About Sarah
Biography
I am engaged in the general practice of all aspects of civil litigation with a primary focus on employment law litigation in federal and state courts, including discrimination, harassment, retaliation, vicarious liability, whistleblower claims, negligence, breach of fiduciary duty, tortious interference with business claims, and contractual disputes.
I am admitted to practice in the State of Minnesota and am a Qualified Neutral in Civil Alternative Dispute Resolution. I am a member of the Warren E. Burger Inn of Court and an active member of the Minnesota State and Ramsey County Bar Associations. I am a Super Lawyer in Employment and Labor law.
Prior to earning my law degree, I was a Buyer for Target Corporation responsible for the development, cost negotiations, and overall financial performance of my category assortments nationwide.

Very professional regardless of she takes the case
I felt she was knowledgeable, understanding and appeared to take me seriously. I don’t know if she will take the case yet but I am hopeful.
