Firm Description

If you want caring, experienced and skilled legal representation, you’ve come to the right place.

For more than 45 years, attorney Bill Peterson has helped individuals and families in the Twin Cities area and throughout Minnesota address important estate planning and probate matters. When his father died unexpectedly when Bill was five years old, his family experienced firsthand the personal and financial devastation that can result when families fail to establish comprehensive estate plans. When Bill’s mother remarried, her second husband suffered a heart attack and lost his business. Sadly, the family had not made a business succession plan.

These life experiences fueled Bill’s commitment to ensuring that other families did not suffer the same difficulties that he and his family experienced. His lifelong dedication is an important benefit to his clients as they address and resolve estate planning and probate issues.
