Laura Pfeiffer is an employment attorney who understands that there’s no such thing as “just business”—when an employment issue arises, it always feels personal to the employee involved. Pfeiffer leverages her counseling practice with her many years of litigation experience to advise clients on issues including wages and hours, training, and harassment and discrimination. She recently added employment mediation to the list and obtained certification as a qualified neutral for mediation in Minnesota and North Dakota. Now that adult-use recreational cannabis is legal in Minnesota, Pfeiffer also advises clients on the still-developing employment considerations that will impact their businesses. Pfeiffer is co-chair of Winthrop & Weinstine’s DEI committee and employment group. Pfeiffer also leads a mentoring group for women attorneys at the firm.
