Firm Overview

"We can not change the past.  We can affect the future."
- Chris A. Anderson, Criminal Defense Attorney

Chris A. Anderson represents individuals exclusively in criminal defense matters in Minnesota.  He represents people under investigation for potential charges and people already charged with a crime.  The outcome of a criminal case relies heavily on the skills, aggressiveness and experience of the attorney.  As a former prosecutor with over 15 years of legal experience, Chris knows what it takes to protect each individual's rights, freedom and sanity.

Having handled thousands of criminal cases, on each side, Chris utilizes this vast experience to benefit his clients.   Experience matters.

Chris believes that developing the best criminal defense in a case requires utilizing the purely legal aspects of a case ("facts" and law), as well as the equitable or justice side.  Chris personalizes his clients' cases so prosecutors and judges, and when necessary even juries, view his clients as people and not simply as a defendant or file number.   This approach represents a belief in the overall goodness of people who are facing a difficult time in their life, and a commitment to helping them get through it.  Honest, professional, and compassionate are words used to describe Chris and his relationships with his clients.

Chris always remembers that your case is the most important case to you.
