About Niecie M. Strand, Sr. Regional Managing Attorney
Edina divorce attorney Niecie M. Strand enjoys working individually with people going through life transitions. That’s what drew her to family law.

There are ups and downs with just about every divorce case. Despite all those twists and turns, Ms. Strand never loses sight of what she is fighting for.
“It helps to take a deep breath,” Ms. Strand said. “This will likely get more difficult before it gets better. Keep your focus on the goal and let’s get there together.”
