The Journey

As an entrepreneur, I have iterated a lot over my legal career. With that experience, I can truly appreciate the journey that small business owners go on. One of the main questions that many a Minnesota small business owner asks is: why should I hire a lawyer?

In a world where you can crank out an agreement using ChatGPT, a lawyer may seem like an unnecessary cost. But a lawyer brings much more to your business than document generation. Here are the top five reasons to hire an attorney in Minnesota:

  1. Working with a lawyer can be a collaborative and enjoyable experience. I work to create genuine delight as we work together to meet your legal needs and to align with your values as a business owner.

  2. I’ve seen some things. Throughout my career I’ve seen the outcomes of what happens when small business owners DIY their own legal structure, agreements, and contracts. A licensed lawyer brings experience, vision, and clarity and can discern how to deploy that for your needs.

  3. I can help you decide between what is nice to have and what is needed. You don’t want to miss something that is necessary because you focus on something that is nice to have.

  4. I’ll be honest and not BS you. Here is the deal - telling you what you want to hear isn’t kind. I want to empower clients to make informed decisions. I see the whole person and the practical business implications of making a legal decision. I share that with you. There is no hiding the ball or gatekeeping.

  5. I love to build. I take a creative approach to helping you establish, grow, and build your business whatever that means for you. I an genuinely invested in your success and vision.
