Marit M. Sivertson - LAW OFFICE OF SIVERTSON AND BARRETTE, P.A.

Marit Sivertson is a wonderfully honest, ethical, conscientious attorney. I engaged her regarding my situation with a professional board. Marit not only did not try to “sell” me on her services–she was caringly but brutally honest about my chances and about the costs. She steered me in the best direction, after suggesting alternatives, some of which did not require her services. When she was able to make tremendous progress in reaching a settlement, she virtually insisted upon personally picking up a document from me at my workplace, at no cost, to get it to the board by their deadline. Although the jury is still out on whether I will be able to retain my license long-term in a system stacked against justice, I highly recommend her. She’s obviously not in it for the money.

I received the letter from the Minnesota Board of Nursing in the mail and I was devastated by the statements in it that were almost all untrue. I was overwhelmed and didn’t know where to begin or how to respond to the board. I chose Marit to represent me because of all of her experience defending nurses before the board. From the first telephone conversation I could tell that she really cared about helping me and she was able to explain every step of the process clearly so that I knew what to expect. When it came time for the conference Marit had me completely prepared. I could not have done it without her by my side. The board took no action against my license and I am grateful for her representation.

Marit, Alf, Anja and Michelle run a great practice and they guided our company though the complex legal process always making sure we were informed. They will also have your best interest in mind and try to remediate your case in the most cost effective manner. Thanks guys!
