Beth E. Bertelson Has Been Recognized Among the Top in Her Industry by the Expert Network©

Minneapolis, MN, July 18, 2017 (Newswire.com) - Beth E. Bertelson, Founder, Bertelson Law Office, P.A., has joined The Expert Network©, an invitation-only service for distinguished professionals. Ms. Bertelson has been chosen as a Distinguished Lawyer™ based on peer reviews and ratings, dozens of recognitions, and accomplishments achieved throughout her career.

Ms. Bertelson outshines others in her field due to her extensive educational background, numerous awards and recognitions, and career longevity. She studied Political Science at St. Olaf College before receiving her Juris Doctor from William Mitchell College of Law in 1987. Recently recognized by Super Lawyer Magazine as one of the Top 50 Women Lawyers in Minnesota, she has been the recipient of numerous awards and is perhaps best known for her commitment to protecting employee rights and vigorously pursuing the individual's legal goals. 

I've had cases where a new officer will say something like, 'There's too much grey around here. We need people that are flexible and adaptable,' which often are code words for young and suggests ageism. We also do a lot of work under the Americans with Disabilities Act, which helps to create a level playing ground for people. Many times corporations push people out of companies for health issues. At Bertelson Law, we work to help individuals when violations occur.

With 30 years of experience, Ms. Bertelson brings a wealth of knowledge to her industry, and in particular to her area of specialization, employment law. When asked why she decided to pursue a career in law, Ms. Bertelson said: "None of my family members were attorneys, but when I was in sixth grade and our teacher took us to see Judge Lord in action here in Minnesota. I was so inspired by the judge and the experience. I was also taught by my parents at a young age that we should work for justice, fight for what is right and fight for the underdog. As an employee rights attorney, you're the civil prosecutor for civil rights laws. We're dealing with real people with real problems and we can make a positive difference in people's lives."

Today, in her practice with Bertelson Law Office, Beth is known as a fierce and principled litigator, who is always willing to put in extra effort to advocate for her clients. Ms. Bertelson is admitted to practice in Minnesota, as well as before the U.S. District Court for the District of Minnesota, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit, and the Supreme Court of the United States.

As a thought-leader in her field, Ms. Bertelson is often asked to speak before professional audiences. Most recently she was on a panel that spoke to the Hennepin County Bar Association about the ADA in action. She also spoke at the Annual Forum on Defending and Managing Employment Discrimination Litigation in Chicago, about the plaintiff’s perspective on current trends. Beth is active in her local community and was recognized in 2015 by the Minnesota State Bar Association North Star Lawyer Program for exceeding fifty hours of pro bono legal services.

This prominence in her field gives Ms. Bertelson a unique vantage point from which to keep herself apprised of prevailing trends in employment law. In particular, she notes the importance of her work with age and disability related discrimination cases:

"I've had cases where a new officer will say something like, ‘There's too much grey around here. We need people that are flexible and adaptable,’ which often are code words for young and suggests ageism. We also do a lot of work under the Americans with Disabilities Act, which helps to create a level playing ground for people. Many times corporations push people out of companies for health issues. At Bertelson Law, we work to help individuals when violations occur."
