    Christopher and Emme Were Amazing
    Christopher and Emme were amazing! They handled my car accident case with professionalism and constant communication. I never had to wait long for a response. They always discussed everything with me before doing anything, and always kept me informed. I hope I never need legal services again, but if I do, I'm going to them!

    Professional and Compassionate Guidance
    We were so fortunate to have the guidance of Karmen McQuitty for a very stressful situation involving our dogs. Karmen was professional, ethical, and compassionate in a very tumultuous time for us. She helped us immensely with a case that I can't imagine navigating on our own and I would highly recommend her to anyone seeking legal counsel.

    By far the strongest criminal defense team
    As someone who regularly attends open court and observes criminal jury trials throughout the Twin Cities, I’ve seen my share of criminal defense lawyers in action. Recently, I had the pleasure of watching attorneys Joe Tamburino and Hannah Martin represent a client at trial, and they stood out in every way. They delivered everything you could possibly hope for in a criminal defense team, something that is sadly rare, given how low the performance bar tends to be for most lawyers in this field. Hannah Martin opened with a strong, confident statement, their witnesses were thoroughly prepared, and together they presented a clear, compelling theory of the case. Joe Tamburino then closed with a powerful and persuasive argument that tied everything together beautifully. What impressed me most was their complete dedication. They fought hard for their client before, during, and after trial to protect every right possible. Even outside the courtroom, you could see how genuinely they cared for their client through their interactions. Out of all the jury trials I’ve witnessed, and there have been quite a few, this was by far the strongest criminal defense team I have ever seen. That’s high praise coming from me, because I’m not someone who hands out compliments to lawyers. In fact, it’s usually the opposite. My late friend Dr. James Rasicot, a respected jury trial consultant who passed away in 2017, often spoke about how truly exceptional civil and criminal defense lawyers are so few and far between. I have no doubt he would have called Mr. Tamburino and Ms. Martin exactly that: rare gems in the profession. Mr. V

    Exceptional Legal Representation
    Joe Tamburino provided me with exceptional legal representation, sound advice, and excellent communication when I experienced a need for legal representation. Joe was very quick to respond to my initial call and worked diligently to represent me to a conclusion that was in the best interest of my rights and future. Not once did Joe attempt to force me into an outcome/decision that I did not want. He truly represented my best interest throughout a legal process! Thank you, Joe.

    Joe Was Amazing
    Attorney Joe Tamburino: I had a very good attorney for a complicated criminal case and ended up changing attorneys and using Joe Tamburino. When my previous lawyer asked who I had retained I told her it was Joe Tamburino. She stated that he was a very well-regarded lawyer, and well known. I said that I hadn't heard of him before but I also did not know any criminal defense lawyers. She assuaged my fears and said that he's one of the best in the state and that I was in good hands. She wasn't wrong. Joe was amazing. He laid out our defense, instructed me on what to do, and was extremely prompt in every reply. With some lawyers, especially divorce lawyers, you may not get a quick reply which can be frustrating. Joe was always quick to respond and he responded himself, not an assistant, which was reassuring. With Joe's assistance we were able to win my case which was a hard case. Joe's reputation as one of the best attorneys in the state was well deserved. If you have any type of criminal case and you need to win, Joe Tamburino is the lawyer you want.
