He graduated with honors from The John Marshall Law School in Chicago and began his career as an attorney. He worked as a civil litigator for large financial institutions where he traveled all across the state of Minnesota representing his client’s interests in district court. He has made dozens of trial appearances and worked an extensive motion practice that has allowed him to familiarize himself with nearly every county in Minnesota..

The criminal justice system forces one individual to defend themself against the entire might of the State of Minnesota. I want you to know that you do not need to stand alone. My name is Baxter Zaiger and I am a criminal defense attorney licensed in the State of Minnesota. I graduated cum laude from Mitchell Hamline School of Law in December of 2018. While in law school, I was an editor for the Mitchell Hamline Law Review, law clerk at a criminal defense firm, and teacher to first year law students. My passion for criminal defense goes beyond representing people through the justice system, I believe in educating my clients so that they know what to expect when it comes to court proceedings as well as engaging with law enforcement.. Before attending law school, I gradutated from the University of Minnesota where I studied political science as well as economics. I was also the president of the Economic Student Organization where we focused on pairing students with Fortune 500 Internships. I also had the great opportunity of creating a scholarship for economic students who showed the most "GRIT.". Outside of the law I enjoying going on walks with my wife and dog, fishing, and watching movies. I am also an avid college wrestling fan.

Take a look at the caption of your summons or complaint. It reads, “State of Minnesota v. [insert your name here].” As you see, the American criminal justice system is adversarial in nature—the government versus you. This is inherently unfair. The government possesses and uses a variety of resources in furtherance of proving you guilty of a crime. These resources include prosecutors, investigators, peace officers, and taxpayer money. This is unfair, as you don’t have access to the same resources. I want to help level the playing field by fighting aggressively and ethically to preserve your rights. When the government charges you with a crime, it accuses you of breaking a law. My job is twofold: 1) to ensure the government follows its own laws when it tries to meet its burden to prove you guilty; and 2) to assert every possible defense afforded to you by law. The system works best when the defense attorney works zealously to ensure the courts and prosecutors play by the rules.. As a criminal defense attorney, I defend my clients zealously and effectively. I use my understanding of the legal landscape to assert my clients’ constitutional rights both inside and outside the courtroom. My experience with the criminal justice system began with the 10th Judicial District Public Defender’s Office where I represented over 1,000 clients. I continued my career as a criminal defense attorney by working privately at a mid-sized firm in Anoka. I formed Repka Law, LLC in Saint Paul with the vision of using my legal knowledge, skills, and experience without the overhead costs of mid- to large-sized firms. This means you get big firm results for solo practitioner prices. Don’t take a chance with your defense. Hire the right defense attorney who understands the system and isn’t afraid to fight for your rights.

For almost three decades, I witnessed how an individual would care for another by putting his or her own needs last. This culture has formed my values and beliefs and significantly added to who I am today. At a young age, I learned how to be supportive and giving in a great sense of compassion. Thinking about the other has helped me in building and maintaining a high sense of integrity and advocating for justice and respecting others.

The North Star Criminal Defense team is stacking trial win after trial win, and on complicated, challenging cases, including a nine-count attempted murder case where the self-defense theory prevailed..
