Dani helped me out in a tight spot on a very short time schedule. I highly recommend her. She was great at addressing all my concerns and made me feel much better about my case. I received the outcome I was hoping for thanks to her knowledge and expertise.

Cant speak highly enough of dealing with Brandt Kettwick Defense team. Danielle Peden did an outstanding job of guiding me through the legal defense process and securing an outcome that we were very satisfied with.

I can't sing Danielle's praises high enough. She came down to visit me on my first terrified night in Jail. She passed no judgement whatsoever. She has an extremely good grasp on the criminal justice system. She calmed me down, talked me through the process and let me know everything would be okay. She spent the next month working tirelessly on my behalf to position me in the best way possible for my sentencing, and we received the best case scenario outcome. This was the lowest point of my life, and Danielle helped ensure it would not ruin it. She is a huge reason why I am working so hard to be the best version of myself, because I don't think I deserved someone as amazing as her, and I am forever grateful for the work and support she provided to me. -Sam

Dani is a great lawyer for many different reasons of hire. I was charged with child endangerment for accidentally leaving my firearm in a public place. She gave accurate predictions before I even hired her and was very knowledgeable and helpful along the way. Dani was able to get me a stay of adjudication, which was the best case scenario for the circumstances.

I was 100 % satisfied with the work criminal defense Attorney Danielle Peden from Brandt Criminal Defense did for me. I was falsely charged with 5th degree misdemeanor assault in Anoka County on 10/17/2020. Dani worked diligently on my case. She and her assistant collected statements from eleven (11) witnesses. After that, Dani convince the Prosecutor to dismissed my case. My case was dismissed on 5/3/2021 in Anoka County court. I will be willing to recommend Dani to anyone in the future. She is a great Attorney.
