Before joining Collins, Buckley, Sauntry & Haugh, Cathryn was a partner at Swaden Law Offices, in Edina where she spent 14 years devoting her practice exclusively to family law. Her prior experience includes clerking for the Honorable Gordon W. Shumaker and the Honorable John S. Connolly in Ramsey County District Court. Ms. Schmidt assisted Judge Shumaker (now retired from the Minnesota Court of Appeals) in the determination of complex litigation matters, including Minnesota's landmark silicone breast implant insurance coverage declaratory judgment action. Following her clerkships, she developed a reputation as an excellent trial court advocate as a Ramsey County Public Defender while also maintaining a private practice devoted primarily to family law.
