Itasca County Social Security Disability Lawyers

Putting our experience to work for the injured in workers compensation, personal injury and social security disability matters.

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.
