Michael Klemm Bio
I am a real estate attorney at Hellmuth & Johnson. I help people when they need a real estate specialist to guide them through the complex issues that are involved when they purchase, sell, lease, finance or improve real estate.  My clients include real estate developers, residential and commercial builders, business owners, community banks and associations.. Real estate owners and developers benefit from my experience on the other side of the table in land use regulation matters. Prior to joining Hellmuth & Johnson, I represented several Minnesota cities and worked closely with city planners and engineers regarding zoning, subdivision and development. I also served as chairman of several municipal boards and commissions, including a planning commission, board of adjustment and appeals, and environmental advisory committee.. I have represented clients in hundreds of real estate transactions, including residential and commercial purchases and sales, leases, easements and financing. I achieved board certification as a Real Property Law Specialist from the Minnesota State Bar Association in 2006, and I was recognized on the Minnesota Rising Stars list by Magazine and Twin Cities Business every year from 2008 through 2013.My work in the area of common interest communities includes advising developers regarding creation of condominiums, mixed-use developments and master-planned communities; drafting and amending governing documents; and general representation of homeowners associations. I am a past president of the Minnesota Chapter of Community Associations Institute, and I serve on legislative committees that influence community association law at the state capitol.
