Ryan Sandberg

Ryan Sandberg is an attorney at Pringle & Herigstad, P.C. in Minot, North Dakota, where he focuses on criminal defense and plaintiff’s personal injury matters. He represents individuals facing criminal charges and people pursuing compensation for injuries caused by others. Sandberg joined the firm in 2004 and brings a practical understanding of investigations, evidence, and law enforcement procedures to his work with clients across North Dakota.

Sandberg earned a Bachelor of Science in Criminal Justice Studies from the University of North Dakota in 1997 and a Juris Doctor from the University of South Dakota School of Law. Before attending law school, he worked for three and a half years as a deputy sheriff with the Mountrail County Sheriff’s Department and was a licensed North Dakota peace officer. That background provides direct insight into criminal investigations and enforcement practices.

Sandberg’s practice includes defending clients in criminal cases and representing plaintiffs in personal injury claims. His experience as a former deputy sheriff gives him firsthand familiarity with investigative procedures, reports, witness issues, and the practical considerations that can shape criminal matters. In injury cases, he helps clients evaluate claims, understand legal options, and pursue remedies through negotiation or litigation when another party’s conduct has caused harm.

Ryan Sandberg is licensed to practice before the North Dakota Supreme Court, the U.S. District Court for the District of North Dakota, and the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit. The North Dakota Court System lists his license as active. His combination of criminal justice education, prior law enforcement service, and more than two decades at Pringle & Herigstad supports a practical approach to criminal defense and plaintiff personal injury representation.
