Kemmitt Sanford & Kramer

“Obtaining workers’ compensation benefits in Minnesota should never be as challenging as many workers report,” according to attorneys Mike Kemmitt, Evan Sanford and Patrick Kramer. The three partners established their Minneapolis law firm in 2021, serving clients with work-related injuries and disabilities. Their website notes their “years of experience fighting for clients at every stage of a claim from application through litigation.”

Noting that “dealing directly with insurance companies can be stressful, confusing and challenging” for injured employees, the firm has “recovered tens of millions of dollars in wrongfully denied or withheld benefits” in cases involving workers’ compensation and disability claims.

Serving the Twin Cities and Rochester, the firm tells potential clients, “Every case, injury, condition, client, and insurance company is different, meaning your case requires a unique and detailed plan to help you achieve the best results.”

Kemmitt is a graduate of the University of Minnesota Law School. Sanford and Kramer earned their law degrees from William Mitchell College of Law.
