With the release of its 2023 edition, last week Benchmark Litigation recognized Joel Schroeder as a Minnesota Labor and Employment Star, one of 42 lawyers in Minnesota to receive the recognition. Best & Flanagan is also ranked as a recommended firm for labor and employment litigation. 

Benchmark Litigation is the definitive guide to America’s leading litigation law firms and lawyers. With research conducted through extensive interviews with litigators, dispute resolution specialists and their clients, Benchmark examines recent casework and asks litigators to provide their professional opinions on peers and practitioners within their jurisdiction or practice area. Individuals consistently recommended as reputable and effective litigators by clients and peers are named Litigation Stars. This year’s edition is the most comprehensive yet, including a near-record number submissions, additions and debuts.

Joel’s litigation practice focuses on employment, non-compete, trade secret and other types of commercial litigation.  He has represented Fortune 500 corporations, small businesses, executives and a foreign government.
