Thomas Aaron Wilson

Tom is an amazing attorney. He’s well prepared, knows what he needs to do to win, and commits his effort entirely to his client. I have had Tom Wilson represent me twice in the last 6 years. Both times to clear up my past from an unfortunate night I had 20 years ago. First, a restoration of firearm... privileges and second, a Pardon. For both cases he had me fill out all the necessary information about myself including affidavits from my peers. The firearm case lasted all of five minutes and I left with my rights restored. On the pardon he had everything fully prepared so there were no surprises for either the pardon board or me at the time of the meeting. If you show up to a pardon meeting thinking you’re going to keep some information from the pardon board you’ll be sorely mistaken. The committee sees everything and asks for thorough explanation. Tom had everything laid out for them so it went as smoothly as a pardon meeting can go. Again, my pardon was granted and I am a happy customer. Especially considering only about 30% of the pardons that day were granted.

I was subject to a lifetime ban for a nonviolent crime when I was 19. After having lost my rights for 23 years I contacted Thomas and several other attorneys. He was by for the most knowledgeable regarding my restrictions. The entire process took a while but it was well worth the wait. He was very pa...tient with me and answered all of my questions. Our day in court let Mr Wilson show his skill. I didn't have to say a word and the judge was impressed enough to make a decision that day. His preparation was second to none leaving me with a long overdue restoration on my rights. I would recommend him to everyone.

Being a defendant in a criminal matter is never easy -- sorting between choices for an attorney often makes the process even more stressful. That all changed when I met Mr. Wilson, who provided a steady and powerful voice that ultimately saw my criminal charge dismissed with prejudice. Many attor...neys act as though they're the best thing to happen to you in a crappy situation -- Thomas Wilson proves he is, not by handholding and table-pounding, but through his humility and skill. In my opinion, he is the finest criminal defense attorney in Minnesota. But don't ask him--he'll just say he's doing his job. No one deserves such a title more than Mr. Wilson, and wears it less.
