Practice Areas
The Law Office of Lauren Campoli, PLLC handles nine criminal defense practice areas throughout the Minneapolis region. Domestic assault defense addresses charges arising from household and relationship-based incidents, with Campoli applying her trial experience to contest evidence and protect client rights. Expungements help clients clear records and move forward from past charges. Federal crimes defense extends representation into the federal court system for charges carrying significant penalties.
Homicide defense demands the preparation, legal knowledge, and courtroom composure that Campoli has demonstrated across more than 50 jury trials including first-degree murder proceedings. Theft and property crimes defense covers allegations of unlawful taking or property damage at various levels. DWI defense addresses driving while intoxicated charges and the license and criminal consequences that follow. Title IX proceedings address campus disciplinary matters with criminal overtones. Drug crime defense covers possession, sales, and conspiracy charges. Juvenile offense representation handles criminal matters involving minor clients.
Campoli’s prior experience on the prosecution side of criminal proceedings informs her current defense work, enabling identification of weaknesses in the government’s case that less experienced defense attorneys may miss. Defense attorneys who have only ever sat at the defense table approach cases from a single perspective. Campoli’s prosecution background gives her direct understanding of how cases are built, what evidentiary weaknesses prosecutors know about but hope defense counsel will not notice, and how charging decisions are made, all of which translate into more effective defense strategy.
The 87% trial success rate in state court reflects outcomes across a full range of case severity, from misdemeanor DWI matters to first-degree murder trials. Maintaining that rate across 50-plus personally tried jury trials demonstrates consistency rather than selective case acceptance. Many criminal defense firms settle the majority of cases and rarely try them to verdict; Campoli’s record reflects a practice built on genuine trial preparation and execution.
