Before joining Lin Law, Andrew spent several years working at an AmLaw 200 law firm, where his practice focused primarily on business and transactional law, in addition to estate planning. Andrew has a broad range of experience advising individuals, families, and business owners with regards to wealth planning and general business matters, including commercial contracts, business formation and reorganization, real estate transactions, and mergers and acquisitions. Prior to becoming an attorney, Andrew gained valuable experience working in both the private and public sectors. Andrew served as a legislative intern in the Office of Wisconsin State Representative John Nygren, then Co-Chair of the Wisconsin Legislature’s Joint Finance Committee and Co-Chair of the Governor’s Task Force on the Heroine and Opioid Epidemic in Wisconsin. During Andrew’s time at the State Capitol, his office was instrumental in the creation and passage of Wisconsin’s 2017-2019 biennial budget bill, as well as a series of bills later passed into law by Governor Walker to combat the opioid epidemic in Wisconsin. Prior to his experience at the State Capitol, Andrew interned for a multinational dairy company as a financial analyst, working in Madrid, Spain.
Outside of work, Andrew enjoys spending time in the outdoors playing golf, hiking, hunting, and fishing. Andrew is an avid fan of all Wisconsin sports teams, but in particular the Green Bay Packers. He is hopeful that he’ll receive his Packers season tickets within the next few years (his parents wisely put him on the wait list shortly after he was born). Andrew enjoys spending time with his three brothers, as well as friends, golfing in the summer and watching his beloved Packers, Bucks, Badgers, and Golden Eagles in the colder months, whether it be at home or one of his favorite spots in town for food and drinks.
