Assistant Prosecutor and Staff Providing. Prosecution Services <br />If awarded the contract, we would seek another experienced and qualified prosecutor to <br />provide the day-to-day services to Orono.

This is the process we <br />utilized when awarded the Eden Prairie contract in 2012 and it was very successful. While the <br />individual will be our employee, this will assure that the City is satisfied with the credentials, <br />experience, communication skills and other personal qualities of the prosecutor that will provide <br />day-to-day services. <br />We will also provide backup to the lead prosecutor and assistant prosecutor from other <br />attorneys currently part of the firm.

Ms. Beyer has almost 20 years of Legal <br />Assistant and Paralegal experience.
