Cathy A Wagner
Rogers, MN Family Law Lawyer with 29 years of experience
Family, Divorce, Domestic Violence and Estate Planning
William Mitchell College of Law
I was a late bloomer. I didn't even start on my undergraduate degree until I was 35. Perseverence pays off, however. I made it all the way through undergrad and law school and have been practicing since 1994. Much of that time was spent as a solo practitioner, but I have a colleague who is an equal owner with me.
My practice is limited to estate planning (wills and trusts), probate, guardianship/conservatorships and all aspects of family law (divorce, custody, child support, spousal support, property division, etc.)

Jill utilizes an innovative approach to family law - she see a divorce as a "family reorganization" and she encourages her clients to adhere to the following guiding principles:
1. A happy family in two houses is better than a miserable family in one house.
2. A divorce terminates a marriage, but a divorce does not terminate a family.
3. Conflict damages children.
4. A divorce is not to be started lightly - it impacts multiple generations.
5. All divorces cause losses.
