Jefferson C. Pappas - Plymouth, MN

As a home builder, Jeff learned that cutting corners costs more in the long run, and that a quality home requires more than the use of a level and square. It takes integrity, honesty and passion to make a house a home.

Likewise, high ethical standards are the cornerstone of the legal profession. Jeff's high regard for the rules of conduct and letter of the law motivate him to ensure that he maintains high standards in his practice and personal life. His convictions are an integral part of the way he ensures that a client's file is properly guided through the legal process - promoting his client's integrity and his opponents' dignity.

Jeff focuses his practice on the representation of financial institutions, retailers and other creditors in collections, contested actions and civil litigation. He has lectured on many aspects of credit and collections and has provided instruction on compliance with the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, Collection Techniques and fraudulent debt avoidance techniques. Jeff uses a variety of tools to resolve client matters and his experience as an entrepreneur gives him unique insight into the legal process and allows him to provide legal solutions that make business sense.
