Highly Recommended!

I was referred to Frank from a reputable friend for a divorce. Still, I was hesitant. I anticipated a robotic experience with a lawyer. He was professional and sincerely interested in how this would impact my six year old and educated me in the rights I had in the process. Frank let me take the time ...I needed to trust him and he advocated for me in the process. I highly recommend using his services.

Highly recommended!

I've known Mr. Abramson as a fellow lawyer for over 15 years. He's smart, experienced, trustworthy and compassionate. I would unhesitatingly recommend his services to anyone.

Talented attorney

We have asked Frank for help on some personal and business issues. He is knowledgeable and trustworthy. He will refer to another lawyer if the questions are not in his areas of practice. We recommend Frank without reservation.

Employment and labor lawyer | Nov 30

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"I first met Frank when I needed an attorney to review my own separation agreement due to a major layoff. Frank went through the document step by step, answering each of my questions. Subsequently, I served as an Adjunct Professor at Augsburg College, teaching Business Law. Frank graciously came to my class and provided insight to the students about employment law issues. I strongly recommend Frank. He provides excellent legal advice and, given his mediation background, seeks to find ways to solve problems by seeking alternatives to litigation when appropriate."

Mediation lawyer | Nov 19

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"I fully endorse Frank as an outstanding attorney in practice areas, including but not limited to, family law and personal injury law, as well as an excellent choice as a neutral third party mediator. I've known Frank as a close friend and colleague, and we were undergraduate and law school classmates. He is one of the most caring people I've ever known, both professionally and personally. In addition to his busy practice, he finds time for many pro bono and charitable pursuits."
