Up & Coming Attorneys, Unsung Legal Heroes announced

Each year Minnesota Lawyer recognizes a group of new attorneys off to a fast start in their legal careers and legal professionals making impacts within the companies and communities they serve.

This year we are very pleased to announce the 2023 Up & Coming Attorneys and Unsung Legal Heroes.

The Up & Coming Attorneys represent employers and employees in a rapidly changing legal environment. They represent immigrants and veterans, the injured and the debtors, and the entrepreneurs and businesses that keep our economy buzzing. All of the Up & Coming Attorneys honorees are in their first decade of practice.

The Unsung Legal Heroes play a critical role in making the lawyers look good in court and the offices looking good all the time. They are important to their colleagues, their clients and their communities. The Unsung Heroes work behind the scenes to ensure the work gets done efficiently and accurately.

Congratulations to the 2023 Up & Coming Attorneys and Unsung Legal Heroes.
