Rodè & Coffin, LLC

What Rodè & Coffin, LLC does

Rodè & Coffin, LLC is a St. Paul, Minnesota-based boutique law firm that has exclusively served healthcare and long-term care providers for over two decades. Its practice covers the full legal lifecycle for these clients, including regulatory compliance, licensure, accounts receivable recovery, employment law, HIPAA compliance, contract drafting, and business transactions. The firm operates as an LLC with a small, partner-led team of approximately 9-12 staff, consisting of three named partners (Robert F. Rodè, Rebecca K. Coffin, and Ryan D. Usher), supported by at least one associate, one of counsel, and paralegals.

The firm targets a defined client base of nursing homes, assisted living facilities, rehabilitation facilities, home health care agencies, and senior housing providers, with work concentrated in Minnesota and Wisconsin. A presence statement on marketing materials indicates services can extend to clients across the United States, but the visible footprint is overwhelmingly Upper Midwest. The firm is the successor to Voigt, Rode & Boxeth LLC, from which it was reorganized following the retirement of founding partners Voigt and Boxeth, with the current name reflecting the remaining equity partners.

The business model is a traditional professional services fee-for-service structure, with revenue generated through hourly billing and likely some flat-fee arrangements for recurring compliance and licensure work. As a private LLC, the firm does not raise external capital and has no disclosed funding rounds, acquisitions, or inorganic growth initiatives. The combined headcount, narrow vertical focus, and lack of stated expansion efforts place the firm firmly in the small-boutique segment of healthcare-specialized legal services.
