I hired Andrew long distance by phone. We discussed my marriage and many of the unique financial aspects to it, and what I hoped to accomplish in the settlement agreement. Andrew was extremely patient with me and the emotional struggle I had with exiting a long term partnership that I did not plan to leave. He was kind and gentle with me but kept me on task. Andrew was really great at guiding me through the negotiations, reminding me of what mattered and what really didn't. Andrew knew that language requiring my ex to provide financial assistance for my adult daughter's horses was paramount for me, and he found a way to accomplish that despite there not being any child support, and in a way that my ex did notperceive it as "too much alimony". In other words, he allowed the opposing side to maintain dignity while still getting me a really generous settlement.
The single thing that he did which stands out though, and one which my ex just hammered me about, is that Andrew fought really hard to protect my marital share of my ex's privately held company stock. While there was no street value at the time of the divorce, the potential was there. Andrew held firm about putting language in regarding those shares. Less than a year after the divorce, the company announced recapitalization. The $5,000 or $7,000 I spent on Andrew working through that - and it took subpoenas to my ex's HR department - will net me almost a million dollars once the shares transfer. I almost gave up on this battle as I felt like I'd won so many others. I'm so grateful that Andrew insisted I did not!
Additionally, we had three homes in three states; a lot of moving pieces and complicated income and assets and debts. Andrew was methodical and calm and wise and dug in to get the complete information, but remained calm and friendly and available to me as if I was his only client.
In the end, he went to court without me even there. I met him once, briefly; which in hindsight seems outrageous for a person who's legal work amounts to several million dollars worth of settlements. I couldn't be more happy with what Andrew accomplished for me and for how kind he was doing it. I would highly recommend him to anyone needing a divorce attorney. His attention to detail and his knowledge of the law was priceless.

Feeling lost, with the pending divorce after 19 years of marriage , I reached out to Andrew T. Hunstad of Sheridan & Dulas, P.A.. He gave me the best advice " Get a good therapist because I am not. But I am an excellent attorney." He had my back through the entire process. And that was worth every dollar I spent.

After receiving divorce papers by a process server I knew I needed an attorney to view them before I signed my life away. I literally went onto Google and entered in "Divorce Attorneys" with my area I lived in and Sheridan & Dulas came up 1st. I decided just to call and if I didn't like them then I'll find someone else. The receptionist set me up with Attorney Andrew Hunstad, I sat with him for my free 1 hour consultation and needless to say by the end I retained him. He is honest, truthful, knowdependable, always responds asap, and has made my divorce case the best experience I've ever had with an Attorney. With absolutely no thought I could get what was fair from the divorce, Andrew made sure I got what was fair and I'm extremely pleased and thankful. Hands down, Sheridan & Dulas is the #1 place to go to for your divorce case. If you're able to, ask for a consultation with Andrew Hunstad... you won't regret it!!

Mr. Hunstad,
When we first met, we discussed my concerns related to the divorce and spousal maintainence, amongst other things. You were candid in your advice and told me what I needed to hear. Your understanding of the law and the emotions involved saved me from making a costly mistake. You literally saved me $7,000.00 each month.
Thank you, again.

Mr. Hunstad -
I cannot thank you enough for your help over the last few months. The divorce was difficult enough but it was easier having a lawyer that would tell me the truth.

Andy has helped me with legal advice for my startup company. I wanted to write a promissory note so an individual could provide a startup loan. He was able to tailor a note specifically to my business, relationship with the individual, and Minnesota Law. I also wanted to review my Articles of Org and Member Control Agreement to determine procedures for adding members with ownership of units, governors to the board, committees on the board, and officers. Again, he was able to tailor the information specifically to my business. The advice will help me allow individuals to get involved in my company, follow my company's and MN's requirements, and not create conflicts or risks.

Mr. Hunstad was both helpful and patient with me. He walked me through my employee contract step by step. While going through each part of the contract, he was able to put everything into laymen's terms if I didn't fully understand the technical aspects . He also had a great grasp of current laws, both state and federal
Overall I would highly recommend him based on both knowledge and communication.
