Criminal Defense for People Throughout Minnesota

A criminal accusation can leave you with urgent questions about your freedom, your record, your job and your family. Wherever your case begins in Minnesota, you deserve an opportunity to understand the allegations against you and the options available for protecting your future.

I am attorney Charles Gerlach. I offer a free, confidential initial consultation to people accused of crimes throughout Minnesota.

If you have been arrested, charged with a crime or contacted as part of a criminal investigation anywhere in Minnesota, call Gerlach Law at 952-952-9723 or contact me online to request a free consultation.

More Than 25 Years of Criminal Law Experience

I have worked in criminal law for more than 25 years. Before becoming a defense attorney, I spent more than two decades as a prosecutor, completed more than 100 jury trials and taught trial advocacy.

That experience allows me to evaluate a case from both sides: how the government is likely to build its argument and where the evidence or legal theory may be challenged. I represent clients facing misdemeanor, gross misdemeanor and felony allegations, including:

• DWI and impaired-driving charges
• Assault and domestic assault
• Drug offenses
• Theft, burglary and robbery
• Weapons charges
• Juvenile matters
• Sex-crime allegations
• Probation violations
• Other serious criminal charges

Every case receives an individual evaluation based on the evidence, the applicable law and the concerns that matter most to the client.
