Jon was exceptional in dealing with an eminent domain case. He literally saved my farm. Expert in communication, he listened and explained everything. He gave me hope.Jon is a professional,very responsive with a solid plan. He walked my property with me after which was able to save my trees pasture paddock fence and land.county contruction was modified because of Jon's experience. I highly recommend him to anyone facing government eminent domain. Thank you again.
Jon successfully handled a temporary easement issue for us. His experience and expertise was instrumental in making the issue go away. He listened to our concerns, answered our questions, walked our property, explained the process, and negotiated strongly on our behalf. What started as a significant portion of our yard being taken for a 16-month construction project, including the removal of several trees and bushes, ended with the construction plans being modified and our property no longer being acquired. I highly recommend Jon and the Morphew Law Office for anyone facing a taking of their property.
Stacey--Thank you for the kind words, I really appreciate it. Thankfully, people like you will fight against government overreach and the taking of property that is not necessary for a project. Otherwise, the government would get away with it all of the time.
Jon was very detailed, knowledgeable, and had excellent communication with me throughout our eminent domain case. Highly recommend!
The most knowledgeable attorney in the immanent domain space!
Recently I had occasion to work with Jon Morphew on an Eminent Domain case involving property I had just purchased. Overall, I am pleased with the result and would recommend that anybody in a similar situation consider reaching out to Morphew Law Office. There were many reasons why I feel fortunate to have worked with Jon on this, but here are three that I believe might be the most helpful to somebody considering reaching out: 1. Jon showed not just attention to- but care for my concerns. When he stopped by initially, he helped me understand how utilities tend to approach negotiating with property owners; he also took some time to walk through the work I understood the utility planned on doing, how that related to my property, and how the impact of that work might affect what I valued about my property. 2. Jon helped me understand his experience, perspective, and methodology in a manner that was helpful for me. He helped me understand what was happening, what was allowed by law, what our options were to respond to the utility proposing the taking, and what I could understand the general process to look like in the long term. He was also great about answering questions I had. 3. Throughout the process, Jon kept me in the driver's seat. After I made it clear that I was sort of mapping out my options, Jon suggested several times that I continue to work through figures and what was important to me. At a couple different points we had decisions to make, and while at the same time Jon helped me understand the context and potential consequences of those decisions, he also helped me understand that, ultimately, the decisions themselves were up to me. I felt fortunate in this situation to have not just representation but an ally in addressing this Eminent Domain issue. For anybody in a similar situation, I'd suggest reaching out to Morphew Law Office.
Thank you for your kind words Trevor. I'm very happy we were able to reach a successful outcome to your case. I hope all is well with you.
Jon Morphew resolved a temporary easement dispute we had with our county. He was wonderful to work with, and we were very happy with the outcome.
Thanks John. I am glad I was able to resolve that dispute for you. It was great working with you as well.
Called, left a message and never called back. Waste of time. Edit: After seeing the review, I did get contacted from my voicemail which they had available but were sitting on. I was told that I couldn't be helped. This is fine, sadly still not a 5 star encounter but I'll adjust my review up out of courtesy as I cannot delete the review entirely.
It sounds like we must have missed it when you called and left your voicemail and we apologize. However, we were able to locate it and we responded to it earlier today. We would be delighted to speak with you at your earliest convenience. Please reach out through my website to schedule an appointment or call again.
Jon is very knowledgeable and helpful in dealing with eminent domain and real estate situations. Don’t sign an agreement with a city or county for your property without checking with Jon!
Terry, thank you for the kind words. I really appreciate it.
Jon, exceeded our expectations! He was exceptional and never respect. Very fair-minded, and patient with the government who were extremely partial, not fair-minded and ridiculous with their idea of fairness. Jon was able to cut through the nonsense and achieve a fair and equitable settlement. We love our government however, in this situation one needs an extremely competent legal mind to assist the citizen. We are delighted to have worked with Jon and have worked through this extremely difficult process of trying to understand the challenges of eminent domain. This is a power abused by the government to the detriment of its citizens and one needs competent legal representation who has experience of dealing with difficult people, we almost want to refer to them as difficult children however, we do not want to be unkind. The facts and the truth of the matter is Jon and his firm are extremely capable and well worth the time and effort required to take a stand against unfair governmental practices. Thank you for giving me the opportunity to express our experience, strength and hope.

Celeste, thank you so much for your review. I really appreciate it and I am glad we were able to come to successful resolution of your case.
I have had the pleasure of dealing with Morphew Law Office a number of times on a number of various matters in over a decade time-span, ranging from personal real estate, government agency interfacing, complex business development projects and more. Each time they have been exceptional in both their approach as well as results. In my experience, very few legal professionals with real estate specific knowledge have the depth AND breadth of experience that Morphew brings to the table for you as a person or your business.
Stein, thank you so much. I appreciate the times we have worked together.
I highly recommend Morphew Law Office. John’s knowledge and expert advice got us the settlement we would never have gotten on our own.
Tom, I hope all is well with you. I am glad we were able to successfully resolve your case.
Jon has represented my family in a long-drawn-out construction project along Normandale Blvd. in Bloomington. He has done an excellent job to date; we still have a ways to go, and I'm confident that he will represent our interests extremely well as we move through the process. His communication with us has been superb, keeping us informed at each step of the way, offering thoughtful and experienced advice as to the proper course of action.
Tony, I hope all is well with you these days. I really appreciate your review. It was a tough case, but it was great working with you.

I do not hesitate to refer clients to Jon Morphew. He has a thorough knowledge of eminent domain and relocation benefits law. He has the highest ethical standards and is very responsive to clients.
Thank you Sue. I appreciate the nice words.
Jon is an excellent eminent domain attorney. I personally know of a liquor store that Jon helped obtain maximum compensation for the taking of their property by Anoka.
Troy, thanks for the nice words. That was a tough case, but we got a good outcome.
Jon Morphew was great at communicating with me as a business owner. I was impressed at his responsiveness. He interpreted a lease contract for me within one day, as he had promised. Most importantly, he really helped me understand the business implications in layman's terms. I would certainly feel confident in using his law office and referring other to him.
Thank you Dr. Geisler. It was great working with you as well!
