Michael A. Bryant
As a husband and father, I not only understand the legal aspect of personal injury and criminal defense, but I also know how it affects families. Legal troubles, whether you are injured or in need of criminal defense, can be devastating for a family emotionally and financially. With this in mind, I strive to find justice for all of my clients in a timely and cost-effective manner.

Since then, he has won the largest verdict in Minnesota for a shoulder injury ($325,000), and, with Jim Schwebel, the largest award in Minnesota for an ankle injury ($461,000).

Andrew Pearson
As a returned Peace Corps volunteer, I strive to seek justice for the disadvantaged. I believe in fighting to uphold constitutional rights for all people. My focus is representing criminal defendants and assuring them that I will go the extra mile to fight for their rights. In 2005 I was recognized by the Minnesota Criminal Defense Lawyers Association for my use of the battered child syndrome in a murder case.
John H. Bradshaw
Everyone has problems and sometimes they are overwhelming. I have always aimed towards helping people deal with that kind of obstacle. I have been fortunate in having a widely varied education and background in many walks of life. I am married, with three children. I appreciate that life is often complex, seldom easy and that our clients need support and attention. My focus has been on the personal and technical aspects of complex injury litigation and helping my clients mend their lives.
