Client’s Employment Prospects Saved in Scott Co. Felony Theft Case

Tuesday, May 11th, 2010

Defense attorney Max A. Keller’s client was charged with a felony theft.  In a Scott County Case resolved on May 6, Max A. Keller successfully resolved his client’s felony theft case so that she got no conviction.  She is studying to be a dental hygenist.  But, had she gotten a felony conviction, she would probably be unable to work as a dental assistant, or in any other job.  And she would find it very hard to get housing. As a result of Keller Law Offices work in this case, the client will be able to finish her schooling knowing that she can still put her education to work and get a good job in the dental field.  The client received a Stay of Adjudication on her Scott County felony theft case, meaning that she gets on conviction on her record , and will be able to live her life as she planned.  The client of Keller Law Offices who escaped a felony theft conviction in Scott County was extremely pleased.

License Returned and Implied Consent Case Won for Client Who Legal Use of Prescription Drugs Caused him to get a DWI

Sunday, April 4th, 2010

Leading DWI Criminal Defense Attorney Max Keller won another DWI Implied Consent License Revocation case this week: The Attorney General’s Office agreed to Rescind the license Revocation and return the Driver’s License to Mr. Keller’s client. The Client lived in Hennepin County, but had gotten a DL Revocation in Kanabec County under the Implied Consent Law as a result of a one-car accident.  But, he was never charged with the crime of DWI.  As a result of losing his license, however, he lost his good job as a diesel mechanic, which required him to have a CDL or Commercial Driver’s License.  Due to using a prescribed medicine at the prescribed dose, he fell asleep at the wheel, causing his car to go into the ditch. Now, his medication has been adjusted so he will not fall asleep while driving. With his regular license and his CDL back, he will now be able to get this job back with a clean driving record.

Charges Dismissed in Minneapolis Traffic Case

Tuesday, November 17th, 2009

Earlier this month, Keller Law Offices secured the dismissal of a traffic ticket in Minneapolis on the day of trial.  Attorney Max Keller demanded all the police reports and tapes and the presence of the police officer at trial.  Even though he was a law-abiding bus driver, our client was falsely accused of an traffic offense due to slippery, snowy conditions.  The ticket was clearly unjust since the alleged violation was caused by the snow and not by any negligence on our client’s part.  Max Keller was able to obtain a CWOP or continuance without plea (similar to a continuance for dismissal or CFD) meaning that Max’s client got no conviction on his record.  Because he holds a Commercial Driver’s License or CDL, This favorable outcome was very important to our client, as he did not want to get a conviction in order to avoid harm to his CDL.  Needless to say, the client was very please with the outcome.  (27-CR-09-12039)

Ramsey Co. Victory for 13 Year Old: Keeping a Clean Record–No Felony Conviction, No Sex Offender Registration

Friday, October 16th, 2009

Keller Law Offices was pleased to represent a 13 year old young man recently in Ramsey County.  He faced possibly being charged with a first degree criminal sexual conduct charge, which would have been a felony:  resulting in a ban on his possessing firearms AND worse, lifetime registration as a sex offender.  Max Keller was able to engineer a settlement with the prosecutor whereby his young client admitted to a gross misdemeanor 5th degree criminal sexual conduct (CSC) charge rather than a First Degree CSC  felony.  As a result, Max’s client served no additional jail time, did not have to register as a sex offender, and did not face a ban on possessing firearms as an adult.  The client and his parents were very happy.
