About Robert
Biography
I have a simple mission. Do the best legal work I can, for every person, every single day.
I don't believe in lofty promises or salesman-like tricks. My mentor taught me to practice law the old fashioned way. Listen to your client. Build a case. Attempt to settle. And then, if all else fails, work your tail-off to beat the other side.
If you haven't guessed, I can be blunt. Some people take it personally. You shouldn't. My job is to protect your backside. Anyone who gets in the way will frustrate me -- even if it's you.
I went to school at The University of Iowa Law School. Finished in a good spot. I have worked for big and small firms. I only like representing people.
In 2014, 2015, and 2016, I received Client Distinction / Client Rating awards from Martindale-Hubbell.
I am a member of The National Advocates 2016 Top 100 Lawyers in family law.
In 2016 and 2017, I was named one of Minnesota's Top 10 attorneys in client satisfaction by the American Institute of Family Law Attorneys.
In 2017, I was recognized as a Distinguished Lawyer by the Expert Network.

Simply the best attorney!
Robert Gadtke truly is one of, if not the best, the most professional and intelligent attorneys in the Twin Cities. I knew from the moment we met I could completely trust him, and that feeling only grew stronger as we worked on my case. He always kept me strong and focused in the right direction at a...
