Early in her career, Lucere Legal’s founding partner Kimberly M.

Established in 2017, the six-attorney St. Louis Park firm strives to build an “ongoing relationship” with each of their small-business and estate-planning clients.
“We aren’t interested in drafting your documents and then hanging you out to dry,” their website tells potential clients. “We want to be your lawyers for life.”
The firm helps small businesses get started, assists them in real estate dealings and probate administration, represents them in lawsuits, and helps them comply with regulations.
The firm also offers flexibility for its attorneys to focus on life outside of work, “making it possible for talented lawyers to continue to have fulfilling careers while taking care of growing families or aging parents [or both],” their website states.
