Hennepin County District Court handles criminal matters for Minneapolis. Minnesota DUI (DWI) carries criminal penalties including up to 90 days in jail for first offenses, with enhanced penalties for aggravating factors. Minneapolis's downtown and Uptown entertainment areas see active enforcement. For Somali and Arab non-citizens, Minnesota's diversion and stay-of-adjudication options can help avoid immigration consequences of conviction.

The drug charges process with an Arab lawyer

Our Arabic-speaking drug charges attorneys guide you through every step of your case in Minneapolis.

1

Emergency Response & Bail

Contact an Arabic-speaking defense attorney immediately after arrest. We work to secure your release, protect your rights, and prevent self-incriminating statements.

2

Search & Seizure Analysis

Examine the legality of every search, seizure, and stop. Fourth Amendment violations can result in evidence suppression — which often means case dismissal.

3

Evidence Challenge & Diversion Evaluation

Challenge lab results, chain of custody, and prosecution evidence. Evaluate eligibility for drug court, diversion programs, or treatment alternatives.

4

Resolution & Immigration Protection

Negotiate the best possible outcome while protecting immigration status. Drug convictions are among the most devastating for immigration — every plea must be carefully structured.

Client review
“Wrong place, wrong time. I was at a mall when a fight broke out and police arrested everyone in the area. Spent the night in jail. My lawyer argued I was a bystander, brought forward GPS data from my phone and testimony from the store clerk I was talking to. Case dismissed at the arraignment.”

Client review
“Got pulled over on Cedar Avenue after a community event. Failed the field sobriety test but I have a bad knee from back home. My lawyer argued the physical test was unreliable given my medical condition. Got it reduced to careless driving. No DUI on my record. Kept my bus driving job with Metro Transit.”

DUI
Client review
“My teenage daughter made a terrible mistake and shoplifted from Target. We were devastated. Our lawyer got her into a juvenile diversion program — community service and a theft awareness class. Her record is sealed. She's learned her lesson. The lawyer talked to her in Arabic and she actually listened.”
