Of counsel? Of course! Shannon comes to our firm with a wealth of experience in civil litigation including premises liability, motor vehicle accident, personal injury, construction defect, subrogation, as well as workers’ compensation. Her “of counsel” designation is to indicate her level of experience, but she is not retiring any time soon. She returns to our Firm after working many years as in-house counsel for an insurance company. She is happy to be back!
Shannon is the Co-Chair of the Minnesota Defense Lawyers Association’s Motor Vehicle Accident Committee. In this role, she co-authored Preventing a Nuclear Attack: Recommended Strategies in Responding to Nuclear Verdict Tactics. She has given many presentations to insurance company clients, Hennepin and Ramsey County Bar Associations, and has been a presenter at the Workers’ Compensation Institute.
Do you have a workers’ compensation case in which the employee allegedly sustained injures from a motor vehicle accident? If yes, Shannon’s unique legal background makes her an excellent choice to defend both the workers’ compensation and civil action. She understands the nuances of both, and as a result, can more efficiently and effectively defend both cases.
Shannon graduated from William Mitchell College of Law. Upon graduation, she clerked for the Honorable Dale B. Lindman.
She is licensed in both Minnesota and Wisconsin.
In her spare time, she enjoys biking, golfing, hiking, and listening to live music.
