Minnesota Lawyer names Dan Koewler as “Up and Coming Attorney”

Dan Koewler, a regular contributor to this blog, just received the prestigious “Up and Coming Attorney” Award by Minnesota’s premiere legal publication, Minnesota Lawyer. “I was astounded,” said Koewler in one interview. “Most attorneys who receive this award have two or three times more experience than I have, so it was truly an honor.”

Koewler was selected in large part due to his broad range of experiences (he’s a regular figure in State court, while also practices in Federal court and in front of Minnesota’s Court of Appeals) but also because of his key role in the recent legal challenges to both the Intoxilyzer 5000 and Minnesota’s urine testing regime.
