Attorney Jeff DeGree and the rest of our team are passionate about defense work — and we understand that being charged with a crime is a frightening experience. We also know that with a good defense lawyer, criminal charges do not always result in a criminal conviction.
The DeGree Law Office, in Minneapolis, practices exclusively in the area of criminal defense in state and federal courts. We have successfully defended hundreds of clients facing serious criminal charges, including:
We work with each client to obtain the best results possible. This usually involves two separate and seemingly contradictory actions. First, we thoroughly review your case and prepare it for trial. Second, we negotiate with the prosecution for the best plea offer or "plea bargain". In some cases, we may even be able to prevent charges from being filed.
Whether to accept a plea bargain to resolve your case is up to you. However, only by preparing your case for trial do we learn the case's strengths and weaknesses. Further, we can then negotiate from a position of strength, knowing the case is ready for trial in the event that it cannot be resolved.
If you have been contacted by the police, arrested for, or charged with a crime in the Minneapolis/St. Paul area, please contact the DeGree Law Office today.
