In 2001 I began practicing family law in outstate Minnesota where I learned that family values are universal, and that regardless of the conflict we are presented with in family law matters, at the core, we are all motivated by a desire to ensure that our loved ones are cared for and provided for. I am reminded of this each time I represent a client in a family dispute, and more often than not, toward a permanent and workable resolution. I have been blessed by having had the opportunity to represent families in thousands of disputes of all varieties.  I would be honored to speak with you about your situation and how I might help.

I've been in private practice since 1995 and provide representation in Minnesota, Iowa or where needed. My current focus is in the areas of railroad law, construction law, envrionmental and land use law, and related regulations in all those areas.

I knew I wanted to be a lawyer since I was in grade school.  All I really knew about lawyers back then, though, was what I saw on L.A. Law.  When I entered college at St. Olaf, a liberal arts school, I did so with an open mind.  If another discipline piqued my interest more than law, I would pursue that.  Nothing ever did.  My constitiutional law classes in college cemented my decision to go to law school.. It was in law school at William Mitchell that I first became aware of family law.  It never occured to me that there was so much law - and so many rules - that applied to people going through a divorce.  Clerking for a Judge right out of law school, I saw first hand how much of an impact the lawyering can have on the results of family law cases.  That inspired me to pursue a career helping people in family law.. Outside of the office, I am a sports nut.  I curl in the winter (think rocks on ice) and I play softball in the summer months.   I am also a music lover.  I enjoy classic rock (especially Lynyrd Skynyrd - I've been to 20 concerts or so) and I play trombone in my church's brass choir.  I also enjoy traveling with my wife and two sons.

My greatest successes have come through satisfied clients and referrals from fellow attorneys. After reading the information on my web site please contact me for assistance on your legal matters.
