First I want to say that we have offices in Minneapolis and in Saint Cloud. So, we’re in the metro and we’re in the larger Minnesota community, and we’re very intentionally so. Because in Minnesota it’s not just what’s happening in the Twin Cities that matters, it’s what’s happening – you know, let’s be honest, some of our most entrepreneurial folks happen to be way outside the Twin Cities.

And so, we want to be where the entrepreneurial folks are who have ideas that they want to bring to life in an optimal way, which always takes human capital. Whatever idea you have always takes people, so we’re specialists with respect to interacting with people. So, what I would say is many of us are folks who had been at large firms for a long time. I was at large firms for longer than 20 years.

Most of the folks I worked with I’ve worked with for ten years plus, some as long as 23 years, and we’re very different. We have tea party Republicans and hard core lefties, and we like that. We like the different perspective and trying to do something in a way that’s focused on clients not forms and meetings and traditional ways of thinking about things. For example, you might solve a big problem by just talking to folks as opposed to suing them.

Minneapolis and St. Cloud attorney Sheila Engelmeier shares why her law firm is different than other employment law firms.
