented himself in a very professional manner, and at the same time kept it real as a regular good guy. Someone for sure who understands the Law and the predicament I was in personally. On my part there was never any confusion as to where things stood with my case and he had all the answers to the many questions I threw his way. On my sentencing hearing he represented me in a way that I always knew I was in great hands with him as my attorney. And, he even gave me a lift in his vehicle, (I couldn’t get myself there, no license) to make sure I appeared in court and on time. Again, over and above what he needed to do. The outcome of my case worked out much better than the punishment I was being charged with due to Joel and his professionalism. Thanks Joel. Should I ever require Joel’s services in the future, (hope I never do) he would be my first call. Thanks to Joel, I’m able to right some wrongs in my life and live a solid and productive existence. He’s a Badass dude and an excellent attorney. Thanks again Joel.
