Bird, Stevens, & Borgen, P.C.

Bird, Jacobsen & Stevens, P.C. has added a shareholder and changed its name. The firm is now known as Bird, Stevens & Borgen, P.C. The name change comes as the firm welcomes Attorney Grant Borgen as a shareholder.
Bird, Stevens & Borgen, P.C. will continue to operate as a five-lawyer firm, with the following trial lawyers representing clients in litigation matters: Charles Bird, Jeremy Stevens, Grant Borgen, Van Jacobsen, and Danielle Bird. The firm will continue its long tradition of handling injury cases in Minnesota, Wisconsin, and Iowa as well as its national agricultural litigation practice. The firm will continue to serve clients who have work injuries, criminal charges, or disabling conditions that qualify for social security disability benefits.

Van Jacobsen continues as the firm’s managing attorney, a role that he has held for decades. Mr. Jacobsen also maintains his full-time practice, which is focused on social security disability and workers’ compensation claims.

Bird, Stevens & Borgen, P.C. will continue to operate offices in Rochester, MN and Bloomington, MN. The firm has a new website (www.bsbjustice.com) and email addresses (<firstname>@bsbjustice.com), but physical addresses, phone numbers, and fax numbers remain the same. Emails sent to former email addresses will be forwarded appropriately.

Bird, Stevens & Borgen, P.C. is excited for this new chapter and continuing its rich history of helping clients achieve a successful resolution to their cases.
