Jodi Jane See

I started out working for 10 years as a paralegal in Mankato after attending Mankato State University (now Minnesota State at Mankato) and then went back to law school at William Mitchell, graduating from MSU and William Mitchell with honors.  After working while in law school at the Office of Administrative Hearings as a law clerk for the Worker's Compensation Court of Appeals, Southern MN Legal Services, the Attorney General's Office in the licensing division and for two law firms in the metro area, in 1999 I opened my own business in Prior Lake to be closer to my family.  I have been in the same location since then.  By being close to my home and business, I can be active in my community through organizations, my church, volunteerism and participation in my son's school activities.  I am married with two sons, one that is an adult and one still in middle school.  In addition, I am a licensed foster parent and have been for 13 years.  I work with Crisis Nursery at the CAP agency, do respite foster care and have done long term foster care for many children from birth to adults over the years.  I am an avid gardener, love to fish (and have been a member of the Southern MN Women Anglers for over 30 years) and enjoy many outdoor activities like 4-wheeling, cross country skiing, kayaking, hiking and biking.  My Assistant Lorraine Bessermin assists me in my business to represent our clients with zealous advocacy, competence and excellence in the practice areas we serve and strive to be accessible and compassionate to our clients' needs.
