“Hey there Derek, I just wanted to say thank you again for trying your best to get the best result possible for me. It really looks like you care what happens, and that’s why I hired you. Thanks again.”
-From a client in Ramsey County

“I read every word of the briefing, and even though I am not a lawyer or a judge, I truly believe that you have done a hell of a job representing me. You can always tell when people give something their all, and I truly believe that this is how you have handled this case. I know that you have put in more time then you originally anticipated into this case. I do not want you to think that this dedication has gone unnoticed. Thanks again.”
