I would definitely recommend Eric Bain. He was always available when I had a question or concern and was patient. Hands down the best I have seen.

Eric was very knowledgeable and had a great disposition. He worked hard and always had time for me.

Mike is the best! Hands down the most professional, honest and hardworking attorney around! I highly recommend him!

Nicole is GREAT!! She goes above and beyond with her services!! She also is very informative and takes the time to go over your options and explains things to you!
Thanks again Nicole!

Michael Brandt wanted to charge me $5000. for C misdemeanor in regards to a court order that was summon's to me in a state where I don't live. Oddly he wanted to overlook the bogus order as if it wasn't relevant.

Absolutely impressed with the legal knowledge of Brandt law firm . Nichole Kettwick is worth her weight in gold, If you’re in need of outstanding legal representation don’t waste your time on anyone else, call Brandt defense !

Mike is an excellent attorney. He knows his stuff and is completely honest in every aspect.

Dani was the epitome of professionalism when I first met her. My first meeting was actually with her and Nicole, one of the partners of the firm. She didn't say much at the first meeting but more so listened to my situation and listed to Nicole's explanation f things and then asked me questions regarding my case.

After the initial meeting with Nicole and Dani, I had spoken with Nicole and she felt that Dani and I would be a perfect fit for my case. She was waiting for her bar results but based on the information and Dani's resume that was provided to me, she seemed more than qualified to handle my case.

Dani (and the rest of the firm) made me feel like a human being. She didn't make me feel like scum (which I had already done myself). She was concerned always for my health as well as making sure that I understood the whole process and every scenario that could possibly arise.

Dani and I both desired the same outcome of case and she fought hard to get it done for me. She and the rest of the staff at Brandt are amazing and are truly at the top of their game.

I don't write reviews often so read this one. I found myself in a very bad situtation that could have ended my career and would have made me unemployable. I met two attourneys while I was sitting in jail and Michael Brandt was one of them. Mr. Brandt was obviously the lawyer I needed from the moment I met him. Expensive but worth every penny and I would have paid more. Mr. Brandt has crediability and respect by the prosecutors and judges in Anoka county. Im confident no other lawyer could have gotten me the same outcome. I can't say enough good things about Mr. Brandt and his staff. He helped take some of the anxiety and stress out of my current situation. Mr. Brandt was also very easy to reach almost 24/7 during my case. If you need an attorny don't discount shop choose the best.

I retained Nicole after I acquired a second DWI. The state bungled their way through the case from the start. They started by giving the wrong case number on my release paperwork. Then not charging me for 2 months. And then they issued a warrant with maximum bail even though I had been in contact with the court and had be proactive in getting everything done. To scheduling my EHM to be put on on Memorial Day. I would have had to sit in jail overnight because of their poor scheduling but Nicole immediately contacted the judge and got me released within 3 hours of getting put in jail. Nicole was very informative about the process. Always on time for our meetings. Always very helpful in answering any questions I had in between the court dates. She got an unbelievably good resolution of my case. Really unbelievably good. She is a top tier attorney in every facet.

Great team! Friendly, professional and get the job done! Great location. They work hard for you! Thanks Eric and Amanda for all your help!

Dani was the consummate professional from start to finish. She clearly informed me what to expect in the legal process and how to best present my case for a good outcome. I would recommend Dani Peden to anyone who is seeking quality representation for any kind of legal case.

Mike and his whole staff are by far the best around. If I went into details, and people could only see what he has helped me through, there would not be any other lawyers around. He answered my phone while out of town and still helped me. I cant thank him enough!!

Well if you need a very good criminal defense attorney ask for Eric Bain. I have a pretty firm belief that our court system is in need of many improvements and is broken. I had no problem expressing my opinion of this to Eric.
Eric smiled and said without hesitation "I am very good at what I do" you understand i am on yoir side?? Dont you just love people that are good at thier jobs! Eric will explain every step in the process and fight for you. Eric will see the person not just the crime.I Bravo to Eric and his staff. You want them on your side! Worth the price.

Awesome!!! My girlfriend and I couldn't be happier with Eric Bain and the Brandt Criminal Defense Lawyer's. I would recommend this firm personally to anyone that is caught up in the legal system. Eric took very good care of me and went above and beyond the call of duty for my case. Love Eric and the Brandt Criminal Defense Lawyer's

I called Eric (who was recommended to me by a family member) in a state of panic. I thought I was going to be in major trouble and there wasn't much even an attorney could do about it. He immediately came up with possible solutions that he believed could get me out of my jam. Eric was calming and put me at ease and immediately came up with a game plan. I was still doubtful an attorney could improve my situation. I was wrong. Eric was able to work with the state in such a way that they decided to drop the charges entirely. Before going to court, Eric recommended a couple of easy things I could do to improve my situation in preparation. After the state decided to drop my charges, they indicated that the few things I did in preparation for court, that Eric recommended I do, were the reason why they decided to drop my charges. He was able to keep my record completely clear and I honestly think if I had hired a different attorney that would not be the case.

Excellent Lawyer Really make me a great case no roblem at all thank u so much for your service I recommend it to anyone

Worked with Erik Bain, he did a wonderful job for us. Would highly recomend.

Brandt Criminal Defense lawyer, Eric Bain, made the whole legal process, for me, bearable. He answered all my questions, presented all my options in an easy to understand way, and made the whole ordeal as painless as possible! I highly recommend Eric to be your attorney!

Exceptional people. They took all the time I needed to explain what I was facing and any and all options I had. Michael Brandt (Attorney) and Kelly Kirchner (Administrative) set my mind at ease. Clinging to your innocence in the face of false charges does not help unless you have the right people on your side. They have my every recommendation.

The entire team at Brandt Criminal Defense truly care about the person they are representing and take their time listening and advising. I could not have been more pleased with the way I was treated and the way my case was handled. The one I truly have to send my thanks to is Nicole Kettwick, she is an amazing lawyer. She was easy to talk to and took her time getting to know me and work with me on the case which made the whole process much easier to go through. I would highly recommend Brandt Criminal Defense!
