Excellent Attorney

I was injured at work and dealt with multiple issues with my employer/ insurance adjusters. Jerry Sisk is very experienced in worker compensation matters. Jerry is easy to talk to, shows empathy, listens and explains your questions or concerns in a very professional manner. Jerry is great to work w...ith and is always available to talk when needed. Jerry has compassion for his work and it shows with how he helps ease any stress or anxiety that comes with the territory. I would definitely recommend Jerry to everyone!

Working with Jerry

I must admit, at the beginning of this endeavor I was extremely nervous and worried. When my injury happened I had no idea what to expect for the future or even what steps to take. I called Jerry's office and briefly explained my situation to his paralegal and she scheduled a phone consultation the ...following day with Jerry. As soon as I got on the phone with him, he immediately put me at ease by explaining the ins and outs of these types of cases and a basic what to expect, in a way that I could readily understand. To be honest, working with jerry was as easy as signing a few documents, answering a few phone calls, and going to my appointments. And to be completely honest i cant imagine a better way to get through a situation like that. I guess my favorite part about working with Jerry and his staff was the fact that I was treated like a personal friend rather than a client. I always felt like they kept my best interests in mind, and that is important to me. Or to anyone who is struggling with an injury that keeps them from working. Jerry is one heck of an attorney, but he was generally just a good guy and I am very lucky to have worked him. Thank you Mr. Sisk, my family and I are eternally grateful for your hard work and your dedication.

Great Lawyer

Mr. Sisk took our case a few years ago not long after my wife was in a serious accident. Her employer's insurance took insolvency and the employer was resolved to be no help at all. Despite the extremely out of the ordinary nature of our case, and regardless of impediments and hurdles, he has relentl...essly fought for what was right on our behalf and been very successful doing so. Still today he continues to stand for us and what rightfully should be done. I simply can't thank him enough. In troubled times this is the guy you want in your corner.

Workers compensation lawyer | Oct 03

Relationship: Supervised lawyer

"Jerry Sisk is an excellent workers’ compensation attorney. Bright, energetic and talented – he possesses the willingness to try cases when necessary- balanced by the discernment to resolve disputes amicably where appropriate. Guided by a good moral compass and possessing a solid set of technical skills, Jerry provides superb representation for his clients. Jerry possesses an able grasp of the intricacies of the complex Minnesota Workers’ Compensation law. Before coming to work at the Law Office of Thomas D. Mottaz, he spent 5 years working at the premier St. Paul insurance defense firm of Heacox and Hartman. There he learned the nuts and bolts of defending a case. This tutelage prepared him well for his position. In addition to providing zealous and capable representation to his clients, Jerry also presents at various seminars and he periodically writes for local legal publications. Jerry is also very active in the local bar association. As such, I highly recommend him."
