Devoted to injured workers and personal injury victims

Mr. Norbert Cuellar started his legal career as a law clerk in 1993 for a Minneapolis law firm that focused solely on plaintiff's workers' compensation and personal injury cases. He graduated from William Mitchell College of Law in 1994, passed the bar exam and was licensed as a lawyer on December 31, 1994.

He then worked for the same law firm for two years practicing plaintiff’s workers’ compensation and personal injury law. On February 17, 1997 he resigned his position and decided to open his own private practice.

Since passing the bar in 1994, Mr. Cuellar has exclusively represented injured people. He has declined to represent insurance companies and employers. Mr. Cuellar’s law practice is 100% devoted to injured workers’ and personal injury victims.

In December 2001, Mr. Cuellar was appointed as a No-Fault arbitrator with the American Arbitration Association (AAA) here in Minnesota. He has issued over 300 arbitration decisions that have been litigated before him concerning car accidents.

In December 2014, Mr. Cuellar was also appointed as a part-time workers' compensation judge with the Union Construction Crafts and Welfare Fund (UCCWF).

Real testimonials from real clients

  • "I was very pleased with the excellent professionalism in which Cuellar Law Firm handled my work comp case. Even though I had to drive 2 ½ hours on the road, I do not think I could of found as good a law firm in the Brainerd Lake area."

    Maria K., Motley, Minnesota

  • "I contacted the Cuellar Law Office during one of the worst times of my life. I was unable to work or to provide for my family due to a work related injury. With Norb’s help, I was able to have the surgeries needed, attend college, earn my degree, and once again provide for my family even better than before the injury. The Cuellar Law Office was not only a life changer but also the way we were treated when we were down was, and always will be, appreciated."

    Mary C., St. Petersburg, Florida

  • "Getting injured in an automobile accident was an unfortunate and devastating experience for me. My first thought was how could this have happened to me. Then my next thought was how am I going to have the time and energy to deal with all the issues that are bound to surface. Attorney Cuellar has been instrumental in directing me through the various bureaucracies in particular in managing to navigate the medical and insurance maze. He was able to give me assurance with his level of care and professionalism that made it a lot easier than I thought initially. He is well connected and respected in his field. It has been a joy to have him as my legal adviser. I would not hesitate to recommend attorney Cuellar to anyone in need of legal advice."

  • "I suffered from severe back pain for many years. In the fall of 2004, two back Doctors recommended surgery on my back. Doctors told me that if the surgery didn’t work it would not worsen my condition. Workmen's comp denied my request. They felt the surgery did not have a high enough success factor. I contacted an attorney. Friends told me one of the best workmen's comp lawyers in Minnesota was Norbert Cuellar. I contacted him, he took my case. Recently an Administrative Law Judge has ordered workers comp to pay for the surgery and all my attorney fees. I cannot say enough positive things about Norbert. He did an excellent job and kept me informed during the whole process."
