With some of the country’s largest corporations based in Minneapolis and St. Paul, Minn., there is plenty of work to keep lawyers busy. The area is home to Fortune 500 companies including Target Corp., U.S. Bancorp, Xcel Energy Inc., Ameriprise Financial Inc. and Thrivent Financial for Lutherans. Other major corporations maintain sizeable offices in the Twin Cities.
The work flow stays steady even when the economy drops off, according to Minneapolis-based managing partners. “The city’s firms rarely experience the highs that other areas of the country see, but they don’t see the lows either,” said Robert Rosenbaum of Dorsey & Whitney’s Minneapolis office.
