You Have a Legal Problem. We'll Get Through This Together.
Perhaps for the first time in your life, you are seeking the advice and services of a good lawyer. It may help to hear something that is so easy to forget when you are facing a tough legal problem: This, too, shall pass. You will get through this. I promise.
I am attorney Kristine Anderson. I focus my legal career almost exclusively in the areas of Minnesota state and municipal criminal defense and Minnesota family law, including child custody and parenting issues. I frequently appear in courts throughout the southern metro area of the Twin Cities, but if clients need me in other parts of Minnesota, I go where I am needed.
Every successful lawyer develops a personal philosophy toward our profession. I have a simple approach that helps me keep my priorities straight: my humanity, not my law degree, defines me. Being a caring, compassionate woman is what I am as a person. Being a dedicated, skilled lawyer is what I do as a professional. I believe my approach benefits every person I represent. I will always remember that you are a unique individual with a specific legal problem. There are no canned, one-size-fits-all resolutions in family law or criminal courts. Working together, we will seek unique strategies and solutions that make sense for you now and in the future.
My colleagues and clients tell me that my passion for finding resolutions on a human level is what separates me from so many other attorneys. I sincerely believe that the right lawyer does more than dispense advice. Your lawyer should be committed to your case, of course, but must also have the integrity to tell you when your expectations are out of line with reality. After all, nobody has ever gotten everything they wanted in court. Nobody ever will. Getting the best possible outcome for your case is always the objective and I go to the wall for my clients. But, it is equally important that you come through this with a sense of dignity and hope for the future. And that is all that any lawyer should ever promise.
Am I the right attorney to represent your legal interests? I encourage you to find the right fit, which might be with me or, honestly, might not be. I recommend we start by discussing your concerns in an initial complimentary consultation. My Shakopee law firm provides legal advice and representation for family law and criminal law matters in communities throughout the south and west metro region of Minneapolis and St. Paul, as well as throughout Minnesota. My office hours are 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday. You will find my office conveniently located near the intersection of Highway 169 and Marschall Road in Shakopee. For your convenience, I accept all major credit cards.
Contact me today to discuss your legal matter. How you come through this will make a difference; and, that is what having the right lawyer is all about.
Sincerely,
