Blades Law PLLC

I unexpectedly lost my job in November. The experience was disorienting and I felt I should seek legal advice. An attorney friend of mine had referred me to Cody Blades. I was immediately impressed by Cody's prompt answering of my call and willingness to just talk through my experience initially. Cody was calm, level-headed and very clear on laying out my options. She was efficient and prompt in all interactions and helped me get through a crummy experience with a clear path forward. I would highly recommend her to anyone dealing with employment law.

I want to share my experience with Attorney Ms. Blade. I hired her to represent my father after what we strongly believed was an unlawful termination, and discrimination based on his pre-existing mental health conditions. He had worked for the same employer for eight years without a single disciplinary issue. Then a new manager came in, and within less than three weeks, my father was suddenly out of a job. Before finding Ms. Blade, I contacted more than five different law firms. Every single one of them told me there was no case. When Ms. Blade called me back, I was upfront with her and told her I didn’t want to waste her time since so many others had already turned us down. She insisted on hearing the details anyway. That alone spoke volumes. After reviewing everything, she immediately understood the situation and believed my father deserved justice. From start to finish, she has been transparent, honest, and clear about the process. When my father’s unemployment claim was denied by his employer, she appealed the decision and won. That result meant everything to my Dad. My father was extremely happy because justice was finally served. If it hadn’t been for Ms. Blade’s determination and skill, his employer would have succeeded in denying his rightful claim and walked away without ever being held accountable. The case is now moving forward with further legal action. Hiring an attorney can feel intimidating, especially when you’re worried about cost, but Ms. Blade truly works with you and looks for practical solutions. She genuinely cares about her clients and stands firm for what is right. I’m incredibly grateful for her dedication and highly recommend her to anyone who needs strong and compassionate representation.

Cody was amazing! She helped me negotiate a severance to double what I was offered. I would not have been able to do that without her help. She is extremely knowledgeable and clearly experienced in her field. Thank you!

I was having a issue with my employer and was looking for advice from an attorney. My neighbor is a successful attorney with a large firm in Minneapolis, so I asked him, he did not hesitate to recommend Cody Blades after I explained my situation. I asked why, he told me he had been an apposing attorney against her in a case and it did not go well for him. So, I called Cody, and the rest is history as they say, my experience was great.
