Great attorney
Can't say enough about Mrs. Hill. I retained her for a custody hearing 2 weeks before the hearing and she was fantastic. I have had couple of attorney’s, but not one as professional, caring and sharp as Stephanie. Do yourself a favor and call her first, she will not let you down.

"I worked with Stephanie on a recent divorce. Her client was struggling with the concept of being divorced and letting go of the relationship, which made it difficult for him to work through the financial aspects of the divorce. Stephanie worked with him well, ensuring that he properly understood everything we were agreeing to, while be understanding of his reluctance to participate. She did great advocating for her client even when he wasn't ready to participate himself."
"Stephanie is a sharp attorney that is fiercely committed to obtaining the best possible results for her clients."
"Stephanie is a good advocate for her client, yet remains committed to productive and reasonable settlement discussions."
"I endorse this lawyer, she is one of the most hardworking, diligent and detail orientated lawyers in the State of Minnesota. I have worked with her for quite some time and I find her immensely qualified."
"I endorse this lawyer. Stephanie is bright and enthusiastic family law advocate. She is extremely adept at collaboration and low conflict dissolutions. I strongly endorse this lawyer."
