About

Hi, I’m Katie. I like to employ a reasonable, pragmatic approach to being an attorney.

I represent clients in the State of North Dakota on a variety of municipal, water, public finance, and bankruptcy matters. My prior experience working for judges, including a federal bankruptcy judge, gave me a broad understanding of the court system and insight into the thought process of judges when making rulings.

The most memorable moments of my career, which helped hone my legal skills, were working on final appeals of death row inmates who had been set for execution.

I strive to give clients various perspectives to accomplishing their goals. I am an avid sports fan and enjoy spending time outdoors.

Why I Practice Law
I was drawn to practicing law because I enjoy the challenge of finding resolution to ever-changing circumstances.
Fun Fact
I have had the pleasure of working on numerous public projects that are now being enjoyed by members of our community.
