James did a great job with our land dispute at our lake home! He was very knowledgeable, asked multiple questions to get a better understanding of our situation, did the research and our family won our case! James was easy to work with and I would highly recommend him!

I have worked with James for many years in civil cases and have had nothing but wonderful experiences. James has a great attitude and is easy to work with. He is very honest and a great team player. In the court room, he was always very organized, on task and litigated our cases well. I would definitely recommend him.

A former business associate sued my partner and I claiming that we had wrongfully withheld money from her, had wrongfully kicked her out of the business, taken property from her, and she was seeking control of the business my partner and I had started. The plaintiff and her attorney took a very aggressive approach to the litigation and within a day or two of the lawsuit starting the Plaintiff's attorney was calling my partner and I to demand that we basically turn the keys of our business over to him. We hired James Teigland and Joel Fremstad of the Fremstad Law Firm to represent my partner and I in the dispute. Joel prepared an initial response to the lawsuit that same day. James began working with my partner and I to come up with a comprehensive response to the lawsuit, which contained blatantly false information. James was thorough and tireless. The business did not work out but I know I had excellent legal representation during the entire process and that the business would not have stayed open as long as it did without James's assistance. I would recommend that anyone that starts or owns a business talk to James or Joel. We received poor advice from another attorney when my partner and I started our business, which likely contributed to the litigation. I think that if my partner and I had talked to Joel or James, much of this could have been avoided. I would also recommend James to anyone that does have a business or corporate dispute that needs resolution. From what I've seen, some attorneys main goal is to bill as many hours as possible on a case. James's goal is to actually resolve disputes. Joel and James make a great team and I hope to do work with them again in the future under more favorable circumstances.

I hired James to assist me in a dispute over property taxes with Cass County North Dakota. It was a complicated issue and it was difficult to know what would be the ideal position to take in the matter. I was able to consult with James regarding the risks, costs, and benefits of various positions. He helped me realize that there are multiple dimensions to a legal dispute and gave me good advice to resolve the dispute in a way I thought was favorable. I will recommend James to my family and friends for any of their legal needs.
