Civil Litigation Practice Areas

I represent individuals and businesses in complex civil litigation matters, with a focus on delivering effective, results-driven solutions in the following areas:

Business Disputes

Business conflicts can disrupt operations, harm reputations, and strain valuable relationships. I work closely with business owners, partners, and corporate entities to resolve disputes including:

  • Breach of partnership or shareholder agreements

  • Breach of fiduciary duty claims

  • Fraud and misrepresentation

  • Disputes involving unfair competition or business practices

My approach emphasizes strategic resolution through negotiation and mediation wherever possible but includes aggressive advocacy in court when necessary.

Defamation

False and harmful statements can cause serious reputational and financial harm. I represent individuals and businesses in defamation cases, including libel and slander, to protect your reputation and pursue damages for harm caused by defamatory statements. I focus on crafting clear strategies to hold the responsible parties accountable while seeking the most effective resolution.

Estate, Probate, and Trust Disputes

Conflicts involving estates, trusts, and probate can be deeply personal and legally complex. I represent beneficiaries, executors, trustees, and heirs in resolving issues including:

  • Elder financial abuse including claims of fraud (deceptive practices by those in a position of trust) and breach of fiduciary duty (allegations of mismanagement or misconduct by executors or trustees in handling estate or trust assets).

  • Contested wills

  • Breach of fiduciary duty by executors or trustees

  • Fraud

  • Inheritance disputes

  • Trust modification or termination actions

  • Real property conflicts

With a dedication to protecting your interests, I help clients navigate these sensitive disputes while working toward efficient and fair resolutions.

Contract Disputes

Contracts form the backbone of business and personal relationships, and disputes can arise when terms are breached or misunderstood. I provide strategic representation in matters including:

  • Breach of business and corporate agreements

  • Service and vendor contracts

  • Residential and commercial real estate purchase agreements

Whether resolving these disputes through negotiation or litigation, my focus is on achieving practical solutions aligned with your goals.

Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) Claims

Errors or violations in credit reporting can have serious consequences on your financial well-being and reputation. I represent individuals in Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) claims, holding credit reporting agencies and creditors accountable for inaccuracies or improper practices.

Appeals

When a trial court decision does not align with the facts or law, I provide strategic representation for appeals. I leverage strong research, writing, and analytical skills to craft compelling arguments and advocate for my clients in Minnesota appellate courts.
