Attorney Information

Overview

I am originally from Park Rapids, but have lived in many areas of the state. I focus on family law matters such as divorce, child support, custody, adoptions, and paternity. I also handle a variety of estate planning and guardianship issues. I have a reputation for carefully and compassionately assisting clients through difficult times in their personal lives. I believe in small town customer service with big city attorney experience. I enjoy alpine skiing, camping, hiking, and spending time with my husband and our three children at northern Minnesota lakes.

    I had the worst possible nightmare situation I could have had, Ex wife cheated , then she tried to lie that I beat her and my kids, Order for Protection was put on me, I worked for her dad and he fired me for no reason and wrongfully denied my unemployment claim .. ..The list goes on and on. I had talked to many lawyers as I needed the best one and Katie was recommended multiple times. Katie is a fierce lion when she needed to be but was also subtle when it was called upon, she did her homework on every avenue we needed to take. We had to take on one of the biggest named lawyers in the state. At our first court appearance Katie and her team got the OFP dismissed, and I never had to speak. They were after sole custody, big child support, alimony, maintenance, the whole works. I got my kids 50% and split rights, no alimony/maintenance, and favorable child support order, I'm telling you...Katie Jendro is your lawyer.
