Dedicated to providing exceptional legal services to our valued clients.
In 2009, I opened my own law firm in my home town of Kenyon, Minnesota, a small community about an hour south of the Twin Cities Metropolitan area. Practicing law in a small community afforded me the opportunity to handle a wide vareity of legal issues for clients. In the fall of 2011, I joined up with Steve Jorstad and Mike Hero to form our current law firm located in Northfield with offices in Kenyon and Wanamingo.
I am passionate about providing my clients with honest and quality legal representation no matter the size of their legal matter.
