Marit Marie Sivertson

I recently had to use Ms. Sivertson services to prepare a written response to allegations contained in the Notice of Conference from the Minnesota Board of Nursing. Marit assisted me in a cost-effective and efficient manner. She was knowledgeable and well experienced and it showed as all my allegati...ons were dismissed. I am pleased with my decision to have her as a lawyer. Thank you Marit!

Marit Sivertson was an attorney that I contacted BEFORE getting my nursing license as I had received a notice of conference contesting some of the information on my application. I spoke with her for almost an hour and she reviewed many aspects of my upcoming conference and how the Board would pick ap...art my case. She gave the advice free of charge and didn't pressure me to hire her even once. I wish I had hired her immediately then because my hearing with the Board led to a complicated Stipulation and Consent Order and I immediately knew to call Marit once again and this time to hire her to represent me. From the minute I asked for her help (even before receiving the retainer), I knew Marit was working hard on my side to protect me from any potential damage to my future career in nursing. Marit has been a phone call, email, or text away this entire time day and night. She is thoroughly versed on not only the staff at the Board of Nursing but she understands the road map with which the Board uses to navigate the course of licensure, relicensure, and everything between the initial notification from the Board to the final decision from the Board regarding each case. I absolutely, wholeheartedly recommend Marit to any nurse or potential nurse that has to communicate with the Board of nursing. I would also recommend that you trust her throughout the process - she is kind and thorough but she is also extremely tough with the Board and ensuring you are 100% represented throughout your process.

I have been a nurse for over ten years had a great career. Recently I was notified by the MN BON on two separate occasions that my license was in jeopardy. The first case I thought to myself you know what I am innocent and I am just going to go in there and tell the truth. I thought I could save mone...y represent myself and just tell the truth how could I go wrong? When I went in front of the board they absolutely tore my license apart. I am on several restrictions and not able to practice like I used to. My second case I called Marit and was again up against some serious charges. From the minute I got off the phone with her I knew I had made the right choice. She walked me through the whole process. I honestly did not worry about a thing and when the conference came she sat right next to me and it's like I was instantly given this respect that I was not given the last time. Things went very different and my case was actually dismissed. If I could do one thing over in my life I would go back in time and hire Marit the first time I received a letter from the MN board of nursing. Words cannot even begin to explain how strongly I feel Marit can make a difference for you when dealing with the board.
