Minneapolis Federal Criminal Defense Lawyers

Get Our Nationally-Recognized Attorneys On Your Side

A federal crime is defined as any crime that violates United States federal law – and depending on the nature of your crime, you may also be facing charges at the Minnesota state level, too. These offenses are prosecuted in federal court and can result in serious, life-changing penalties, including a sentence in federal prison.

To ensure that you have the legal muscle you need on your side, it’s important to contact our Minneapolis federal criminal defense lawyers right away. At Caplan & Tamburino Law Firm, P.A., we have over 100 years of combined legal experience protecting our clients in complex federal-level criminal proceedings.

Aggressive Representation for All Types of Federal Charges

In the United States, most crimes are charged at the local and state level rather than the federal level. This is because criminal codes and statutes can vary dramatically from state to state. Additionally, the majority of criminal charges involve minor crimes and violations and do not cross state boundaries.

By the time a federal agent knocks on your door, it’s very likely that the government has been building a case against you for months – or even years. Because federal agencies enjoy extensive resources that state and local officials do not, it is difficult to stand up and fight when a prosecutor or federal agent is attempting to deprive you of your rights.

Not all attorneys are equally equipped to represent your interests if you have been accused of a federal crime. Since 1983, our firm has developed a reputation for tough client advocacy and committed counsel. With over 100 years of experience between our team members, we have helped many clients face down federal charges.

What Should I Do If I’VE BEEN ARRESTED?

  • 1. Don’t Talk to the Police!

    It’s crucial to know that while you should remain respectful with authorities, you have the right to remain silent. This a right protected by the Fifth Amendment of the U.S. Constitution, which makes it clear individuals are protected from being compelled to be a witness against him / herself in criminal matters.

    It’s important to note that:

    • Talking will not help you avoid an arrest. If law enforcement has probable cause to arrest you, then they will arrest you.
    • By speaking, you risk making a confession or providing information that can be used to indict you, even unknowingly.
    • Even if you feel that information being discussed is “harmless,” it is still in your best interest to invoke your Fifth Amendment right.
  • 2. Ask for a Lawyer!
    As soon as you can you should elect your right to have a defense attorney present. A Minnesota criminal defense lawyer or public defender can ensure the police do not violate your rights and help you avoid saying anything incriminating during questioning. Caplan & Tamburino Law Firm is available 24 hours a day, seven days a week, so that we can be by your side whenever you need us. Call now!
