My issue didn't actually make it into the courtroom, I needed someone to advocate for me from a position of having experience with the law. And I needed someone to negotiate for me, who was not emotionally attached to a situation and would be much more capable than me maintaining a level head while speaking on my behalf. Which are definitely qualities that a good criminal defense attorney should have. Mr DeMarco has what could best be described as a bulldog attitude concerning litigation. Aggressive, determined, and possessive of a personality that is charismatic, but carries an air of menace. which is thankfully directed towards his opponents on your behalf. His partner at the time Jorma Cavaleri was also quite skilled. Very deep thinking, verbose, and jovial. They actually complimented each other quite well as a team. At least personality-wise as I've said my matter never made it into a courtroom. Just the same they did manage to secure victory for me. And if you are considering hiring him as an attorney, you could definitely do far worse. And considering the amount of potentially displayed when I met him 12 years ago I'm sure he's done nothing but improved tremendously since then. You would do yourself a disservice by not at least contacting him about a consultation.

My husband was facing 7+ years in prison, Alex worked tremendously hard on his case. Alex advised us on resources to use like a phycological evaluation, classes, chemical dependency evaluations, etc. This was a very scary situation that we were in and with Alex's hard work and determination my husband went from 7+ years in prison to a plea deal with up to 7 years of probation. I cannot thank Alex enough for everything that he did for us. If you are looking for help and guidance you cannot go to a better person than Alex.

I had a complicated case that dealt with an OFP given the fact that I live outside of the U.S.A. Mr. De Marco handily prepared for the case on short notice (less than 15 days), and put my mind at ease with references to actual Minnesota state statues. During the case he handled himself professionally, and got a dismissal of the case because in no small part to his references to Minnesota statues, and previous similar cases. I recommend this lawyer, if you want a fair shake at winning.

He came to see me while I was in jail had a consult and I hired him. I was instructed not to talk about what really happened and not under any circumstances talk to the jail staff or inmates or my visitors about my case. He delivered as promised and I'm a free man enjoying my family and my freedom because of the wonderful services he has provided me. I wouldn't recommend anyone else as far as a legal defense attorney goes. Alex is a man of his word and is very good at what he does. If you need help he is the man to call

I reached out to Mr. De Marco for a consultation with a domestic assault charge. Mr. De Marco emailed me back almost immediately and set up a consultation phone call. After explaining my situation to him(and going well past the one hour time frame we had agreed on for our consultation) Mr. De Marco provided me with a wealth of information. Sadly, Mr. De Marco was unable to represent me but made sure I had all the tools and knowledge available to me going forward. Thanks to the assistance provided by Mr. De Marco I received a very favorable outcome in my case, and I could not have been happier with the results, and I highly recommend Mr. De Marco.

Alex Demarco was recommended to me by a friend that attended the same university as he. After our initial phone call and subsequent meeting,  I felt confident that he was the right attorney for me. Receiving the contract with the wrong client name and agreement terms, should have been my first clue that although Alex says (and quite possibly believes) all the right things, his attention to detail and ability to deliver falls short. Over the course of 7 months, my experience with Alex was wrought with one excuse after another. Here are just a few...("My sister-in-law is in the hospital." "You've caught me at a pretty horrible part if life at the moment." "Sorry, I was so sleep-deprived from jury trial." "Understand i have a murder case that's absolutely occupying my time here.") Initially,  I was sympathetic to his plight.  But eventually,  I came to the point where I just wanted my lawyer to represent ME (his client, who incidentally paid in full upfront). That, and his adventurous Facebook posts didn't seem to jive with the excuses he was giving me. In the end, it took Alex 7 months to obtain a simple video from campus pd, and that took me riding him the entire time. Although incomplete evidence was eventually supplied to him, Alex neither questioned/followed up it, nor did  he return any of my attempts to contact him further. I regret 100% my decision to hire him. Given my personal experience,  I'd recommend steering clear.

I was having difficulty with an attorney that was working on my case. I decided to look for new representation. That's when I found Alex. After meeting him I knew he was the right attorney for me. He is knowledgable, well prepared and a good communicator. But the best attribute about Alex is that he really cares. I highly recommend Alex and will refer him to all my friends.

Alexander De Marco is most likely one of the best informative and factual lawyers I have ever spoken with. He understood my case and the situation I was in. I had been at a small gathering and my roommate was getting belligerently intoxicated, and as I realized this he came at me and head butted me about three times. I had not retaliated because I don't like fighting, but unfortunately this drunk friend of mine was not himself and he was not giving up. We then later got kicked out of the house because my other friend puked all over their couch. So I drove my friends car back home and we were driving and my belligerent roommate was threating me for about 10 min until finally he started to choke me while I was driving. So now he was endangering mine and my friends life, so I had to do something. I pulled over and he got out and so did I, it was a brawl. He kept repeatedly trying to drive off with my friends car and I would not let him, so I ripped him out and left him there on the road and drove off. Later the next day he came home not knowing anything relevant to that night. He also was put in a detox facility that night, after I left him on the road. A few days after that I received a 5th degree domestic assault in the mail and it said I needed to appear in court. So I needed a little bit of help with this. The case was dismissed, we just had to hurry up and wait. The thing I really didn't get out of it was how could a police officer take a man's word when he has a BAC of .180. So from the stats he was extremely drunk. Thanks again De Marco you're the man.

Mr. De Marco is one of the best attorneys I have ever met. He was knowledgeable, caring, compassionate, and understanding with my case. He has gone above and beyond for me. He was personally vested in representing me and explained what was going on and what he was doing for me every step of the way. I plan on hiring Alex again and would reccommend him to anyone looking for an honest attorney, whom is willing to fight for you.

I was charged with a 4th degree DUI. I called Alex the next day via a referral from a friend. Alex was extremely helpful and accommodating. I was able to meet with him the next day in the evening, so I didn't even have to take off of work. He immediately put me at ease, first acknowledging my emotional state and then, after hearing my accounts of the evening, telling me my options and potential outcomes. I left with a good understanding of what to expect during the legal process. After our initial meeting, Alex went out of his way to help me with the many tasks associated with a DUI, including faxing materials to DVS while I was on a business trip so I could install the ignition interlock after I got back home. He provided recommendations on what to do prior to court to help my case. This being my first DUI, I had many questions along the way and Alex went out of his way to be available for me to answer those questions. Alex did a thorough job reviewing my case materials and provided me with what I believe to be sound legal advice. When my arraignment came, he came to court with me and spoke to the prosecutor, resulting in what I believe to be the best possible outcome for my case. I can't thank Alex enough for his availability, knowledge, and caring attitude. It was nice not to feel alone in the legal process during a very difficult time in my life.

Alex did a wonderful job. My case was dropped to a lesser charge because of his hard work and his advisement's. He conducts himself as both a professional and as one who is concerned with making sure he can do all he can to represent you well. He also helped guide me through the court case processes and gave me input as often as he received it from others. His diligence and ethical behavior yielded me the opportunity to do a bit more work to prove that I am not a chronic alcohol abuser. Because of this work, he was able to get a deal with the prosecuting attorney and my charge was lessened. Huge thanks to Alex!
