AASP-MN and Fryberger, Buchanan, Smith & Frederick Law Firm Legal Services Program The Fryberger law firm provides a full range of legal services for AASP-MN members. With 30 attorneys practicing in areas of specialization, the firm can help in nearly any situation. The firm’s home office is in Duluth, MN, and it also has satellite offices in St. Paul, MN and Superior, WI. Here’s how this valuable program works: • Calls can be placed via the firm’s toll-free number at (800) 496-6789. • AASP-MN members must identify themselves as such and indicate that they are calling for a consultation under the AASP-MN Legal Services Program. Members should be prepared to articulate the facts underlying their legal question. • The call will be referred to an attorney or paralegal that specializes in the area of law which is the subject of the call.
• Initial consultation and advice (not to exceed one halfhour of legal services) will be provided at no charge. • If the issue cannot be resolved in the initial consultation and additional research or legal action is required, the member may elect to engage the services of Fryberger, Buchanan, Smith and Frederick. The firm will charge reasonable fees for such services. AASP-MN is pleased to offer this valuable benefit to its members. During a day’s business, members come across relatively simple legal questions that, with access to affordable and appropriate expertise, are easily resolved. This program is designed to facilitate that process. For more information, contact the AASP-MN office at (612) 623-1110 or (800) 852-9071 or email aasp@aaspmn.org.
