Laura M. Coss

Attorney Laura Coss grew up in Cannon Falls, a small town in southern Minnesota. She moved to River Falls in 1997, where she still resides today. She went to college and law school at Notre Dame. While in school, she volunteered at several non-profit organizations focused on helping those in need including the South Bend Housing Authority and Indiana Legal Servies. She also spent a summer abroad in London learning how the English legal system has impacted the American legal system.

Following law school, Attorney Coss clerked in Ramsey County, worked as a general practice attorney at a firm in Minneapolis, was sole general counsel for an equestrian boarding/training facility and volunteered as a criminal defense attorney before joining the Anoka County Attorney’s Office in 2012. This wide range of experience has allowed her to practice almost every area of the law at some point in her career, but criminal law remains to be her passion. Attorney Coss strongly believes every client deserves to have someone in their corner who will continue to fight for them, especially when a legal matter becomes overwhelming.

In her free time, Laura is either watching college football, spending time with her dogs or competing at horse shows across the country.
