I'd recommend Pat & team to anyone considering legal help.

I needed to put my brother's estate into a living trust quickly. He got very sick and we had found…read moreout that his will would have to go through probate, which costs more and takes longer. I found Metropolitan Law Group on line and they were so helpful and compassionate from the get go. Barbara Connelly communicated constantly with me and guided me through the whole process. She always checked in on how I was doing and always asked how my brother was doing. His health was declining rapidly and I had to fly back to DC. I contacted them on a Thursday and they squeezed me in for a Zoom call Monday morning with the owner, Lisa Haster. Lisa was very easy to talk to and very kind to my brother. She was very expeditious and got the information she needed and we were done within 15 minutes. Jodi Dybsetter, the paralegal, got all of the forms sent to me quickly and I was able to print them out at UPS. I was able to get a notary Tuesday morning to my brother's hospital room and we made everything official. I scanned it back to Jodi and they were able to get everything recorded by Wednesday. Even though business is concluded, Barbara still checks in. Outstanding customer service and compassionate people. I highly recommend Metropolitan Law Group and Barbara Connelly.

She was very accommodating and while she is not a marriage counselor (nor should she be) she did give us space to make decisions as a couple and as individuals. She also provided some great examples of what other clients have done to help us formulate our own plan - that's what you get when you work with someone who has experience! I would and have recommended her to friends and family.

During our very first meeting, Attorney Gislason asked me to write down three possible outcomes I…read morewanted for my child custody case. My answers were simple: 1. I want to return to Liberia with my child. 2. I want to return to Liberia with my child. 3. I want to return to Liberia with my child. There was no Plan B. There was no compromise. As simple as those answers look, this was no ordinary custody case. It was a complex INTERNATIONAL FAMILY LAW case. As an international student in the United States, a single mother, and someone fighting one of the most painful and unexpected battles of my life, my only prayer was to graduate and return home with my daughter. Attorney Gislason fought for us with everything she had. She was brilliant, strategic, meticulous, and fierce. My sister and I jokingly called her "Judge Judy." She could scold me one minute and have me laughing the next. She challenged me, kept me grounded, and constantly reminded me to focus on my child and nothing else. This came with interruptions to prevent circumvention because she wanted results. Looking back, I needed exactly that. On one particularly difficult day, when I could barely stop crying, she told me to call my pastor to pray for me because she couldn't bear to hear me lose hope. That moment reminded me that she wasn't just fighting my case, she was also protecting my spirit. She became my attorney, and, in many ways, my anchor. One moment I will never forget was when she was on a work trip in Scotland. Despite being thousands of miles away, she remained fully engaged and made herself available to ensure my daughter's safety on the fateful day. That level of commitment doesn't come from someone simply doing a job. It comes from someone who genuinely cares. Because of her dedication and persistence, the court upheld my child's best interests, and every day I get to spend with her is a gift that Attorney Gislason helped make possible. Surprisingly, our relationship did not end when the case was over. Atty. Gislason celebrated one of the happiest moments of my life by attending my graduate school graduation, bringing thoughtful gifts, and taking my child and me to dinner before we departed the US in celebration of everything we had overcome together. That act of kindness spoke volumes about the kind of person she is. Behind her fierce courtroom presence is a woman with an incredibly generous heart. There are attorneys who know the law, and then there are attorneys who change lives. Attorney Gislason changed mine! If you are looking for someone who is exceptionally skilled, relentless, and invested in her clients, I recommend Attorney Gislason without hesitation. My daughter and I will forever be grateful for everything she did for our family. Attorney Gislason, if you're reading this, thank you. Thank you for believing in us, for fighting for us, and for helping write one of the most beautiful chapters of our story. We will never forget you. Thanks also to Stephanie for her dedication.

Michael was always the first person I saw when I was at my lowest.No matter what was going on I could always count on him to show up and be there for me. He never judged me or looked down on me .His first words were always ,"How you holding up" and " Let's get you out of here". His knowledge and experience are matched by no one in the Judicial System. Even when I was facing some pretty serious charges I always felt at ease in the courtroom because of his presence and overall demeanor. He represents and treats his clients like they are family , fighting tooth and nail for them . Excepting nothing but the very best outcome for his clients. I've put my troubled past behind me but I know with absolute certainty that without Michael Brandt representing me , I would not be here today to write this review.

Denise is an absolutely fantastic attorney to help with injury cases. I had a very complex case and…read moreit simply would not have been closed without Denise, despite there being 4 other parties with lawyers involved. I was part of a group of 12 people on a peddle pub hit by a drunk driver. 3 of the people injured, including myself, filed claims with the driver's insurance. Additionally, workers comp and our respective health insurance were involved, as they were also entitled to the driver's insurance funds. Denise was on the case for 2 years, working with all the parties to coordinate payments I was entitled to. Without Denise, this case simply would still be lingering. I particularly like Denise because of her high level of integrity. We were both aligned that we were not looking for a pay day, but rather just working through the complex process and negotiations to get the case closed with a fair portion of the insurance claim. Denise is very transparent about how the process works and always made sure I understood what was happening. I also very much appreciated Denise's persistence for over two years to close out the case. When all the other party lawyers were happy to sit and wait, Denise kept things moving and ultimately coordinated the mediation that closed the case for all parties involved. Lastly, Denise is very knowledgeable of MN laws governing injury cases and skilled at utilizing them to make her client's case. She utilized her experience to quickly address roadblocks that seemed to stop the other parties from progressing. I highly recommend Denise for anyone in need of representation for a motor accident.

We've used Romer & Co as our accountants for more than 3 decades. It is a superb accountancy…read more They've handled both our personal taxes (which have been quite complex at times), and all the financials for 2 of our small companies, a boat charter on Lake Superior and a global consultancy. See what I mean about complex? Yet they have done everything efficiently and quickly. In addition to doing great work, the folks at Romer are just plain nice - not "Minnesota nice" but really, truly nice. Monica who mans the phones always is pleasant (unlike so many folks!) and ready to help in whatever way she can. Karen is a lovely woman too. I don't know the other folks at the company, but I'm pretty sure they're nice too. In short, we've been very pleased with our working relationship with this fine company. They handle things so well and so fast. And they're great to work with too. Thanks, Romer & Co!

My husband has been an attorney since 1975. He has been an Assist. DA in Brooklyn, an SEC…read moreinvestigator for the NYC office, a senior litigator for one of the largest Wall Street firms and then general counsel at a regional securities firm years ago. So we are very careful where we seek legal advice and go professional contact/ referrals all the way . I am very very lucky to have this. We were introduced to Bill Michelson JUST as my husband was recovering from 5 major huge surgeries . My husband had been so ill that we had almost zero income the entire 13 months of his non stop major operations. Mn even gave us food stamps fuel assistance that year! Huge blessing to have received! ( thank God he is fine now). He also lost his mom and brother in the middle of all this and was on strictly monitored major pain killers for 9 of those months. So my husband was "not totally mentally cognizant " in monitoring detailed projects during this time ( 5 rounds of anesthesia " stay in your system a good 12 months" said his back fusion/ diskectomy surgeon. SO... We were a very vulnerable scared couple when we walked in. ( almost all our bills were up to date-- he told us to stop paying everyone that first meeting ) First, Bill was a total stranger to us. My husband has never met him before, and we paid him fairly honestly like all clients He put us IMMEDIATELY at ease and gave us MASSIVE relief when he said that first meeting ," don't worry.... Your terrible physical and economic situation totally understandable after all these surgeries places you in a good situation... I can definitely talk to all your creditors, explain your dire situation today... And there is a good chance we can not only get them to work with us favorably , but I am confident I can get them to cooperate with us And have them lower your debt as well ." I have these as notes from my meeting . You have NO idea the massive waves of relief that rushed through us after hearing those words . So we automatically trusted him 100 % on the spot primarily from the referral and from his wonderous words . Why wouldn't we ??!! I immediately started the 2 years of repairing painting the house then finally packing and moving in December 2015. I left all the legal " mumbo-jumbo" to my husband. 18 months later when our house would not sell and it became upside down/ short sale , Bill found us an excellent realtor of short sales and was our closing attorney as well! We met with him a few times but worked primarily via phone (note: every minute on the phone the attorney's $ meter is ticking) I believe we paid him $10,000+ approx ( I found all bill's letters in my husbands desk... Unopened. Bill would call him tell him what we owed, Jon would pay.) Late August September 2015 we met with Bill. He said," I did not work on your debt overall... I did not want to do anything negative to your credit that would adversely affect the sale of your house (accepted an offer late October 2015)." I just listened nodded had no idea in general what was going on-- I had been feverishly packing . ... But we met with him a GOOD year before putting the house on the market......why didn't you call our creditors asap? We were up to date on many, not all. He DID work on just one debt (Winter 2016) with one creditor (they had filed a formal law suit against us) and negotiated them down 1/4-1/3. We met this spring 2016 and I mentioned to him that we were thinking of meeting with Lutheran Family Svces for in-depth financial guidance. He IMMEDIATELY was agitated excited raised his voice ( 1st time ever ) and said, " don't do that! You don't need them you have me." To make a long story short: we DID go to Lutheran Family Svces on Park ave in Minneapolis and got OUTSTANDING advice!!! We also learned from them that Bill had DONE ZERO... that ALL our DEBT was now 100 % charged out!! Zero negotiations zero reduction of debt. Zero promises . We were in TOTAL shock...... This has put us in very grave circumstances. And Lutheran Family Svces could do nothing to help nor save us... Toooo late...... I did indeed call him about a week later, late at night. and left a message stating that Lutheran Family Services offers outstanding assistance-- exactly the kind of guidance I had been fiercely looking for five years.... that they were NO threat to his work for our amt of debt was too high. I did end by saying honestly that he should have guided us to them years ago, for they could have greatly helped us....AND I let him know I was VERY very angry. He IMMEDIATELY dropped us. Lutheran Family Services is the BEST place to start. Go call make an appointment WAY before you get behind in your bills. They are a non-profit organization that has helped Minnesota individuals and families for years and years... for free. We shall survive, but avoid offers of " loan consolidation"!!!
