Minneapolis, MN litigation attorney Jesse Kibort talks about a case that stands out. He notes that he represented a client who approached him several months before resigning from a long-term position at a brokerage. The client sought to leave the firm for a more fulfilling opportunity, but his employment contract included a clause requiring immediate repayment of a loan previously provided by the employer. Additionally, the client believed the firm had not properly accounted for payments he had already made.

Anticipating potential litigation, he prepared a robust defense strategy in advance of the client’s resignation. When the client eventually resigned, he was served with the expected lawsuit. Thanks to careful preparation, he successfully defended the claim, eliminating hundreds of thousands of dollars in alleged debt and securing claim damages against the employer. This outcome allowed the client to transition smoothly into a new career without any out-of-pocket financial burden, ultimately achieving a more satisfying professional path.
