Solveig Tollefsrud

Founder and trial lawyer

Solveig started the firm to give business owners a written plan, with prices, before a lawsuit takes over their year.

Solveig has tried contract, partnership and commission cases to juries, judges and arbitrators. She spent her early career at a large firm in downtown Minneapolis, and opened this office to work for owners who wanted to understand their case as well as win it.

She writes most of the firm's guides, and records the talks on its video channel. Clients say the first meeting feels like a lesson; she takes that as a compliment.
