About Stephen
Stephen Quanrud is an attorney based in Minnesota who graduated from the University of Minnesota Law School in 2013. He entered the legal field after earning his J.D., choosing to build his practice in the state where he trained. His education at a state law school helped root him in the local legal community early in his career.
After law school Quanrud began working on matters that intersect law and daily life for many Minnesotans. He developed experience handling disability and workers’ compensation claims, matters that often require familiarity with administrative rules and courtroom procedure. Over time he moved into roles that required both courtroom advocacy and careful handling of claims paperwork.
Quanrud’s work has involved representing clients before administrative tribunals and in hearings that determine benefit eligibility. He has experience preparing evidence, developing medical records for use in claims, and presenting arguments at hearings. That work often means guiding people through dense procedural steps and deadlines. He aims to make those processes more understandable for clients who are managing health or employment issues at the same time.
Colleagues describe him as methodical in his preparation. He tends to prioritize organization and clear communication. Those traits show up in the way he approaches case files, from intake through hearings and any subsequent appeals. He also balances direct advocacy with a practical assessment of case options.
Quanrud maintains professional memberships in legal organizations and stays engaged with developments in workers’ compensation and disability law. He pays attention to changes in administrative procedure and case law that affect benefits eligibility and employer liability. That attention helps him advise clients about realistic outcomes and timelines.
He has been listed with Midwest Disability Work Comp, P.A., where he handles matters tied to disability and workplace injury claims. He practices in Minnesota and spends his time on client intake, administrative advocacy, and the litigation steps necessary to resolve contested claims. His current practice centers on disability and workers’ compensation matters.
