Below is just a sample of some of the more common types of cases I handle. I offer a wide range of criminal defense related services. Whatever difficulties you face, I can help.
In Minnesota, DWI laws are rigorously enforced to promote road safety. A DWI charge encompasses driving under the influence of alcohol, controlled substances, or both. Convictions can result in severe penalties, including license revocation, fines, and even incarceration. Beyond the immediate legal consequences, a DWI can have lasting impacts on personal and professional lives. Archambault Criminal Defense offers diligent representation, focusing on detailed examination of arrest procedures, breathalyzer accuracy, and the circumstances leading to the charge. Our approach aims to safeguard clients’ rights while exploring all avenues for reducing or dismissing charges.
Assault charges in Minnesota range from misdemeanor simple assault to felony-level aggravated assault, based on the severity of the alleged harm and whether a weapon was involved. These charges can dramatically affect one’s future, leading to significant legal penalties and societal stigma. Archambault Criminal Defense provides a thorough defense strategy, emphasizing self-defense, consent, or mistaken identity when appropriate. Our firm works tirelessly to mitigate the impact of assault charges, focusing on a comprehensive analysis of the allegations to protect our clients’ futures.
Theft and property crimes in Minnesota cover a broad spectrum, including burglary, theft, vandalism, and arson. Penalties vary widely, influenced by the value of the property involved and the defendant’s criminal history. Archambault Criminal Defense approaches these cases with a focus on detailed evidence review and legal argumentation to challenge the prosecution’s case. We consider every option to defend our clients, from questioning the evidence’s validity to negotiating plea agreements that minimize penalties and protect our clients’ records.
Facing sex crime allegations in Minnesota is profoundly serious, with the potential for severe penalties and mandatory sex offender registration. These charges require a defense that is both aggressive and tactful. Archambault Criminal Defense handles such sensitive cases with the utmost discretion and dedication, challenging the prosecution’s evidence and questioning the credibility of allegations. Our firm is committed to defending our clients’ reputations and freedom, employing strategic defenses tailored to each unique situation.
Expungement offers individuals in Minnesota the chance to clear their criminal records and start anew. The process can be complex, involving strict eligibility criteria and detailed legal procedures. Archambault Criminal Defense guides clients through the expungement process, offering clarity and support. Our goal is to maximize the chances of a successful petition, thereby unlocking opportunities in employment, housing, and education that were previously out of reach due to a criminal record.
Minnesota’s laws on controlled substances are stringent, with convictions carrying heavy penalties, including imprisonment and substantial fines. Archambault Criminal Defense specializes in defending against drug charges, from possession to distribution. Our approach includes challenging the legality of searches, the possession intent, and the substance’s identification. We advocate for alternatives to incarceration, such as treatment programs, aiming for outcomes that focus on rehabilitation and recovery.
Weapon offenses in Minnesota, including illegal possession or carrying of firearms, are met with strict penalties. Archambault Criminal Defense offers knowledgeable legal representation for those accused of weapon offenses, focusing on constitutional rights and the circumstances of the arrest. We explore defenses related to lawful possession, self-defense, and other mitigating factors, aiming to secure favorable outcomes for our clients.
Harassment and stalking allegations in Minnesota can lead to criminal charges with significant consequences. Archambault Criminal Defense tackles these charges head-on, scrutinizing the evidence and the accuser’s motivations. Our defense strategy often involves challenging the interpretation of actions and communications, striving to dismantle the prosecution’s case and protect our clients’ freedoms.
Violating probation terms in Minnesota can result in severe repercussions, including the imposition of the original jail sentence. Archambault Criminal Defense represents individuals accused of probation violations, focusing on the circumstances surrounding the alleged violation. Our firm works to present evidence of compliance and positive behavior, advocating for our clients’ continued rehabilitation and freedom.

I never expected to be called to work in criminal defense. For many years I found work as a prosecutor fulfilling. But over time that changed. Rather than making a difference, I was a cog in the machine. Cases stopped feeling like people and became names on paper. And I realized that often the true difference makers in the system are the defense attorneys.
I founded Archambault Criminal Defense because I want to use my skills to help people. Because I want my cases to be about people and not just names on paper. Because I know I have unique expertise and experience that can truly help people move forward and get on with their lives.
