The McGrann Shea Anderson Carnival Straughn & Lamb, Chartered law firm was established in Minneapolis in December, 1989. Many of the firm’s senior partners have joined McGrann Shea from other Twin Cities-based firms. The firm presently has eighteen shareholder attorneys, one of-counsel attorney, eleven associate attorneys, eight paralegals and a Director of Government Relations. Our lawyers have well-established practices and bring with them a wealth of experience.

The firm is dedicated to providing prompt, effective service to clients and is accustomed to working on short timetables, under public and media scrutiny and on short notice. 

The firm is a mid-sized one, but prides itself on providing the same kind of responsive and effective service that some assume can only come from larger firms. At the same time, the firm feels that its more modest size gives our clients an opportunity to become acquainted with all of our attorneys practicing in a variety of disciplines and thus increases personal service, adaptability and flexibility.
