Introduction
Three attorneys combining over fifty years of collective legal experience operate Capitol City Law Group, LLC from a St. Paul address that puts them within reach of the full Minnesota court system. The firm at 287 6th Street E #20, St. Paul, MN 55101 handles criminal defense and employment law, with phone access around the clock at (651) 705-8580. The attorneys include former criminal prosecutors who bring trial-tested knowledge to both criminal courtrooms and employment disputes. Spanish-speaking services are available, and initial case evaluations are provided at no charge.
Practice Areas
Capitol City Law Group handles two core practice areas with depth in each.
Criminal Defense. The firm defends clients against the full range of criminal charges in Minnesota courts, including:
- DWI offenses, including multiple-offense cases
- Drug crimes
- Expungements
- Federal charges
- Felony offenses
- Sex crimes
- Theft charges
- Violent crimes: armed robbery, assault, battery, domestic violence, murder, and weapons charges
The firm has secured documented results including reduced kidnapping charges, second-degree murder reductions, case dismissals based on unlawful searches, and dismissals of health privacy violation charges. Representation with former criminal prosecutors at the helm means clients face opposition attorneys who know how the other side builds its case.
Employment Law. The firm represents employees in disputes with employers, handling discrimination claims, retaliation cases, sexual harassment, wage disputes, wrongful termination, and health privacy violations. The same analytical discipline applied to criminal defense carries over into employment litigation.
Attorney Profiles
A.L. Brown, Marcus L. Almon, and Jennifer R. Congdon form the attorney team at Capitol City Law Group. Collectively, they bring more than fifty years of legal experience to their work. At least two members of the team are former criminal prosecutors, which shapes the firm’s approach to both criminal defense and employment matters. Their familiarity with how prosecutorial and institutional decisions are made gives clients a structural advantage in contested proceedings.
Location and Service Area
The firm is located at 287 6th Street E #20, St. Paul, MN 55101 and can be reached at (651) 705-8580 with 24-hour availability. Capitol City Law Group serves clients in Minneapolis, St. Paul, and throughout greater Minnesota. Cases handled at all court levels, including federal proceedings.
Client Focus
The firm serves individuals charged with crimes and employees who have experienced unlawful workplace treatment. The 24-hour availability reflects the reality that criminal arrests and urgent employment situations do not observe business hours. Spanish-speaking clients are served without language barrier, which extends the firm’s reach to a segment of the Minnesota population that often faces difficulty accessing legal representation. Free initial case evaluations reduce the barrier to getting professional legal advice early, when it matters most.
The firm employment law practice addresses a category of legal harm that affects a substantial number of working Minnesotans. Discrimination on the basis of race, sex, age, or disability, wage theft, retaliation for protected activities, and harassment create legal claims that employees frequently do not pursue because they do not know their rights or cannot afford an attorney. Capitol City Law Group represents employees in these disputes, applying the same analytical rigor the firm uses in criminal defense to the institutional conduct of employers.
The firm track record in criminal defense is worth examining in specific terms. Securing a reduction from a kidnapping charge is a result that requires both legal acuity and negotiating credibility with prosecutors. A second-degree murder reduction represents an outcome that prevents a defendant from facing the most severe sentencing consequences. Dismissals based on unlawful searches require attorneys who understand Fourth Amendment doctrine and can identify constitutional violations in how law enforcement collected evidence. These results reflect a firm that wins on substance rather than on procedural technicalities alone.
