Johnson Bigelbach Law, PLLC - St. Paul, MN

Jill is a very good listener. She is patient and understanding. Most importantly, she will not only guide you but let you know the all the potential consequences of every decision you have make.

After interviewing four different law firms, I chose Jill Johnson Bigelbach and couldn’t be happier with my decision. Two things stood out to me after talking with her. Her calming compassionate demeanor and respectful approach were exactly what I needed during these stressful times. During our first meeting she patiently listened after asking what my top three priorities were in my divorce. Over the course of the next ten months, I watched her masterfully know exactly when to press hard and when to take a deep breath and tread lightly. I am confident that this approach had a significant impact on the positive outcome of my dissolution. She left no stone unturned, and I have yet to find a “hole” in my decree. Better yet, my ex has yet to find one. I ended up with a very fair agreement, through mediation, that included all three of my top priorities! Since my initial divorce I have also used Jill to adjust my child support payment. Once again, she demonstrated the precise balance of aggressiveness and poise. It took a couple extra months, but in the end, I got exactly what I was asking for. As always, she was available when I needed her, timely with her communication, and thorough with her work. I will also add that I have a family member who also used Jill a year later. Their case ended up in court and I was there to watch the proceedings. Jill methodically and strategically, yet respectfully dismantled her opposing counsel. She was so good in court that at times it was uncomfortable to watch the other side struggle to counter her points. I cannot say enough good things about Jill. I have sent numerous friends her way and always recommend her to anyone I know who may need a divorce attorney in Minnesota.

I recently was in need of a family law attorney. My ex spouse petitioned the court to open our divorce from 2 decades ago, stating omitted retirement assets. I found Jill to be very knowledgeable not only with the law but also with the attorneys and judges involved in my case both past and present. Jill explained how she thought the case would proceed and that is exactly what happened. Jill protected my retirement asset now and in the future. Jill and her staff were always professional honest and upfront with me. I would highly recommend Jill Johnson to anyone in need of her services.

June 15, 2020 I have had the pleasure of working with Jill Johnson and her team for several years. She was my attorney for my divorce initially filled in 2005. The original settlement was fair and the attorney costs reasonable. More recently, Jill and her team were instrumental in a post-retirement modification of my spousal maintenance obligation. It was a financially complicated case. With her straight forward approach she was able to completely eliminate any further financial obligation to my ex-wife, and relieve me of additional costly life insurance premiums. In the courtroom, Jill’s oral arguments were accurate, concise and informative for all parties. Jill Johnson and her entire legal team work well together and I recommend them for any Family law matters without hesitation. Dr. Robert S. Edmunds
