Our commercial litigation attorneys handle a myriad of diverse business disputes ranging from class action suits with national ramifications to individual claims. We apply big-firm sophistication in a flexible, innovative small-firm setting, delivering excellent results at an excellent value.

We enjoy a national reputation for trial and appellate practice and have represented companies in state and federal courts in 48 of the 50 states. Our reputation in our home state is sterling and we have earned the respect of the federal and state bench for our substantive legal knowledge, case management skills, and ethical character and approach.

The types of commercial cases we have handled include antitrust, securities, unfair competition, non-compete, patent licensing and infringement, trade secret, contract, real estate, environmental, and creditors’ remedies. We have acted both as lead and local counsel, coordinating local actions with copy-cat and related lawsuits in other jurisdictions. Among our prominent cases are the Minnesota tobacco litigation, a patent licensing dispute involving the flagship product of a Minnesota manufacturer, the Minnesota brand-name prescription-drug-pricing litigation, and a Minnesota class action challenging the securities industry practice of payment for order flow.
