Paul is a trial lawyer. He defends and prosecutes cases for people and businesses. In 2016, Paul was named “Attorney of the Year” by Minnesota Lawyer for his work on a highly-publicized, free speech case. He represented a high school student who was unconstitutionally expelled for responding to a post on Twitter about his gym teacher. The case settled for $425,000.. Paul has obtained other large settlements and jury acquittals—sometimes for the same client in related cases. For example, Paul defended a young man shot by a police officer three times in the back. The State charged Paul’s client with first-degree assault to cover up the police shooting. Paul convinced a jury to acquit his client, saving him from at least ten years in prison. Paul and his partners then sued the police officer for excessive force. The case settled for $2.85 million.. Paul also represents businesses. He was an integral part of a team which aggressively and successfully defended a national paving contractor from claims of racketeering, anti-trust, fraud and breach of contract brought by a multi-national corporation. Paul enjoys prosecuting breach of contract and wrongful termination cases for sales representatives and wholesalers against manufacturers.. Paul attended law school at the University of Minnesota, where he graduated magna cum laude. He is now an Adjunct Law Professor for the school’s civil rights moot court program. He has won numerous awards for his legal writing.. Prior to law school, Paul was a financial analyst and a firefighter. While handling emergencies for the public, Paul learned to think fast on his feet and remain level-headed during tense circumstances—skills that prepared him well for the courtroom.. In addition to “Attorney of Year,” Paul was named “Rising Star” by Super Lawyers in 2017 and 2018. In 2018, he was also featured in the “Next Generation” issue of the Attorney at Law magazine.

Practice Areas: Personal Injury
I have helped injured people and their families throughout Minnesota and Wisconsin for over 30 years. When you've been hurt, medical bills pile up and your wages are either reduced or eliminated as you recover from your injuries. If you've lost a loved one their wages, care, comfort and support are lost forever. I make sure you and your family are fairly compensated for the injuries you've suffered. It has been my privilege to help families through the toughest times and to help get them back on their feet.. I grew up in the Mississippi River Valley in Southeastern Minnesota before heading east to the Ivy League’s Dartmouth College. While at Dartmouth I was an English major and ran the Dartmouth Big Brothers/Big Sisters Program. My senior year was spent in the Honors English Program at London’s University College, and I graduated from Dartmouth in 1982. I earned my law degree from the University of Notre Dame Law School in 1985. While at Notre Dame I interned with the National Institute for Trial Advocacy (NITA), and while still in law school, I was chosen as one of two law clerks to assist Robert Kutak as he re-wrote the American Bar Association’s Code of Professional Responsibility.. Following graduation, I joined Minnesota’s premier trial law firm, Robins, Kaplan, Miller and Ciresi in Minneapolis. While at Robins I handled cases all over the country involving catastrophic property losses from fires and building collapses to environmental pollution cases and bankruptcy claims.. After returning to Winona, I established Brosnahan Law Firm, P.A. in 1992, dedicated to helping injured people and their families. While in Winona I have represented over a thousand injured people or families who lost loved ones. Our clients have included several lawyers, judges, insurance adjusters and police and sheriff's deputies who were injured themselves or who asked me to represent thier family members who were injured or killed in auto and cycle crashes. I am flattered and proud that so many people who understand injury and death cases have chosen me to represent them and those they love. I'd be happy to help you too.
