Conmy Feste

What Conmy Feste does

Conmy Feste Ltd. is a Fargo, North Dakota-based full-service law firm founded in 1879, making it the longest continuously operating law firm in the state. The firm serves individuals and business owners across the Fargo-Moorhead area, North Dakota, and northwestern Minnesota, with eight named attorneys covering personal injury and wrongful death, family law, business law, real estate law, civil and commercial litigation, trusts and estates, banking and bankruptcy, construction law, and employment law.

The firm generates revenue through two primary models: traditional hourly and fee-for-service billing for most practice areas, and a contingency-fee ("No Recovery No Fee") arrangement for personal injury and wrongful death claims. Enterprise clients include banks and lenders (including one of the largest in North Dakota) for commercial lending, foreclosure, and creditors' rights work, plus business-owner clients across insurance, banking, agriculture, architecture, and engineering. The firm also participates as co-counsel in mass-tort matters such as the Syngenta Corn Litigation, representing U.S. corn farmers.

Conmy Feste has no proprietary technology platform. Its go-to-market relies on reputation, referrals, free initial consultations, a FindLaw-hosted website with a legal blog, and social media presence on Facebook, LinkedIn, and X. The firm has been recognized through peer-reviewed industry rankings including Chambers USA, Best Lawyers in America, Super Lawyers, and the American College of Mortgage Attorneys, though it does not publicly disclose revenue, headcount of support staff, or any outside investment.
