Kendra Geiger Hagen has focused her career on the practice of family law for over 25 years. After graduating from high school in St. James, Minnesota, Kendra attended Winona State University where she obtained her Bachelor's Degree in the paralegal program. Following graduation from WSU, Kendra worked for a law firm in St. Cloud as a paralegal developing a solid reputation for professionalism, meticulous case management and documentation, thorough preparation, and exceptional knowledge of the law. After three years as a paralegal, Kendra attended law school at the University of North Dakota. While attending law school, Kendra worked as a Guardian ad Litem with the North Dakota Guardian ad Litem Project as an advocate for abused and neglected children in the juvenile court system.

Kendra returned to St. Cloud to practice family law in 2003 and has successfully represented clients throughout Minnesota ever since. Kendra represents clients in all aspects of family law including marriage dissolution, custody, paternity, child support, third party custody, stepparent, relative and adult adoptions. In addition to her role as attorney, Kendra works as a mediator. As a neutral mediator, Kendra facilitates positive, sustainable, and child-focused outcomes, and, in every role, Kendra is focused on finding out-of-the-box solutions that work for each individual family. Kendra is committed to both her clients and mediation participants, helping reach resolutions that best serve their families in a cooperative and respectful manner.

Kendra joined PCG Law as a partner in 2018. In her free time, Kendra enjoys spending time with her family, traveling, and relaxing at the family cabin.
