Adam was able to handle my issue with no issues what-so-ever. Even though I no longer live in Minnesota. He went the extra mile without charging me extra. I would gladly recommend Adam to anyone who requires legal help in Minnesota.

I have called upon Engelmeier & Umanah on multiple occasions to review and consult with me on matters of employment. They are a top-notch employment law firm who passionately care about, and represent their clients. Working with Charlie Firth, I have always had confidence that I am having my best interests represented. I would highly recommend them for anyone who wants to be assured that your legal interests are being defended when entering into employment agreements, or other matters of employment law.

It was a great experience and made the estate planning process seamless. Very friendly and professional staff made this difficult process go smoothly. If you need any legal work done please contact Jacqueline Schuh office.

Sheila Engelmeier and Charlie Firth helped me navigate a very complex employment matter. The case was multi-faceted and thorny at best. They took on the challenge with enthusiasm and quickly digested all of the legal and factual nuances. Each brought a complimentary skill set to the table and their team approach worked well for the case. The situation was eventually resolved in a win-win fashion mostly due to the hard work, tenacity, legal knowledge and negotiation skills of this team. Probably more importantly, however, was their ability to be supportive through the many emotional ups and down of the journey, all while staying focused on the target. I can think of no better advocate than this team for any employment matters. --- Health Care Executive

Timely & Tenacious – yet practical. We have used the lawyers at Engelmeier & Umanah for our human resource legal needs for decades and have always found their work outstanding. We have also used E&U for estate planning guidance and probate disputes involving the family business and have been thoroughly impressed in that area as well. One example typifies E&U’s work. Our company experienced an unusual problem involving a competitor suddenly attacking us in a blitzkrieg style smear campaign. The competitor did everything in its power to ruin our reputation in the market place by casting aspersions on our good name. The competitor even contacted a local newspaper and the BBB making all kinds of unfounded and untrue claims including fraud. The competitor also contacted customers we were doing business with to try frighten them and discredit us. When our phones started ringing off the hook from concerned customers, we turned to Englemeier & Umanah for assistance. Within an hour of contacting E&U, they started gathering all of the relevant facts ASAP. Shortly after our initial contact, an E&U attorney contacted the perpetrators demanding a stop of the attack. Our competitor agreed to suspend its attack. Within days however the competitor attempted to continue the attack covertly so they wouldn’t be liable. Fortunately for us E&U was vigilant and discovered proof of the competitor’s indirect tactics and put an immediate stop to it. Our competitor was so shocked by E&U’s ability to identify what it was doing, it slithered away and we have never heard another peep. We will be forever grateful that we have E&U on our side!

My daughter, son and I have used various lawyers at Engelmeier & Umanah to assist us with our legal needs over the last several decades. The work was excellent on all counts. For example, Sheila Engelmeier, Jamie Flom and Tom Marshall helped my daughter with a disability benefits claim. They were also very helpful with a discrimination claim for a member of my family. Similarly, the firm assisted me with executive compensation issues and employment transition issues. Ivory Umanah helped our family with a number of estate planning and probate dispute issues. We not only received great service, but a lot of compassion. We recommend them to anyone who is looking for great lawyers and people, as well as a place that feels like home.
