About this user

Born in Minneapolis, raised in the western suburbs. Daughter of well-known Federal Court Judge Miles Lord and Maxine Lord. University of Minnesota graduate. Worked on the staff of Senator Hubert H. Humphrey in 1963 and campaigned for the Senator in his run for President in 1968. Passionate about youth and youth athletics. Served on the staff of Young Life in Washington D.C. Taught third grade and special education. Member of League of Women Voters. Earned a law degree from Hamline University. Married to Wayne Faris, attorney. Mother of three. Law clerk for the Honorable John Connelly in Federal Bankruptcy Court. Ten-year career in investment real estate. Currently holds a real estate broker's license in Minnesota and Wisconsin. Served on the boards of Little Earth Housing Community and Chrysalis. Trained mediator. Former Member of Sunfish Lake City Council and current University of Minnesota Intercollegiate Athletic Advisory Board and President's Club. Traveled to over 15 foreign countries. Lifelong advocate and community leader. Opened her own practice in 1993 to serve people in Minneapolis, St. Paul and across Minnesota who have been harmed by medical devices or medications or injured or killed in car accidents or through other tragic circumstances.
Since opening her own personal injury law firm in 1993, Priscilla Lord Faris has earned accolades from her clients as well as her peers in the legal community for her knowledge of the law, professionalism and commitment to client service and achieving results.
Her introduction to the practice of personal injury law came after a decade in investment real estate and the death of their son in 1989. "It was a difficult time, and I needed a change," she recalls. "My father had retired as a federal court judge and started a practice within a practice with a local firm."
For her efforts and her expertise, she's been recognized as one of the top attorneys for several years with an AV rating in her field by LexisNexis® Martindale-Hubbell®, which publishes peer review ratings on attorneys from around the United States. She has been given an AV rating by her peers for several years. In both 2006 and 2007, Faris also was named a Minnesota Super Lawyer by the publishers of Minnesota Law & Politics.
While Faris takes pride in the recognition, she is most gratified when clients feel justice has been fairly served at the end of their case.
"People who feel they have been wronged almost always have high expectations about the outcome," says Faris. "I feel the most satisfaction when a client comes to me at the end and says 'I got a fair shake.' In a system that often is neither fair nor just, that's a tremendous compliment."
