Why This Firm?
When a case is serious — sex crimes, homicide, federal indictment, multi-defendant conspiracy — many criminal defense firms will quietly hand you off to a less complex matter. Caplan & Tamburino takes the hard cases. They have for 40+ years.
Allan Caplan's background as a former Hennepin County prosecutor gives the firm something rare: actual insight into how the state thinks. They know which assistant county attorneys move on cases, which negotiate sensibly, and where the leverage actually lies. That insider perspective — combined with Tamburino's MSBA Criminal Law Specialist board certification — is why judges and prosecutors take their calls seriously.

What Clients Say
“False accusation that could have ended my career and my freedom. Joe Tamburino took it to trial — not guilty on all counts. I'd have lost everything with a lesser lawyer. There's no second chance with this kind of charge. Don't cheap out.”
“Caught up in a federal conspiracy indictment, looking at a 10-year mandatory minimum. Allan negotiated a cooperation agreement that brought it down to under three years with credit for time served. Saved my life.”
“Third DWI, refusal, prior felony. I thought I was done. They got me into Drug Court, kept me out of prison, and I'm two years sober. They did the legal work and then some.”
