Hastings Criminal Lawyers

I focus on probate law and criminal law. An unusual combination, true, but I've worked in both fields for a long time. I'm a 1973 Northwestern University Law School graduate (J.D.) and a 1970 graduate of Grinnell (Iowa) College (B.A.). I also have an M.S. from the University of St. Thomas in St. Paul, and developed a specialty in designing and implementing computer databases for lawyers, paralegal, investigators and others similarly situated. I've done that for nearly 30 years. I originally hail from Fremont, NE, and have lived and worked in Minnesota for over 40 years.

The only way to solve problems is through action. Determination, drive, and integrity are the keys to success. I co-founded Wainberg Morrison in order to help students who have the misfortune of finding themselves on the wrong side of the law.

I've been a defender since before graduating law school in 1994, and have more than 10K evidentiary hearings to my name, hundreds of bench and jury verdicts, several thousand civil hearings relating to criminal charges or family court impacts from criminal cases, forfeiture hearings in nearly twenty jurisdictions... I've received dismissals in federal courts in four different states, and I'm willing and able to travel ANYWHERE you or your family member needs assistance. My growing firm can handle any criminal, family, business-creation or contract-dispute matter you face, and if we do NOT handle your matter, we coordinate with multiple firms...
