Jim Lindell has specialized in civil litigation
during his entire career and is certified as a Civil Trial
Specialist by the Minnesota State Bar Association. Mr.
Lindell has been voted a Super Lawyer ®
in the areas of personal injury and workers' compensation in
annual polls of Minnesota lawyers conducted by Minnesota Law
& Politics and Mpls St Paul magazine. He practices
in both Minnesota and Wisconsin.
Jim is a native of Litchfield, Minnesota.
Contributing to his effectiveness in his practice is his broad
scope of work experience, including:
- United States Army, 1st Lt., 1966-1969
- Management positions in federal and state
government
- Staff aide to the governor of Minnesota
- Construction
- Firefighting (smoke jumping) for the U.S.

Mr. Lindell is highly regarded by both clients and
fellow attorneys. He enjoys a busy workers' compensation and
personal injury practice and receives numerous referrals of those
cases from attorneys in other specialties. He is active in the
Academy of Certified Trial Lawyers of Minnesota and has served as
a board member, officer and dean of that organization. Lindell is
rated "a.v." by Martindale Hubbell--the highest rating available.
He is also a qualified neutral arbitrator and mediator. When Jim
is not practicing law, he is challenging himself anew. Working on
his Wisconsin cabin (which he built from the ground up with his
dad), learning to speak Russian and learning to play the piano are
his most recent endeavors.
Besides the firm's main office in downtown
Minneapolis, Jim maintains an office at his lake home in Webb
Lake, Wisconsin.
