Minnesota DWI / Criminal Defense Lawyer

Thanks for visiting me where your rights matter. You're probably here because something bad has happened to you or someone you know; an arrest has been made, someone's in jail or under investigation, serious charges are going to issue or because you simply have a question regarding your rights.

Being arrested can be overwhelming and frightening. You never think it will happen. But then you find yourself in the back of a squad going downtown to jail, condemning yourself for the mistakes you have made. No worries. I will get you through this, and at the same time, I will ensure you receive the best possible outcome. In the end, you'll be glad you met me.

20 years of helping Minnesotans accused of crimes

Experience brings with it knowledge, skill and the tact to devise an effective strategy to win. I know how to attack the State's case. I know how to establish favorable facts at trial. I know how to cross-examine witnesses to impeach credibility. I know how to win. My experience and reputation allow me to achieve favorable outcomes on a consistent basis.

I serve Minnesota in all areas of criminal defense and pride myself on the successful outcomes achieved throughout this great State.

I have successfully fought cases in State and Federal courts covering a wide variety of alleged criminal activity, including:

You have rights but you have to fight for them

Americans have rights guaranteed under the Bill of Rights of the U.S. Constitution and its progeny. Whether you are a citizen or not, you are entitled to constitutional protections if you are accused of a crime. These rights have consequences that are magnificent and bold. A judge must throw out evidence obtained in violation of your rights. The police must always gather evidence and investigate crimes in a lawful manner. They usually do, but there are always instances of police who either don't understand or respect the rights guaranteed to every citizen.

Therefore, a significant part of my job as your lawyer is to make sure your constitutional rights are protected. If your rights were violated, I will bring a motion to suppress the evidence and to dismiss the charges against you.
