Fargo Public Defender Office

I have had nothing but amazing help from the folks at the Public Defender office in Fargo...Dan Bertsch and Elizabeth Brainard are amazing people...

Remember the article, trial lawyers don't have a track record of being very honest. The ethical violations and the toxic behavior in this agency that is going down on our tax dollars is absolutely despicable. We all studied ethics in political science and I am demanding that everybody in that office take a refresher course. Complaints have been sent to the disciplinary board.

Laura Reynolds handled my case in a professional and mannerly order. She was very detailed in her discussions with me and my case. Amy their paralegal was quick to file the appropriate paperwork for the expungement and I couldn’t be more grateful for their help. I wish everyone who was involved the best. Sincerely, Rob

The defenders out of this office are top notch. I started with one amazing lawyer that left me highly confident then was handed off to an extraordinary lawyer. Mr. Monte Mertz. Very pleased with their credentials and services this far!

Lots of return business. And Judges send dozens of people to them every week. Must be good. Dogs on site provide stress relief and entertainment.

Liz Brainard is absolutely wonderful. She went above and beyond to help me. Very kind, caring, and incredibly hard working. Thank you, again, Liz!

Why can't anyone answer the phone... and really unprofessional to come up with all sorts of chargers and fines must mean some underhand deals smh life must not be great for anyone ""defending""
