A Lake Superior Lawyer is the first in-depth biography of Chester A. Congdon, the resourceful lawyer and businessman who helped shape the economic and political history of Minnesota from 1880 until his death in 1916. Examines the whole of Congdon's life, from his childhood as the son of a Methodist minister in Rochester, New York, to his influential adulthood in St. Paul and Duluth, Minnesota. Congdon was an accomplished lawyer, serving as Assistant U.S. District Attorney for eleven years before entering private practice in Duluth. He was active in state politics as a legislator and, on a national level, as Minnesota's National Republican Committeeman for the 1916 convention. Congdon's entrepreneurial reputation grew in step with his political stature, as he developed ore-rich mining lands in Minnesota and Arizona and established the first extensive irrigation system in Washington state's fertile Yakima Valley.

A compelling memoir about "Ed" Krug, who as a man, had everything that anyone could want: a soul mate's love, the adoration of two beautiful daughters, a house in the best neighborhood, and a successful trial lawyer's career. After years of self-denial, "Ed" began a "gender journey" of self-discovery, In the end, that journey meant accepting Ellen, even though doing so meant giving up much of what "Ed" had valued as a man. This is a truly compelling story that goes beyond some things lost and others gained. It has universal meaning for everyone--whether they are transgender or not.

The Landlord’s Guide to Minnesota Law addresses every landlord-tenant legal issue that is likely to arise over the course of a lease. From how to find a tenant to what to do once they leave, it is a practical and thorough legal analysis of what Minnesota landlords need to know about complying with the relevant federal, state and local laws. At the end of each chapter you’ll find “Tips from a Tenant Attorney.” These tips offer more creative advice on how landlords can solve difficult legal situations or prevent them from ever occurring. Also included is our exclusive line-by-line analysis of the Minnesota State Bar Association’s Model Residential Lease. Instead of guessing what your lease terms mean, this guide tells you why each term exists and how it applies to your situation. This book was written by practicing attorneys in Minnesota who work exclusively in landlord-tenant law. There are dozens of legal guides available online for landlords, but none of them focus on Minnesota statutes and regulations, and when it comes to landlord-tenant legal issues, state law is key. Both authors are currently practicing attorneys with over 25 years of experience in tenant landlord law, advising over 39,000 renters on HOME Line’s tenant hotline. They also train a wide variety of audiences in tenant landlord law, including over 100 trainings to landlord groups throughout Minnesota.
