Henningson & Snoxell

What Henningson & Snoxell does

Henningson & Snoxell, Ltd. is a privately-held, mid-sized suburban law firm founded on January 1, 1981 by L. David Henningson in Maple Grove, Minnesota, and led today by President and CEO Craig T. Dokken. The firm operates a single headquarters at 6900 Wedgwood Road, Suite 200, and serves clients across the Minneapolis-St. Paul Metro area, broader Minnesota, and — via attorneys licensed in Wisconsin, North Dakota, and South Dakota — adjacent regional markets. It is structured as a professional law corporation owned by its shareholder attorneys, with no external investment or private equity backing disclosed.

The firm delivers comprehensive legal services across 15 practice areas organized into two tracks: business-facing services (corporate law, construction law, creditor's rights, employment law, nonprofit law, commercial real estate, trademarks and copyrights, litigation, mergers and acquisitions, contract law, and licensing) and individual-facing services (family law and divorce, elder law, estate planning, and residential real estate). It employs 15 named attorneys supported by paralegals and law clerks, organized into concentrated practice teams chaired by long-tenured shareholders. Revenue is generated exclusively through traditional hourly professional services billing, with attorney rates of $200-$550/hour and paralegal/law clerk rates of $150-$255/hour, supported by a $1,000 minimum retainer; the firm uses paralegal time to reduce client cost. There is no proprietary technology platform, API, or AI capability disclosed — the firm relies on standard legal practice management software for case management, document handling, and client communication.

Go-to-market is sales-led and built on community involvement (BNI, Chambers of Commerce, civic boards, mayoral participation by shareholder Mark Steffenson), educational seminars and webinars, a multi-category blog and Constant Contact newsletter, organic social media presence, and a strong professional and client referral network. Customers are a long tail of small and mid-sized businesses, nonprofits, and individual families across the Twin Cities metro, with no single anchor account disclosed; pricing is fully hourly with no subscription or alternative-fee arrangements.
