Susan J. Mundahl

With over 36 years of experience, I specialize in family law, dedicating my career to serving children and families. What sets me apart as a family, and divorce lawyer, and mediator is my personal understanding of the challenges my clients face, as I have been a child of divorce and experienced my own divorce three decades ago.

I deeply recognize the impact our choices during and after divorce have on our children. I firmly believe that "Children are not a prize to be won." They deserve the continuous love and support of both parents. My role as a family lawyer is to guide and support my clients through the complex legal system, advocating for them so they can focus on healing themselves and their children, and building a strong foundation for the future.

In addition to my legal practice, I created some low-cost alternatives for my clients. For the do-it-yourself folks, I distilled my years of knowledge and wisdom into a 3-4 hour online class that will give you all the basics in drafting your pleadings through the Minnesota Judicial Branch forms. It is a nominal cost available through our website under Do-It-Yourself Divorce.

I am also a qualified Rule 114 Mediator and I assist couples who wish to minimize their legal costs by mediating their divorce with an experienced family law attorney who can guide them through all their issues regarding custody and parenting time, child and spousal support, and the fair and equitable division of their property to reach reasonable solutions. Our firm also offers couples the opportunity to have their mutual agreements put into legal form and e-filed with the court for far less cost than traditional litigation.

Finally, I have a book and workbook called “The Emotional Divorce” available on Amazon. It is for anyone is contemplating divorce, going through a divorce, or even years after a messy divorce to assist them in healing their emotional trauma. I hope you will check it out.
