Saved My Career

After a failure of a night on New Year's Eve, I was in trouble. George was the first lawyer I had faith in. Other lawyers said I was going to have to complete probation and have a criminal record. They only spoke of plea deals which I would not want to take. I couldn't let this happen for my care...er. When I read the reviews and saw how Lewis & Dickstein could get cases dismissed, I decided it would be worth every penny I had to give it a shot. Long story short, George strategically had me take action before my court date and fought for me to ensure the best possible deal. Conclusion: Case dismissed! Now I can leave this mistake in the past and continue on with my life thanks to George. Highly Recommend.

Simply the BEST!!

I cannot express how grateful I am to have found attorney George MacAvoy Brown. Facing a probation violation, I was looking at possible jail time, among other repercussions, and I was terrified. After my first meeting with George, I felt as though a huge weight had been lifted off my shoulders. He is... extremely knowledgeable in the field, intelligent, down to earth, and truly cares about his clients. On the day of my arraignment, I walked out of court with only a warning not to violate probation again. The outcome could not have turned out better. I would HIGHLY recommend him to anyone facing a difficult legal situation!!! Thank you George!

Restored full driving privileges

Many years ago my license was restricted which was supposed to be for one year but ended up being indefinitely. I was a young, new mom and at the time did not have the resources to hire an attorney to correct the court error. After many years it was time to get this straightened out so I began the ...search for an attorney in Oakland county. George's firm had outstanding reviews and after emailing them my info, I received a call back and got the pleasure to talk to George. My case was unique because it was so old but George was straight forward from the get go and explained the many steps it would take to restore my license. He was up front with the fee and began to work on my case immediately. During the process he answered every email and phone call. All documents to petition the court were sent via email for me to see. I am almost 500 miles away from Oakland county and he handled everything without me even having to be there! That was impressive!! He is very professional and I highly recommend him!

Expungement

I recently hired Attorney George MacAvoy Brown to expunge an old misdemeanor of a domestic violence that was plead down but lost my gun rights. As a result unbeknownst to me at the time. Years later I tried to purchase a firearm and was denied. I then hired Attorney Brown and he walked me right throu...gh all the steps to finally clear my name. He was very friendly and talked to me like a person and not a criminal. Any questions I had along the way he answered very fast and was always open to talk if I needed to along the way. I cannot say enough great things about my experience with him. We just had our day in court and we won! If I was to do it all over again I’d hired him in a second. He’s not afraid to win. If I need need an Attorney again in my life he will be my first phone call. Thanks for everything was a pleasure going through this with you Attorney Brown.
