3 Best Criminal Defense Lawyers in St Paul, MN

I was facing a serious ticket with three violations, and after calling multiple attorneys in my area and beyond, I kept getting turned down—or they simply weren’t confident in taking my case. Then I found North Star Criminal Defense Group, and James Gempler was a game-changer. After explaining my situation and everything leading up to it, James immediately put me at ease with his confidence and experience. With years of handling cases like mine in this area, he told me, “I’ve been through this with this county before.” He and his team worked diligently on my case for eight months, ultimately securing a highly favorable plea deal. I won’t lie—I had my doubts along the way, just like anyone would. But I put my trust in James and his team, and in the end, they came through. While others believed I was out of luck with no hope, James and his team proved otherwise. His expertise and dedication made all the difference, and I’m beyond grateful for their hard work.

I hired James Gempler as my lawyer to not only represent me but also navigate me through the legal process. Upon being released from jail and hiring James, he had recommended some “homework” for me to complete. I put my trust in to his recommendations and experience. I completed these recommendations that helped me return to my house and family. Even though through out the court process we had big roadblock that didn’t seem to budge he insured me that this roadblock sucks but it is only helping my case. I took a plea deal from the prosecutor dropping a felony charge to a misdemeanor. On my sentencing date because James recommended some items at the beginning of this process, they seem to have a huge pay off. A low fine, unsupervised probation, no further jail time or community service. I couldn’t have went through this process without James and his team fighting for the best outcome for me. In the high hopes of never having to have hire a lawyer again, James will be my first call if Im in need a defense lawyer. Thanks James for all your hard work in representing me.

James was able to take care of our family's case and have it dismissed altogether. Great to work with for the entire process start to finish which put us at ease...worth the fee! Thank You.
