Eric was great. He was knowledgeable and aggressive with our case, without being off-putting or rude. He makes you feel important, and like you are his only priority. Highly recommend, and while we don't ever want to have to need to call Eric again, if the need ever arises, we will definitely call Eric again. Many thanks to Eric!

Sarah
Eric and his team were extremely careful with our story, details and approach. Eric was passionate about making sure I felt ready for the hearing and all the events leading us to the hearing date. I was so determined to be SOLID and tell the truth of our story. Our family needed this decision to go our way, we stuck together and we were honest in exactly what happened. Eric was extremely supportive, he listened and he worked hard to achieve the outcome we had hoped for. It was a lengthy process, but he never lost sight of details and our case needed to be heard the way it was. I trusted Eric immediately and I knew this would be a battle against a whole department of employees, a organization of professionals that are supposed to keep vulnerable adults safe. I am appalled at the way we were treated, accused and made to feel that we had done something illegal. That was NOT the case, and Eric and his team helped us prove our case. WE WON and we are proud of his dedication to us, and the outcome. Thank you all sincerely, we are so grateful. Shelly

Shelly
From the moment my husband first called Lexie, we were greeted with professionalism and genuine concern, Eric and Lexie got to work right away on our case and sent an appeal the same day we hired them, even with Covid protocols and our different schedules, we were able to meet several times to discuss our case, when we met with Eric, we finally got some relief that we were no longer on our own trying to fight our battle, we had someone on our side to stand up for us and believe in us. He knew the right path to take on our case and was also able to help the Judge see our case in a new light, we are eternally grateful that our case was overturned. If you are looking for the best attorney’s and someone who will fight relentlessly for you, look no further than Anderson Defense. We highly recommend them!!

It was a great privilege to have Eric as an attorney, he helped me during a difficult time with a few cases in a cost effective way. Eric is very knowledgeable, professional, prompt , and honest. Eric valued my opinions and reassured my doubts. He always kept me updated. I would definitely recommend him and his team. I can’t say enough good things about him and Lexi Stein. I was happy with the outcome, it was better than what I expected.

furqan
I recently retained Mr. Anderson when my license was put into a temporary immediate suspension. Unfortunately I hired him three months later due to money issues, but if I would've known then what would happen, I would've retained him right away. Mr. Anderson always responded in a timely matter, made sure I understood what was going on and most importantly made me feel he was listening to my needs and concerns. In the end, Mr. Anderson made the process speed up, he was very knowledgeable with my concerns, and I recieved my license back. I would highly recommend retaining Mr. Eric Anderson for your legal needs.Sincerely Cori

Cori

Andy
Eric is a great attorney. Strong skill set, response was quick, while talking to him about my case he was very attentive and guided me in the right direction of the law. I would highly recommend him as an attorney in representation against the boards, his fees are very reasonable and the support he showed during the duration of the case was outstanding. Hard working and dedication describe Eric, thanks.

Lexi & Eric are some of the most knowledgeable attorneys I have come across ! They are ambitious to get you the results you need . Highly recommended .

cara
Highly professional and effective. Would recommend to anyone

Nick
Eric is a brilliant lawyer and i owe him a great deal for helping me keep my professional license. He made an argument (in witting) on my behalf to the board review committee so compelling my hearing only took 10-15min and the case was dismissed. And oh, his service fee was only a fraction of what others had quoted me when i shopped around a bit before setting with him. Thank you and all the staff at Anderson defense!!!

Mike
Eric was professional and attentive to my case, great communication throughout the entire process, felt like I had a real fighter in my corner from the beginning all the way till the end.... if I ever have any other issues, he will be the 1st person I call

Dave

Eric is a very good lawyer, he works hard to get results. Eric was a complete pro and knows exactly how to operate in court. 5 stars is not enough! Thank you Eric for all your help!

Jan
I must say Eric Anderson is the best lawyer you will find to help you in every way possible with your case! He went above and beyond with our case! From day one he made sure to listen to our concerns very carefully, answer any questions we had and do everything in his power to guide us through this difficult time. He was always available to answer any questions we had. He really looked into every detail with a close eye. Eric treated us like we were his number one priority and he was here for us all the time. Through out our entire case he worked very hard to make sure we had the best outcome. He worked all hours, answered our questions even on some late evenings and weekends and anytime we had a question or concern. He contacted every possible person he could to ensure each detail and person affecting our case knew what needed to be done. Even after he did an exceptional job with helping us win our case, giving back our livelihood and hope for the future, he stuck by our side to make sure everything was done correctly and that we are where we needed to be. He treated us like we were family! I must say Eric Anderson is by far the best lawyer you will find to help you with your case! I would recommend him to all my family and friends! Thank you Eric for everything!

MakeShift
Anderson Defense was able to give me clear straight to the point advise. I have worked with several lawyers in the past, but would only call Eric Anderson for all future legal advise. Eric is a great guy and an even better attorney, he will not let you down!

Brent
Anderson defense did an awesome job with my case. The attorney attend the police interview held about 60 miles away from Twin Cities and provided me with legal aids. They responded quickly and accurately. I highly recommend them to all who have CPS issues.

Woojae
Think I need Eric!!🕥

Cory
Eric does a fantastic job! His specialized expertise, ability to listen and understand a complex situation quickly, excellent communication, and fierce advocacy are what sets him apart from others and exceeded my expectations. I would highly recommend Eric and Anderson Defense to anyone needing effective, high quality representation.

Carrie
The team at Anderson Defense, Eric Anderson and Lexie Stein, are second to none. Not only are they prepared, informed, responsive, effective, fearless, and dedicated, but they also do a great job ensuring their clients comfort and safety. I would recommend this firm to anyone for any legal needs. They are world class and their successful outcomes are evidence of that!

Stephen
Attorney Anderson guided me through one of the most challenging situations I have ever endured.
Recognizing my unfamiliarity in the process my situation entailed, Eric was thorough, efficient, and honest in his communications.
The guidance and direct communication provided, made the extremely difficult circumstances much more manageable.
Eric's consistent aggressive yet poised approach helped in aiding a favorable outcome to my case. I couldn't be more grateful.

Molly
Lexie Stein is a great lawyer! I found her through the DUI Directory (for something other than a DUI) and had no previous experience with her – nevertheless, she showed up the next day and gave me excellent legal advice at a very fair price. What is even better, was that the charges were all Dismissed! Furthermore, she noticed some discrepancies with the Prosecution and had them fixed so that I was not adversely effected by them in the future. I highly recommend her for your defense needs. Give her a call!

Paul
We hired Anderson Defense to represent us on a family matter. Eric was very informative and reassuring at a time when we needed some answers. Eric is a quick study and we made progress right away. I would recommend him to anyone! By the way he is a really nice guy, and not like most attorneys you will meet.

Linda
top firm, top lawyers go the extra mile for their clients

Zachary
Anderson Defense really came though for me and my family. I had some child protection issues and also some issues effecting my profession license and lets just say I was very impressed with the results. Eric is very good at what he does. I’ve called him on multiple occasions and he really has helped me and my family out. I wish I could give more than 5 stars because man does he deserve it. Kodos to the Andersen Defense team.

RawRaw
Anderson defense are very friendly workers and do their best to help in the situation they are trained in.

I highly recommend Anderson Defense! Eric was hard working and did a fantastic job with my criminal case. I was able to get a stay of adjudication with Eric representing me. I can’t thank him enough for what he has done. Awesome attorney and highly professional!

Dylan
Eric Anderson and his team deserve this review, as it is my first reveiw I have ever done. I am so thankful for having him on my side during my unfortunate situation. Eric and his team worked very hard and answered every question I had, due to being scared and so unsure of what was happening. I wouldnt recommend anyone else for the job when it concerns cps and other issues. It worked out for our side and I am so greatful!!!

Alexandra
Eric and His team are amazing attorneys we definitely were in a situation we very expected to be in but they made us feel like we had the confidence to get through together as a team even when we felt discouraged They really stand by you in your hour of need and fight with you until the end. We definitely recommend Eric and his team they are very knowledge and keep you in the loop with what’s going on with your case. They are truly the best. Thank you for everything.

Leah
Dependable and proficient. Would highly recommend to family and friends.

Sharilyn
Eric is an incredible guy and a true professional. We had a family situation come up that required an attorney. Eric and his team provided the support and expertise in the area of criminal defense that was exactly what we needed. We were dealing with our teenage son who has special needs and the weight of an arrest and domestic assault charge that ensued following a 911 call that he had placed. Eric guided us through the Dakota County court process which ultimately led to the charges being dropped and an expungement of the arrest record. The outcome of our case could not have turned out any better thanks to Eric. I highly recommend him and his team.

J
You get the best feeling from these people because they know the child protection laws better than most individuals that are not lawyers. They will give it to you straight forward step by step I was there many years ago and talk to the lawyers there at that office and now here I am I'm going to be going back

Richard
Phenomenal so far! Eric always calls, texts, and emails to keep me updated. He's very informative and good at what he does. So glad I found him.

SKP
Incredibly knowledgeable and professional, would highly recommend.

Anna
Excellent service.

Brian
Anderson Defense in Minneapolis Minnesota has been so great too me since the year of 2017!

I caught a case concerning Maltreatment and with the help of God and Anderson Defense i was able too be found INNOCENT this year 2021!

I am so grateful too Anderson and Lexi for carrying me through this journey. I can recommend this company too anyone they will always be at your need

Theresa
Awesome lawyer who will fight his hardest to the end! Never had to worry about him showing up and will always get back to you right away when you call. I was shown nothing but respect! Very affordable too! If you are unsure where to start or who to call, I cannot recommend Eric Anderson enough!

Michael
kept me posted on everything.nogotiated my best results, well done

lew
Excellent attorneys. Very knowledgeable....expensive but worth the money especially if there's children involved.

Laura
Eric is whip smart and awesome at what he does. He helped me navigate a stressful court situation with the cautious optimism I'd expect from a lawyer. He was responsive to the many questions I had during my case and felt well taken care of-I would highly recommend him!

K
Lexie Stein has been extremely helpful. Very easy to talk to and understanding about my situation. I could not ask for a better attorney to help me through my hard times. Would recommend 10/10!

Clint
Anderson Defense are the attorneys you want on your side. Their attention to detail and ability to deliver positive results are beyond extraordinary. I highly recommend retaining them.

Lucas
Anderson Defense has the knowledge and instincts needed to protect your rights. Highly recommended for the twin city area.

G4kalemk
Very helpful lawyer! Although he was the second lawyer on my case, he was very caring and diligent. He helped me with my child protection case. I feel like he deserves all the money in the world for what he did for me and my family. I am very grateful of him and would highly recommend him. The good thing about him he works from the heart. And brought my family back together as one. Thanks Eric!!! God bless.

Bille
I would highly recommend them. Especially for a CHIPS case. My daughter went from being told to prepare to lose her kids with less than a 40% chance to keep them... to case closed within 3 months. They were quick to understand the case even though they came in toward the end. Our previous lawyer could not get a hearing for months into the future but Eric and Lexie were able to get us in front of the judge within 2 weeks of hiring them. They care about their clients. Worth the money.

Jean
Eric is terrific. If you are looking for a a trustworthy and aggressive lawyer then hire him. I have used many lawyers in the past but Eric is by far the most ruthless. He is not afraid to speak his mind against opposing counsel and in court and his cross-examination skills are excellent. He is also very professional.

Daniel
I highly recommend Eric, he represented me above and beyond expectation. He makes you feel like heis really on your side in and out of the court room.

David
Lexie was such a big help to me. Before reaching out to her I was so stressed and worried about everything. She reassured me that she would do everything she could to help me get the best outcome possible for my case. I will forever be grateful to her for all the time and effort she put into handling my case and for relieving so much of my stress.

Abigail
Fantastic lawyers. Very friendly, personable, and effective. Very pleased

Adam
Anderson Defense was wonderful during my case. He was professional and respectful. I would recommend him. He has a wealth of knowledge in his field.

Diana
Had a very serious situation, Eric was able to immediately and professionally resolve the situation. He took away any worries I had and did a great job resolving and protecting my family.

Brad
Eric made me feel relaxed throughout my case. He explained everything I needed to know and communicated with me in a timely manner. He's a great guy and in my opinion one of the best in Minnesota. He was there for me from the beginning to the end, explaining and breaking down the issues to the simplest. If I am to recommend someone for criminal defense, child abuse and juvenile cases, I'll recommend Eric Anderson of Anderson Defense in a heartbeat.

Matthew
Eric and Lexie were wonderful to work with from start to finish. They are confident, professional, bright and very personable. I would recommend these two to anyone I could!

Molly
I can not say enough great things about the Anderson Defense team. They listen, genuinely care, are professional, very responsive, and willing to be there for you in your time of need. I had a different lawyer to start with and when it became clear that her team was not equipped to handle my case, I researched around and found the Anderson Defense team. I was quickly relieved after the first conversation with Eric because he understood the situation and knew who the people on the other side were. They were able to find out more, what was really going on in one week, than my former attorney was able to gather in 4 months. Don't wait! Don't hesitate! Always choose the Anderson Defense team! Make sure your lawyers know all the players involved! It made all the difference for me and I know it will for you too.

Richard
I highly recommend Anderson Defense, Eric and Lexie were very attentive, aggressive and well knowledgeable. We won my case! I am very thankful I found this firm. Thank you Eric and Lexie you both did an excellent job!! I can't thank you both enough.

Te
When our family recently found ourselves facing an emergency that required legal representation, we reached out to Eric Anderson and Lexie Stein at Anderson Defense. From the start, Eric and Lexie were responsive, professional, and passionate about defending our rights and providing us inimitable legal representation. Every step of the way, Eric provided us thoughtful, knowledgeable counsel and was very attuned to our lack of experience navigating the county system and even our emotional needs during a difficult time for our family. If you are looking for competent, professional attorneys who understand and can help you navigate complex legal situations, Eric and Lexie are the best choices. Thank you, Anderson Defense, for putting our family first.

Howard
Choosing Anderson defense is the best investment you will ever make. Their knowledge and professionalism is outstanding. They provide you with their undivided attention making your case priority. They took our phone calls at all hours, called or texted back on a timely basis. Sometimes acted as counselors when emotions were high calming us and reassuring us as needed. Thank you Anderson Defense for being the most Relentless Bulldog Attorney! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THEIR SERVICES!

Eric Anderson had been very helpful with my case. Easy to get ahold of, very personable.

Michael
I have relied on Anderson Defense several times over the past 5-6 years. They have proven responsive, generous of time and talent, and (most importantly for me) relatable and non judgmental of circumstances that I have been in.

Roderic

Eric is a great lawyer along with his team. They were very good to me and helped me get out of the situation i was in which I was very happy with the results. He took on my criminal case and my cps case and it was well worth it. I was facing 4 level one felonies which resulted in probation and one misdemeanor. My cps case is officially closed and I now have full custody of my children. Eric is a good guy and is willing to work out a payment plan if need be. I can honestly say I’m very satisfied with everything he’s done for me and I’m glad I chose Eric to represent me. Thank you Eric and team, you guys were awesome and very professional!!!

Andrew
Laxie was an amazing lawyer she definitely made sure my voice was heard!

Constance
I hired Eric later than I should have. My ex-wife got into some trouble and had a chips case opened on her. I was automatically included as a third party because I was a biological father and like an idiot did not hire an attorney, thinking I would be fine, as I didn't nor ever had I been in trouble. I ended up voluntarily signing a case plan which put me on conditions much like probation. Even though I had never been in trouble I was refrained from even having one drop of alcohol. I took at least 1 u.a. per week, sometimes more. Had multiple people from the county; u.a. guy, social worker, guardian ad litem, in home specialist etc. knocking on my door every week, all while trying to live my life, raise kids and work etc. After months I finally got sick of being put through the ringer. I hired an attorney and he didn't do anything to represent me, sat quietly and took my money. Finally I found eric, hired him, talked to him multiple times before court. First appearance by Mr. Anderson= case closed, jurisdiction over my freedom and life is expired. Even if you feel you shouldn't need an attorney, at least consult with one and when that time comes, Mr. Eric Anderson is your man! He is professional and very knowledgeable. I would definatly hire him again! Thanks again Eric!!

Jacob
I have had such a wonderful experience with Lexie at Anderson Defense! From the beginning of everything when I was initially charged she offered me so much comfort and reassurance. She is confident, competent and extremely knowledgeable in her craft. Lexie truly went above and beyond for me. Every small question I had for her, I was able to send her a simple text and she’d get right back to me with an answer. She pushed for dismissal of charges and was consistent with follow through. Ultimately my charges were dismissed and I am so so happy! WELL worth the money! Go with Anderson Defense!

Elizabeth
Eric and Lexie were easy to work with, very knowledgeable and respectful to us at all times. I would highly recommend Anderson Defense for your legal representation needs.

Janet
I've never written a review but I felt Eric Anderson deserved to be recognized for being an amazing attorney who I'm forever grateful to! I was dealing with cps which is obviously terrible because you feel helpless as a parent and our kids we love the most Eric he understands that! If you want an attorney who will work hard at protecting those who matter most to you and fighting to keep your family a family then you definitely want Eric Anderson! I can never give him enough stars referrals or positive reviews for what he did and getting my cps case closed! Calling him was the best decision I made for my family! Thank you Anderson Defense and thank you Eric from my family and I we are forever grateful!

Amanda
Eric was very attentive to detail and cared about my legal issues. Can’t recommend him enough!

Patrick
Anderson Defense are the attorneys you want representing you. They are hard working attorneys who go above and beyond to make themselves available to their clients and Eric and Lexie really know what they’re doing. Absolutely 10/10 would recommend.

Clementine
Very helpful and informative

Dominique
Anderson Defense did amazing with my case. I’m very grateful for Eric & Lexie. They helped my family and I so much & got the case closed. Great attorneys, & professional. I highly recommend!

Hilda
Eric was very attentive to detail and cared about my legal issues. Can’t recommend him enough!

Quid
Currently went through Anderson Defense for help and had Lexie Stein as my attorney. She was wonderful and helped keep my anxiety down and answered all my questions I had. She was very accommodating and helpful in my situation and helped get the best option I could get!

Brianna
I am an attorney and recommend Anderson Defense to anyone facing real life criminal or child protection issues as well as professional licensing issues. Eric and Lexie are an excellent team! Highly recommend!

Jessica
Eric was knowledgeable on the details & content of my case, he kept me updated & asked questions. His response to the board was well written & answered each allegation in full detail, leaving nothing much to question. His thoroughness in his written responses drastically decreased the amount of questions asked by the board in my panel review hearing. They quickly came to a conclusion & dismissed/closed my case. If it wasn't for Eric, I probably would not have had such a positive outcome. I highly recommend him.

Lori
The attorney that will never disappoint you, my experience with ANDERSON DEFENCE means the whole world world to me before the eyes of the Lord. They DID WON my disqualification case which I had lost hope, their charges too is reasonable, they answer your messages, phone calls and emails within a timely manner. The way they talk to you makes you feel you are in heaven. I had a first Attorney who was charging me $250 per hour and disappointed me the way I can't tell it all as he made me to have anxiety, emotionally unstable and lost hope in mylife BUT ANDERSON DEFENCE made me to see life during my dark moments and FINALLY THEY WON MY CASE. ANDERSON DEFENCE IS THE BEST QUALITY SERVICES I CAN RECOMMEND TO WHOEVER IS STUCK OUT HERE. THANKS THANKS A MILLION TIMES ANDERSON FOR YOUR WONDERFUL JOB .YOU'RE AWESOME ATTORNEY.

Ba
The team at Anderson defense are Amazing. They work at an impressive speed. (Seriously) Unfortunately for us, we needed Eric over memorial weekend, he got right on it! I'm so glad we hired him, even if it's just for peace of mind. Both Eric and Lexie were so kind to us, while I dealt with the worst situation I have ever been through. Eric listened, provided professional council, he is trustworthy, knowledgeable, and officially restored my faith in humanity. If I ever need a lawyer again, I'm calling Anderson Defense! Just skip the run-around, I can't recommend them enough.

Steph
They saved my kids from potentially being taken away from their mother.. The difference between them and our previous lawyer was tremendous!! If we would've stuck with our old lawyer, I truly believe that my newborn would not be snuggling with her mom right now. Expensive but well worth money! (Especially since a flat rate is probably much cheaper than others hourly anyways.) I would highly recommend them to anyone with a CHIPS case. Especially if you may be facing termination! My case went from literally them saying they were filing a petition to terminate my parental rights (which ended up never even happening) to my case being closed and me having my kids back within like 3 months. Thank you so much for everything!

Jessica
I was represented by Eric about three years ago. He helped me through my CPS case. He was very professional and responded quickly to any questions I had. I would definitely recommend him.

Maria
Best thing I ever did was hire Eric Anderson. I had 2 attorneys prior to him. Eric was very professional, aggressive, and knowledgeable. My case was a very complicated case because it was a child abuse misdiagnosis. He made me feel important and let the court know from day one that the county was not moving forward for reunification. Although the court was being biased, in trial they saw the truth and the TPR was dismissed stating that our due process was violated, the county was unfair and was selectively bias.
From day one, Eric started looking for evidence that would support my case. He would return my calls and/or text messages right away. He Stayed late getting the case together and talking to me before trial even if it was 11:00pm or midnight. He was and is the best attorney anyone can ever have. Eric Anderson was worth very single penny. I will definitely always recommend him. He’s awesome!!!

Sonia
Eric Anderson of Anderson Defense proved to be the right choice in legal representation. In every instance he was dedicated and fought for the best possible outcome for myself and family. I would strongly recommend his services to anyone seeking legal representation.

My family was attacked by my former wife! It was the worst feeling to know that a person can get away with making up stories and no one will stop them! When you are in need of help Eric and his team will come through for you! I would recommend Eric to anyone in need of leagal help, he is wonderful. My family is back in tact and we have Anderson defense to that for it.

Gary

Anderson defense helped me against dhs, if you are a nurse and need legal representation - choose Eric. He will fight your case w every angle. We won… dhs were wrongfully were trying to accuse me of maltreatment. I would choose Eric again, he knew every step and process snd knew how things would turn out. He was quick w replies and answered all of my questions and without making me feel weird. Very professional

Mr. Anderson was a great help in a completely avoidable altercation. Very knowledgeable, available, trustworthy and handled things with expediency and foresight. Highly recommended.

Eric was great. He was knowledgeable and aggressive with our case, without being off-putting or rude. He makes you feel important, and like you are his only priority. Highly recommend, and while we don't ever want to have to need to call Eric again, if the need ever arises, we will definitely call Eric again. Many thanks to Eric!

I must say Eric Anderson is the best lawyer you will find to help you in every way possible with your case! He went above and beyond with our case! From day one he made sure to listen to our concerns very carefully, answer any questions we had and do everything in his power to guide us through this difficult time. He was always available to answer any questions we had. He really looked into every detail with a close eye. Eric treated us like we were his number one priority and he was here for us all the time. Through out our entire case he worked very hard to make sure we had the best outcome. He worked all hours, answered our questions even on some late evenings and weekends and anytime we had a question or concern. He contacted every possible person he could to ensure each detail and person affecting our case knew what needed to be done. Even after he did an exceptional job with helping us win our case, giving back our livelihood and hope for the future, he stuck by our side to make sure everything was done correctly and that we are where we needed to be. He treated us like we were family! I must say Eric Anderson is by far the best lawyer you will find to help you with your case! I would recommend him to all my family and friends! Thank you Eric for everything!

I have had such a wonderful experience with Lexie at Anderson Defense! From the beginning of everything when I was initially charged she offered me so much comfort and reassurance. She is confident, competent and extremely knowledgeable in her craft.

Lexie truly went above and beyond for me. Every small question I had for her, I was able to send her a simple text and she’d get right back to me with an answer. She pushed for dismissal of charges and was consistent with follow through.

Ultimately my charges were dismissed and I am so so happy! WELL worth the money! Go with Anderson Defense!

Gabrielle
When our family recently found ourselves facing an emergency that required legal representation, we reached out to Eric Anderson and Lexie Stein at Anderson Defense. From the start, Eric and Lexie were responsive, professional, and passionate about defending our rights and providing us inimitable legal representation.

Every step of the way, Eric provided us thoughtful, knowledgeable counsel and was very attuned to our lack of experience navigating the county system and even our emotional needs during a difficult time for our family. If you are looking for competent, professional attorneys who understand and can help you navigate complex legal situations, Eric and Lexie are the best choices. Thank you, Anderson Defense, for putting our family first.
