PRACTICE AREAS
Real Estate Law
Morris Law Group, P.A., has a strong history of providing a full range of real estate services to our clients. We represent developers, lenders, contractors, architects, landlords, tenants, and property managers in a variety of real estate matters. Morris Law Group, P.A. represents clients in the purchase, sale, financing, and leasing of property from single-family homes, cooperatives, and condominiums to major commercial and industrial properties. We are also available to assist clients who are now experiencing trouble with their previous real estate transactions.

Other real estate matters include easements, condemnations, special assessments, zoning and land use, foreclosures, loan defaults, acquisitions, construction contracts, leases, financing, title examinations, quiet title actions, foreclosures, land title registration proceedings, and property management and development.
Litigation
Morris Law Group, P.A., has a well-established reputation in complex litigation. We represent institutional, corporate, and individual clients in many industries. We represent clients in Minnesota federal and state trial and appellate courts, Wisconsin state courts, before government agencies, prosecutors and administrative bodies, and in arbitrations, mediations and other forms of alternative dispute resolutions.
The foundation of our legal team is over fifty years of combined experience in litigation. The firm prides itself on its utilization of the litigation process as a means of obtaining the commercial objectives of our clients. As a result, we have a proven track record of achieving success prior to trial. When needed, however, we have trial lawyers available to take a case before a court, jury or arbitration panel, an asset that enhances the ultimate result we achieve for our clients.
Business Law
Morris Law Group, P.A., provides a full array of business and commercial legal services to a wide variety of business clients, including insurance companies, restaurant companies, real estate companies, start up businesses, other corporate and limited liability company clients, and individuals. We provide advice with respect to all businesses and commercial transactions and regulation, contract preparation, mergers and acquisitions, joint ventures, bank lending and bank regulation, leasing and project finance, structured finance and investment management. We advise our client on selecting and organizing business entities, preparing articles of incorporation and partnership agreements, and maintaining corporate records. We also counsel clients on their day-to-day business activities, including employee, customer relations and business-to-business transactions.
All of our legal services and advice are provided with an eye toward preventing costly mistakes and shielding our clients from potential liability. However, when necessary, we provide business and commercial litigation services to our clients. We provide commercial litigation advice from the inception of a commercial dispute through to its conclusion with the objective of providing the best possible results at every stage.
If a business finds itself unable to pay its bills, we specialize in Chapter 11 reorganization proceedings and Chapter 7 liquidation proceedings. If a business can be viable in the future, in a Chapter 11 proceeding, we can help enable a business to continue operating despite a present inability to meet its financial obligations. Once confirmed, a successful plan of reorganization may free up cash flow and ensure that a business is a viable enterprise into the future. In a Chapter 11, Morris Law Group, P.A. will evaluate the business's need for reorganization depending on the immediate demands placed by certain creditors, and whether your business can support a viable plan or if there is a more advantageous alternative to Chapter 11 reorganization. Our experienced Chapter 11 attorneys provide comprehensive reorganization assistance from consultation through confirmation so you know exactly where your business stands.
Bankruptcy
Morris Law Group, P.A., and its affiliate, MLG Bankruptcy Group PLLC, offer a wide variety of services in bankruptcy. We specialize in both personal bankruptcies and business bankruptcies, including Chapter 7, Chapter 13, and Chapter 11 work. Our experience allows us to effectively represent consumers with mortgage arrearage or other issues, automobile loan delinquencies and repossessions, tax debt, delinquent utilities, credit cards, payday loans, and more.
Because of our integrated business practice, we excel at providing bankruptcy services to individuals and married couples with sole proprietorships or ownership interests in businesses.
In addition to representing individuals in both business and non-business related bankruptcies, our firm represents businesses in Chapter 11 reorganization proceedings and Chapter 7 liquidation proceedings, whether they were filed voluntarily by the business or involuntarily by the creditors of the business.
Our potential bankruptcy services include pre-bankruptcy counseling to determine whether bankruptcy is the correct option for each client, preparation of the bankruptcy petition and related schedules, representation on various motions and hearings and in adversary proceedings, if applicable.
We are strongly committed to giving each of our clients special attention. We see ourselves as a full service firm, seeing beyond the numbers, if necessary, to uncover the situation that is causing the financial difficulties. Then, we work to relieve the stressors driving our clients into bankruptcy and redirect them back onto the path to financial success.
