Dan has helped me so much with my case and understanding it. He is easy to reach at any time. He is very upfront and forward with good or bad news. He does not make u sit and wonder. He is my top choice for a lawyer I have referred many people to him and they all say how happy they are.

I worked with Daniel Repka aka “Captain Justice” on a few cases I had unexpectedly picked up back to back in 2020, and I can't recommend him enough. He was incredible to work with, really thorough and efficient. He got me the best deals and even dismissals on a few of the charges, and helped me navigate the bureaucracy surrounding the cases. He stuck with me long after he needed to when follow up issues would arise. Repka was always quick to respond when I needed his help, and he made sure I was receiving the correct information. I hope I won't need a defense attorney in the future, but if I do, “Captain Justice” would definitely be my first choice hands down! Working with Repka was an absolute pleasure. He went above and beyond for me and my cases and I just can’t say enough GREAT things about him.

If we had more Dan Repka’s, the world would be a better, kinder place. This upbeat lawyer shows not only professionalism and knowledge but true caring. He knows the law, the ins and outs of the system, and what matters to both sides. This allowing him to speak clearly, eloquently, and to the point so that all sides take interest. He stood by my partner for over 18 months and danced a dance that helped bring justice and what was best for the in depth situation at hand.

I came to Dan with a headache of a case, with very little hope that anyone could do anything to help me. Dan listened to me, what I wanted, and worked through tons of nonsense, to get me the most desirable outcome possible. He had my back both in the court room and outside of it as well. He goes the extra mile and put a personal touch into his work that you don’t see very often in any profession. If you need a lawyer, call Captain Justice. You would be hard pressed to find anyone better.

Daniel Repka is one of the slickest attorneys that I've ever dealt with. No wonder he wins. He is professional honest caring and knows the law inside and out. He also has a great sense of humor (unlike most other attorneys). He freed my son from an annual Dreadful civil commitment. I'm very impressed. I will and would recommend Daniel Repka for all your attorney needs. He will fight for you and WIN!!!!. He also is reasonably priced. We are so blessed to have found and worked with Daniel Repka. We thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

People really want to Help you in Minnesota. The best state by far.

A.L. Brown, Marcus Almon and the Capitol City Law Group are experienced lawyers who are knowledgeable and provide an excellent service to their clients. They are honest, consistent and keep you informed with every detail pertaining to your action. They work hard to produce the best results. I recommend them because of their professionalism and expert opinions of law. If you are looking for a good criminal defense attorney, I highly recommend them!

I needed a lawyer for my son and a friend recommended Marcus. Under his guidance, we got beyond the best possible outcome for our situation! He was affordable, accessible and in constant communication with us. I highly recommend Capitol City Law Group if you ever need a lawyer.

I called today with a very personal and very upsetting issue that I was told could be handled by a law firm. After contacting 3 firms, I called Capitol and the person answering my call yawned and mumbled something unintelligible. I thought I had dialed the wrong number. When apologizing and saying that I was attempting to contact a law firm, I was told I had. I gave a brief description of what happened to me, and asked to speak to an attorney. I was told I was speaking to an attorney. I was hesitant but decided to continue with the call, started explaining the situation, a minute into my explanation I heard the person i was talking to YAWN. Asked if i should call back. Was told to keep explaining... within the next minute he interrupted me. This was a completely different attitude than I had been received by the first 3 firms I contacted. I'm telling this guy very sensitive information and is the reason I am now pursuing litigation with another firm, and this guy acts like it's an inconvenience?!? He told me to continue, but by this time I could clearly see that the fight in this attorney, who's apparently his own secretary, was gone. He hung up on me. If you're thinking about hiring anyone associated with this Corner Store law firm, I'd highly recommend not too. I reviewed their case success on the Minnesota bar association website, and it's a consistent pattern of bad results and upset clients. Anyone who gave this firm a good review, were offered a gift card. Capitol didn't lose a case for me... only because they never would be allowed to handle a case involving me. On God.

Thank you Capitol City Law Group especially A.L Brown and Marcus they both handled my case with class and professionalism couldn't ask for better Attorney's. They are very knowledgeable and know the law in and out and will fight for you until you win. I highly recommended for your lawyer needs!!

So far I think he will be worth it

I've used the Law Office of Eric A. Rice, LLC for related my business they were very experienced and professional business attorney to show good Character for our situation answering all our questions and calls. They handled my case perfectly and I am very satisfied with their service. A great law firm I would highly recommend if you need legal help.

I would absolutely recommend Eric A. Rice as a lawyer. If I ever need a lawyer again, I'm going to him. He was very attentive to my brother's case - driving without insurance and with an expired license. My brother had just graduated college and planned to move out of the state in a month or so when he got in trouble. We were so worried this traffic violation would seriously mess up my brother's plans to move and also drown him in fines.Thanks to Mr. Rice, the outcome was exactly what we had hoped for. Mr. Rice kept us informed on what we could expect and what his goals for the case were. He made us feel like we really had someone smart and dedicated on our side. Even the prosecutor said to my brother "you have a hell of a lawyer." I completely agree.

I’ve used The Law Office of Eric A. Rice (155 Wabasha St S #100 St Paul, MN 55107) couple of time they are very passionate about helping others. Very experienced professional St. Paul attorneys highly recommend

I have use this law office for several legal issues in the past and every time the quality has been superb. They are friendly and were very helpful when i required the legal help.

John kept in constant communication with me regarding my case and always kept things transparent. He was always companionate, understanding of my situation & never once judged me for anything. He was by my side through everything and made sure I was always fully informed on my choices. I highly recommend John Arechigo as a criminal defense attorney!

John is a legend when it comes to representing his clients. John was very detail orientated and professional as he handled my case swiftly and smoothly. Throughout the time that my case was pending he gave me enormous amounts of confidence which led to a great result that I'm extremely satisfied with. I would recommend him for anyone who is need of an amazing criminal defense attorney to guide though the legal process.

John made the entire process simple and stress free. He was thoughtful. caring and compassionate from start to finish. I would highly recommend his services for anyone.

My son was looking at doing 7 years in prison, Mr. Arechigo was able to get him probation with a stay of jail time not prison time but jail time. Mr. Arechigo was very helpful throughout the entire case and responded promptly to phone calls and text messages. After the case was done Mr. Arechigo was even able to help us get in contact with who we needed to at the police station to get back my son's belongings. If you are in need of a great Criminal Attorney Mr. Arechigo is the person who you want to represent you. Thank you Mr. Arechigo you did a excellent job.

I had a case that was 4 years old. Reached out to Arechigo & Stokka. Spoked with John. We both worked a plan executing how we can win my case. With all the knowledge and experience that he had. He knew exactly what strategy’s he need to win my case. Soon before my trial, my case was dismissed. HIGHLY recommend him and his firm. - Ger Yang
