Taunton Lawyers

Before starting my own law firm, I worked for law firms in New York City. I represented people and businesses in lawsuits in court. Other clients needed help with transactions for themselves or their businesses. Some of my favorite clients were young families and small business owners and working with them inspired me to start my own law firm in 2011.

WHAT I LEARNED

Starting my own business helped me understand the challenges and opportunities that confront business owners at all stages of their entrepreneurial journeys. I was immediately amazed at the creative and innovative ways that these businesses worked with their...

I handle all types of Minnesota workers compensation claims along with personal injury cases and social security disability. I do not recover unless you recover. Insurance companies try to pay as little as possible for your claims. As such, you need someone experienced and knowledgeable to fight for the benefits you deserve. Since 2003 I have been practicing as a Minnesota workers compensation attorney. Feel free to contact me for a free initial consultation.

I represent individuals that have been harmed by the wrongdoing of others. I have taken many cases to trial and have an exceptionally high success rate. Outside of practicing law, I coach Special Olympics, play baseball, and enjoy traveling.

I represent clients in a wide variety of labor & employment law, civil rights, and nonprofit law matters in Minnesota and across the Midwest. My work includes litigating client cases involving: * Contract claims * Whistleblower or other retaliation claims * Pay claims * Harassment claims * False Claims Act or other fraud claims * Leave claims * Non-compete claims * Fiduciary duty claims * Mass layoff claims * Unfair business practice claims * Discrimination claims * Benefits claims * Constitutional claims In addition to providing responsive, principled, and effective representation to clients regarding their claims, I develop the law in the public interest as amicus curiae counsel in high-profile cases.
