I highly recommend Eric Doolittle. He is extremely knowledgeable and provides honest, practical and highly useful guidance and feedback . He is also very respected in the legal community which is immensely helpful when defending his clients to prosecutors. In addition to all of that, he is a kind and supportive resource. Follow his directions and you will have the beat possible outcomes. I can’t say enough good things about him - you are in good hands with Eric!

It has been 2 years. A friend of ours needed a law firm for some help. Thank you Avery for for everything that Appleman law firm did for our friend and their family. You cared for them thru every process and step, and got the charges expunged. I consider you a friend and I will update this post every year. God's blessing to you, the Appleman law firm, and your family.

I want to thank Avery Appelman for his expertise in helping me with my case. I’m greatly relieved to know he was on my side and he is going the extra mile in helping me put a mistake behind me and continue with my education and future.

Avery was the perfect lawyer for my case, he was very dilegant and cared about me not just the outcome of the case. Highly recommend him, I wouldnt be where I am today if it was not for his help. Very grateful for his services

Avery is just the kind of attorney I can handle, straight shooter, gets to the point and gets it done. With relationships seemingly everywhere, rest assure he’s always had my best interests at heart which drastically calms my anxiety levels. No one wants to need an attorney, but if you do Avery will have your back!

Words cannot begin to express how thankful I am for everything you have done for me. Excellent work, truly cares about his clients. Helped me a lot with not freaking out, and staying calm over this case. I cannot thank you enough for the hard work you did to prepare for my case. I hope you are getting all of the recognition you deserve. Not only did you represent me with professionalism, but you stood by my side and believed in me. You never made promises you couldn’t keep, but as my case progressed you gave me hope. Because of you, that hope became a reality. I am so glad you represented me! I just wanted to say thank you. Thank you!

Avery is an amazing attorney. He knew all the steps to take to get out in front of everything and made us feel very comfortable throughout a very uncomfortable process. He was always available to us and was always very open and honest. I would never recommend anyone else as he always took the best care of us.

I am an Illinois resident who was traveling from Brookings, South Dakota, where speed limit is 80, to Minneapolis. I was listening to a great audiobook and lost track of location and the speed limit. I was stopped by a Minnesota State Police Officer and giving a speeding citation. Researching my options I contact Avery Appelman about my situation.

After sharing my experience and circumstance, he said I would be better off trying to contact the County Attorney rather than he doing it. He said he didn’t want to charge his fee when he wasn’t sure he could get it changed, and more importantly, it was something I could do without the expense.

For me, who has an exemplary driving record but also have two children driving, any expense would be substantial to my insurance.

I appreciate Avery’s honesty, patience and assistance. Regardless of how my case is resolved, it was comforting to know there are ethical and compassionate attorneys like Mr. Appelman.

I would advise anyone who is faced with more serious charges to definitely consult him.

Thank you Eric! I followed the "Doolittle System" in being proactive on my case. Everything went as well and i got the best possible outcome for my case.
Thank you again Eric! You are highly recommended!

I would highly recommend Appleman Law Firm. They did the unthinkable and were able to decrease my charges! I'm so grateful to have them while going through this difficult time. They were great at communicating and laying out the structure of court process. They have a one time fee, which made it nice not to think about paying bills especially with how long a court case can go.

Thank you Avery. End of my story case my case was dismissed. You were professional and helpful from the beginning to the end. I will always be grateful my friend found you. You came to help me almost immediately, and that was comfortable.

Avery and his law firm were Amazing to work with!! He was available to help me at all hours and answer any questions that I had. When I was charged with my DUI I had no idea where to begin. He broke it all down for me on how the process would work and what I needed to do to put this all behind me as fast and easy as possible. He put me in contact with all the people I needed and really took a lot of the stress and anxiety away. I never once felt judged or belittled for the situation I was in. I would definitely recommend him to anyone that is looking for a DUI lawyer.

Appelman Law Firm leaves me speechless. If you are struggling with a case in which you are worried about who will stand up for you, hear you out, believe you and have faith in your case... then Appelman Law firm is the firm to hire.

My lawyer at this firm was rising star lawyer Eric Doolittle. He took me from having no hope or trust in today’s world of law into having faith and hope in my case. (Number one thing is), he believed me and understood me) the most important thing as you may be up against a prosecuting attorney that may be out to get you for there own benefit and not care about the truth.

In any case he did an immaculate job in trusting my word and working hard on my case to prove my innocence and ended he up with resolving my case (dismissed).

Highly recommend this firm.

Avery is, without question, the premier DWI attorney in the State of Minnesota. His knowledge at every step of the process is thorough, digestible and compassionate.

He has an expert knowledge of every way possible to contest an arrest and the experience to execute.

When it comes to your day in court, you can trust Avery to be a steady influence at the courthouse. Over 10,000 times he has worked with the court and is amazing at making, what can be a very painful day, feel okay.

If you are every in the unfortunate instance to need a DWI attorney, Avery needs to be your guy.

Great, experienced person to work with. Working with Avery was smooth and well organized. Avery was fast from the beginning he answered my phone calls and followed through with what he said he was going to do with passion and commitment with it all being in a timely professional manner.

I needed a lawyer to help me understand my options in addressing a first time and frightening situation of facing several criminal charges. I chose Avery because he was so knowledgeable about the outcome options, the actions he could help me take that would present me in the best light to the prosecutor and judge, the sequence of steps through which the case would proceed through court, because he had significant experience with exactly my type of case within the Hennepin County court system, and because he was calm, assured, personable and not rushed in our conversation, taking the time to ensure all my questions were answered. His fee was slightly higher than the other two attorneys I spoke with, but this was the first and hopefully only time I’ll find myself in this situation, the consequences of a bad outcome could be significant on my future employment prospects, and getting a good outcome and having trust in being in good hands were simply the only selection criteria I and my parents were interested in. Avery and his assistant kept us updated each step of the process, and the outcome was great – the charges I was concerned about were dismissed. We knew we had made a good choice with Avery from day one, but especially so on our court date, when it just became so overwhelmingly clear to us that Avery has the experience, knowledge and rapport with court system personnel to get me safely out the other side of a situation that to us was foreign, scary and serious.

Avery's experience, understanding of the law and client communication is critical to the best result in a difficult situation

Hiring an attorney is a stressful experience; it's something we never hope to have to do. Avery Appelman not only satisfies the criteria to choose an attorney, he blows them out of the water. He has an excellent knowledge base, >15 years of experience as an active attorney in MN and simply knows inherently how to leverage your situation. He can negotiate like very few others. His advice is always truthful and his insight into the legal system is nothing short of brilliant. He ameliorates that 'pit in the stomach' feeling. I feel confident trusting him in an area in which I know nothing.

I had called multiple law firms and after speaking with about six different attorneys I chose Avery. The price was fair and he did a phenomenal job. I expressed my concerns, he listened and did everything he could do to accommodate also his assistant Rosanna was wonderful, very easy to speak with and the whole time I felt I was in good hands. All together I couldn't have asked for a better outcome and would recommend Avery to anyone.

Relying on Google, I was fortunate enough to come across the Appelman Law Firm. My first contact was with Attorney Alyssa Jones, who made such a good first impression I hired her over the phone. This was based on the fact I could really grasp her knowledge and capability to resolve my case with the best resolution possible, but more importantly, her ability to relay information to me in layman’s terms. She was always on top on everything and kept me up to date throughout the process. Her confidence was shown and maintained throughout my entire case, leading me to a favorable outcome. For me, it was my fist time needing any legal aid. My experience with the Appelman Law Firm is the reason I refer people to them. Hire Alyssa, she gets results!

I have been fortunate to have known Avery for nearly 20 years. As a practicing lawyer, I have met many criminal defense attorneys, Avery’s knowledge, compassion and willingness to serve his clients makes him the greatest criminal defense attorney I know. Through the years I have referred many clients to Avery for criminal representation. I know that a referral means that my name is associated with the other attorney. I know Avery will provide all of his clients with a vigorous knowledgeable defense. A factor I look for in criminal lawyers is their availability, it is critical. Some lawyers don’t make time in their day for their clients. Avery is unlike these stereotypical lawyers, Avery he is a very down to earth guy; Avery is easy to feel comfortable around, open up to and work with. Avery partners with his clients, develops an action plan and encourages his clients to help them help themselves. I believe that Avery has a true calling for being criminal attorney. Make no mistake, when you are looking for a criminal defense attorney, make certain to hire Avery Appelman!
