Experience and accomplishments matter.  When you hire a lawyer, you should consider not only how long that attorney has been practicing, but what she has accomplished in that time.  I have been honored to be named Attorney of the Year twice by Minnesota Lawyer.  The first time was in 2012 for litigation that resulted in the closure of the St. Paul police department crime lab and again in 2015 for my work as the lead attorney on the high profile murder case State of Minnesota v. Brian Fitch.

I have vast experience in a wide variety of criminal cases. I have represented clients in both juvenile and adult court, and handled cases ranging from disorderly conduct up to First Degree murder. What sets me apart from other criminal defense attorneys is my specialized training in forensic issues, including DNA, drug testing, firearms, and crash reconstruction.

After over eleven years in public defense I have opened my own private criminal defense practice.  Contact me for a free consultation. .  You deserve an experienced, accomplished lawyer.
