Presented by
Benjamin Nicolet, an attorney with Nicolet Law Accident & Injury Lawyers, said his goal as a personal injury attorney is to be a steady hand for his clients, guiding them through chaos as they make their decisions on the road to recovery.
When working on personal injury cases, Nicolet said putting the client first is the most important part of the work he does.
While his brothers were involved in the legal field, Nicolet said he was unsure it was the right choice for him. After graduating from college, he and his wife moved to her homeland, the Ukraine, where he taught English. After about a year, they both wanted to be involved in the legal field, so they moved to Minneapolis to attend the University of Minnesota Law School.
While he had other job offers, Nicolet decided to join his brothers to practice law to assist those who need help the most.
