Legal Malpractice, Business Litigation, Insurance and Criminal Defense
With law offices in St. Paul and Pequot Lakes, Minnesota, the lawyers of O'Neill & Murphy, LLP, provide strong representation to clients in these core practice areas:
- Legal Malpractice
Our attorneys are adept at holding our peers in the legal community accountable for legal malpractice in cases involving missed statute of limitations, breach of fiduciary duties, conflict of interest, negligence, and incompetence. If your case has been mishandled by an attorney you wish you had not put your faith and trust in, we may be able to help. We help clients whose attorney has failed to resolve their case fast enough, allowing the statute of limitations to expire. We also represent clients whose lawyers have overreached in saying they could handle their legal problem, including attorneys unfit for estate planning who have given incompetent advice, and business lawyers who have negligently drafted antenuptial agreements. - Business and Commercial Litigation
Our business and commercial litigation lawyers take the time to understand our clients' business and business objectives in preparing diligently for each case. We handle cases on behalf of plaintiffs and defendants involving breach of contract; collections; partnership disputes; shareholder disputes; failure to deliver goods and services; employment contracts, including severance packages and noncompete agreements; and cases involving misappropriation of trade secrets and breach of confidential disclosure agreements. - Insurance Defense
We represent the interests of insurance companies in cases involving construction law, including construction defects and construction accidents that have caused injuries during commercial and residential construction projects. Our attorneys represent contractors, subcontractors, developers, architects, engineering firms, and workers in all construction-related trades in construction defect cases involving water damage, stucco, foundations, and roofs. Our lawyers also handle cases involving motor vehicle accidents. - Criminal Defense
From our Pequot Lakes law office, we provide tenacious criminal defense to clients in felony and misdemeanor cases, including drunk driving, boating while intoxicated, and other boating violations. We handle traffic offenses, including speeding, reckless driving, hit and run, driving without insurance, and driving with a suspended or a revoked driver's license. Our law firm also defends clients against charges of assault and battery, weapons charges, theft, burglary, shoplifting, vandalism, and domestic violence.
Backed by our partner attorneys' 45 years of combined legal experience, we also counsel clients in cases involving professional negligence, medical malpractice, accounting malpractice, personal injury, product liability, transportation defense, and fire subrogation.
