Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community
I endorse this lawyer. I have known Kathy for nearly 20 years as an opponent on both the defense and petitioners side of the law. She is a zealous advocate for her clients regardless of whether she is representing and employer/insurer or an injured worker. She is intelligent, aggressive and knowledgeable about the field of Minnesota workers compensation.
