Meeting serious charges with serious counsel in Ramsey and Hennepin counties.

Committed To Defending Your Rights, Livelihood And Liberty

When a police officer knocks at your door or wants to talk to you about an incident, they are not gathering evidence to prove your innocence. The moment you are under investigation for a crime is the moment you need a highly qualified attorney unafraid to take assertive action. As the founder of Clippert Law Firm, I am firmly committed to protecting the rights, livelihoods and liberties of Minnesotans within and beyond Minneapolis and Saint Paul. With over 25 years of legal experience, I draw on my extensive background as a public defender and in private practice to build robust, client-focused strategies that meet your needs. Having successfully argued cases before the Minnesota Supreme Court, I am ready to bring insight and clear guidance to serious and complex cases in both jury trials and at the appellate level.

Adaptive Counsel Across A Range Of Criminal Cases

Representing clients charged with everything from simple driving offenses to narcotic sales, assault or murder, I bring individualized attention and focus to each case. By pairing strong advocacy with a personal understanding of your situation and goals, I offer adaptable, responsive counsel that large, high-volume firms simply do not have the time or resources to provide.

My strengths as a criminal defense attorney are reflected in the numerous recognitions and leadership positions I have received from the legal community. In addition to my certification as a specialist in criminal law from the Minnesota State Bar Association, the Ramsey County Public Defenders Office distinguished me as the attorney with the most jury trials in the district for two consecutive years. I have also been honored to serve as President of the Minnesota Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers, President of the Ramsey County Bar Association, and a representative to the American Bar Association House of Delegates.

• President of the Minnesota Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers.
• President of the Ramsey County Bar Association.
• A member of the MSBA Council.

I currently serve on the Board of the Neighborhood Justice Center. I am also a member of the Amdahl Inn of Court.
