Minnesota Criminal Diversion Programs

In Minnesota, several different diversion programs exist to help certain individuals avoid criminal consequences. These programs are designed to offer a fresh start to offenders who have no prior criminal history. Additionally, diversion programs help those who can’t make court appearances or afford to pay their fines.  The also spare at-risk offenders from high fines, revoked licenses, and criminal records. If you want to work to get a second-second chance then, contact an experienced Minnesota Criminal Defense Attorney.

How Does the Process Work?

I have worked hard to get clients into these programs.  If he/she accepts the invitation to participate, they may be able to avoid court appearances and charges may be dropped in some cases. Your defense attorney will know whether you are eligible for a diversion program. The prosecution may agree to a diversion program as part of a plea bargain. Agreeing to participate can help you avoid the stigma and hassle of a conviction. 

Several programs exist that may be ideal for your situation - from Drugs, to Theft, to Moving Violations to programs for juveniles.
