"The love of liberty is the love of others; the love of power is the love of ourselves."
    - William Hazlitt, English essayist (1778 - 1830)


Liberty Defender
The Torch of Liberty Lights The Way.

Innocence is not enough...
"There but for the grace of God, go I:"  When the government targets you - with a police investigation or prosecution - the experience is traumatic.  What takes years to build up can be quickly destroyed.  The initial cause could be police incompetence, sloth or misconduct; a momentary lapse of judgment - even a false witness, an uncorroborated accusation.  Brought in early, good legal help can change the course of events.


The courts are a competitive arena.  The police are the government's soldiers, "targeting" people for destruction, in the name of the law.  Many prosecutors care more about "winning" than about justice.  Expediency is the government's top priority - the search for the truth is not.  It's "fast-food justice."  Will you be an easy target?  Will you be their next prey?  You don't have to be another statistic.  Good legal counsel can protect you.

Avoid becoming another statistic:  The conviction rolls are filled with the names of innocent people; conveniently blamed; casually convicted of crimes they never committed.  The prisons of Minnesota hold many falsely convicted people. 
The United States has the highest per capita incarceration rate in the world.  Don't let it happen to you.  With good legal help, we can fight and you can win!


How could juries, lawyers, judges, courts and police fail us so? 
Why are so many innocent people wrongfully prosecuted?  How are so many falsely convicted? 

According to non-profit justice advocacy group 
The Innocence Project, the most common reasons are:
•  Eyewitness Misidentification
•  Unreliable or Limited Science
•  False Confessions  
•  Forensic Science Fraud or Misconduct
•  Government Misconduct
•  Informants or Snitches
•  Bad Lawyering

Do you need a good Minnesota Defense Lawyer? 
The best attorney in a case helps one person, and by extension society at large, using all his skills, experience and judgment to fight for that person - to develop and execute the best defense possible.  

Wishful thinking is not the path to Liberty and Justice.  The law is a tool.  It is a tool that can be used to help, to hurt, or not be used at all.  The choice is yours.  The so-called legal system is really just people.  People are not perfect and make mistakes - even sometimes mistakes like believing false accusations.

A good Minnesota defense attorney can use the law as a tool to help persuade people where is the truth, where is justice, the importance of liberty.  Gallagher has helped many people win their cases, for over twenty-one years so far.
