Minnesota Family Law
& Injury Attorneys

Clear guidance. Strong advocacy. Minnesota roots.

When divorce, custody disputes, or serious injuries threaten your future, the attorney you choose matters. Heimerl & Lammers represents Minnesota clients in complex family law matters and catastrophic personal injury cases where careful judgment and strong advocacy make a difference. With offices in Minnetonka and Minneapolis, our attorneys provide strategic counsel, thorough preparation, and results-focused representation across Minnesota.

Serious Personal Injury & Catastrophic Injury Cases

Some injuries change everything. These cases require experience, resources, and attorneys who are prepared to take matters as far as necessary. Heimerl & Lammers represents clients in life-altering injury and wrongful death cases, including:

  • Severe car and motorcycle crashes
  • Semi-truck and commercial vehicle collisions
  • Construction site and workplace injuries involving third-party liability
  • Medical malpractice and healthcare negligence
  • Wrongful death claims

These cases often involve permanent injury, lost earning capacity, and long-term medical needs. We work closely with medical professionals, financial experts, and accident reconstruction specialists to fully present the impact of an injury and pursue accountability. We represent injury clients on a contingency basis. Attorney fees are only paid if there is a recovery.

Workers’ Compensation for Serious Work Injuries

For workers facing serious or permanent injuries, workers’ compensation benefits are often only part of the picture. Our attorneys help injured workers protect their benefits while identifying additional claims that may exist outside the workers’ compensation system. We assist with:

  • Denied or delayed workers’ compensation benefits
  • Permanent partial and permanent total disability claims
  • Third-party claims arising from construction and industrial injuries

Family Law & Divorce Representation

Family law matters affect every part of your life. Our attorneys provide thoughtful, strategic representation focused on long-term stability for you and your family. Family law services include:

  • Divorce and Spousal Maintenance
  • Child Custody and Parenting Time
  • Child Support
  • Post-decree Modifications and Enforcement

Minnesota law presumes joint legal custody, but outcomes depend on the facts of each case. We help clients present clear, organized positions that reflect their role as parents and their future goals.

Frequently Asked Questions

What family law services do Heimerl & Lammers provide as Minnesota family law attorneys?

As experienced Minnesota family law attorneys with over 20 years serving Minnetonka and the Greater Minneapolis-St. Paul area, Heimerl & Lammers offers comprehensive support for divorce, legal separation, child custody, parenting time, paternity establishment, and child support modifications. Our Super Lawyers®-recognized team guides clients through Minnesota statutes like Minn. Stat. § 518, prioritizing equitable asset division and the child’s best interests to achieve stable, amicable resolutions. We tailor strategies to your unique family dynamics, helping hundreds rebuild stronger futures.

How long does the divorce process take in Minnesota, and what factors influence it?

The average uncontested divorce in Minnesota takes 3-6 months, while contested cases can extend to 12-18 months or longer, depending on factors like asset complexity, child custody disputes, and court schedules under Minn. Stat. § 518.155. At Heimerl & Lammers, our Minnesota family law attorneys leverage mediation and negotiation expertise to expedite proceedings, reducing emotional and financial strain—many clients resolve matters in under six months through our proven collaborative approach.

What is the statute of limitations for personal injury claims in Minnesota?

In Minnesota, the statute of limitations for most personal injury claims, including car accidents and slip-and-falls, is two years from the injury date (Minn. Stat. § 541.05), though workers’ compensation claims have no time limit for reporting but deadlines for appeals. Our dedicated Minnesota injury attorneys at Heimerl & Lammers act swiftly to gather evidence and file within these windows, maximizing your compensation for medical bills, lost wages, and pain—contact us for a free consultation to protect your rights before time runs out.

What should I expect during a free consultation with Minnesota family law or injury attorneys?

During your free consultation at Heimerl & Lammers, expect a 30-60 minute confidential discussion where our Super Lawyers®-recognized attorneys review your case details, outline potential strategies under Minnesota laws like Minn. Stat. § 518 for family matters or § 541.05 for injuries, and provide clear next steps without any obligation. We’ll address your immediate concerns—whether child custody logistics, divorce timelines, or accident compensation—drawing on our 20+ years of local expertise to empower you with informed options. This no-pressure session, aligned with Minnesota State Bar Association guidelines, helps demystify the process and builds a foundation of trust; book yours by calling (612) 294-2200 or using our online form.

How do Minnesota child custody laws prioritize the child's best interests?

Minnesota child custody laws (Minn. Stat. § 518.17) emphasize the child’s best interests, presuming joint legal custody unless evidence of harm exists, while considering factors like parental fitness, home environment, and sibling bonds. Heimerl & Lammers’ family law attorneys advocate for balanced parenting plans that foster stability, using detailed documentation and expert testimony to strengthen your case—our track record includes successful modifications that enhance family well-being for clients statewide.

What sets Heimerl & Lammers apart as Minnesota injury attorneys?
