The Shek Approach
Maxwell Shek
Affordable Criminal Defense with Real Results
Looking for a lawyer who will fight for you?
There’s no quick deal with me. I’m after the best results, and that means a fight. No matter how much time or effort is needed for your case, it will not cause me to advise you to plea. Prosecutors in the counties I work in know I’m not here to make their lives easier, and that helps me achieve a better outcome for you. I will fight for you, keep you involved in your case, and get you the best results.

Affordable Rates
Many defendants don’t have huge savings to spend on attorney fees. I cut costs on my end by doing the work myself so that I can pass those saving on to you. Cutting costs allows me to represent you at one of the most competitive rates on the market.
Real Results
This isn’t a flashy, downtown glamour firm. I’m about results. I deliberately avoid a high client volume so I can spend countless hours reviewing the evidence, poke holes in the prosecution’s case, and successfully outwork them at every step.
Dedicated Service
Results Don’t Lie
I frequently review the results achieved by other premier DWI and criminal defense firms in the Minneapolis, St. Paul area. Under the same fact patterns, I strive to always do better, and I do. When my clients tell me, “I feel like I’m not paying you enough,” or “This was the best decision I ever made,” I know my methods are effective, and they will be for you too. If you’ve been charged with a crime in Minneapolis, St. Paul, Golden Valley, St. Louis Park, Hopkins, Minnetonka or anywhere in greater Minnesota, I encourage you to call my office today. While I will fight injustice anywhere in Minnesota, I focus my practice in the following counties: Hennepin, Ramsey, Washington, Scott, Anoka, Chisago, Isanti, Wright, Dakota, Carver, and Sherburne.
