Fantastic Experience

The expungement process can be extremely stressful and feel very overwhelming, thankfully, I hired Mr. Herman and he made the whole process a breeze. We never even met in person. I was able to fill out the information he needed over email, and he did the rest. He is very knowledgeable about the proce...ss and the laws surrounding when and how someone can apply for an expungement. He informed me and prepared me for everything that was going to happen, and he got the job done! Super easy and stress-free experience. I would highly recommend working with him.

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"I endorse this lawyer. Mark Herman is a well respected criminal defense attorney in Minnesota. In particular, he does an excellent job with helping people with expungements where they are eligible to do so. I would urge anyone with a lower level felony, gross misdemeanor or misdemeanor conviction who is now off probation to contact Mr. Herman to see if all or part of their criminal record is eligible to be expunged. This can help with finding housing or a new job."

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I heartily endorse this lawyer. I have known Mark Herman for 18 years, and I deeply value his insight, perspective and ability to address client matters - both criminal and DWI/DUI - conscientiously, responsibly, perceptively and accurately. He provides informed, knowledgeable and practical advice and counsel to his clients on realistic options and approaches that effectively address that client's situation and issues. Mark's respect and regard for all people is exemplary and sets a very high standard for the legal profession. I have referred many people in virtually every economic, social, racial and cultural strata to Mark without any hesitation because I know his clients and their interests will be extremely well-served and well-represented. He provides nothing less than the highest quality, diligent and thoroughly professional legal representation services. He'd be the first attorney I'd go to if I or a family member needed representation in his practice areas."
