Greetings potential and current clients:
I am a founding attorney and shareholder at Nelson & Lindquist, S.C.. In addition to my legal background, I would like to share a little bit of my personal background with you as well. As your attorney, I hope you develop a great deal of trust and confidence in me and I will work diligently to achieve that confidence. I believe very strongly in working in collaboration with my clients to realize their legal objectives. It is my firm belief that all clients deserve respect and attention to detail. With these principles in mind, I wish to share a little of my background with you.
I grew up in central Wisconsin, graduating from Assumption High School in Wisconsin Rapids, where I was actively involved in a variety of sports including football and baseball. I joined the Boy Scouts at a young age and attained the rank of Eagle Scout. I worked as a camp staff member and later as a camp director for Tesomas Scout Camp in Rhinelander, WI for 11 summers. While there, I was honored with the On Wings of Excellence award, the recognition given out to that staff member who best exemplifies the Scout Oath and Law.
After high school, I attended Minnesota State University at Mankato, MN, and graduated with a degree in law enforcement. It was during this time that I joined the Army Reserves and am proud to have had the opportunity to serve my country for eight years in that capacity. After graduation, I attended Michigan State University School of Law for one year before transferring to the University of St Thomas School of Law in Minneapolis, MN, where I received my Juris Doctor in May, 2006.
I served as a student attorney for the Rice County Attorney's office in Faribault, MN for two years. I also worked as a law clerk for attorney Steven Dunlap in Hudson, WI. After working for some time as a research attorney at Thompson West in Eagan, MN, I accepted an associate position with Johnson and Cohen law office in Eau Claire, WI. In January, 2008, I opened the Nelson Law Office in downtown Hudson, WI. In April, 2009, Autumn Lindquist joined the firm as a shareholder and the name changed to Nelson & Lindquist, S.C.
I am very happily married to Joy Nelson, who is a Registered Nurse at St. Joseph's Hospital in St. Paul, MN. We have two wonderful children, a son, Aiden and a daughter, Audrey. To sum things up, I have a strong desire to be your family attorney that you turn to as your family grows with mine. I am dedicated to exceptional service, taking the time necessary to answer your questions and openly communicating and collaborating with clients to achieve your legal goals.
Please contact me for a free initial consultation and I look forward to working with you!
Warmest Regards,
Attorney Andrew M. Nelson
