Top Lawyer in Michigan

I retained Attorney George Brown after being charged with assault GBH/strangulation and domestic violence in Livingston County. At the time I had never been charged with a crime before so being charged with a 10 year felony was life shattering. I was expecting the case to go to trial so I did some re...search on exceptional "trial attorneys" in Michigan, which led me to Lewis & Dickstein / Notafraidtowin. I scheduled a consultation and met with George. I briefly explained the case and circumstances to him and immediately felt that George would do everything in his power to get me the best outcome possible. George answered all of the questions he could at the time and even answered questions from my family. After retaining George, he went straight to work by examining all of the case details and submitting FOIA requests on the alleged "victim". George also scheduled a polygraph, coordinated with private investigators and hired a SANE nurse to testify at trial. Even while juggling all of those tasks, George was STILL able to answer every one of my phone calls. George was able to postpone trial while building up a solid defense with the private investigators and SANE nurse. It turned out that one of the FOIA requests George submitted showed the alleged "victim" made similar claims 2 months after my arrest which were found to be false . George presented this information to the prosecutor and pointed out all of the similarities between that case and mine. The strangulation and domestic charges were ultimately pled down to disturbing the peace. I was highly impressed with George's attention to detail throughout the process and how he was able to attack my case from multiple angles rather than charging straight into trial, even though that was what I initially wanted. I strongly recommend Attorney George Brown to anyone seeking a top lawyer in Michigan.

I recommend Attorney George Brown for criminal defense for Immigrants

My mother's case was represented by Attorney George Brown in the 52-3 District Rochester Hills Court, known as one of the toughest court in Michigan. This case had multiple challenges and could have potential immigration implications. He knew what had to be done to prevent any collateral consequence ...related to immigration and has excellent connections with other leading lawyers from other practice areas, including immigration. The prosecution office and courts hold George in high regard. He took the case all the way to the SUV (Special Victim Units) Director level and successfully negotiated a plea agreement of a lower charge that avoided any negative immigration consequences without going to a trial. Also, I commend him for effectively interacting with a client who does not speak English. George is, in my view, ethical and knowledgeable. I would recommend hiring Attorney George Brown, especially for immigrants.

Recommend !!

Mr.Brown is an outstanding attorney ! He has rich experience and clear thinking. He handled my very efficiently. He hit the key points with the simple, clear words and methods ! He always took the trouble to patiently explain questions that I didn’t understand, even if many of them were repetitive q...uestions. He successfully helped me reduce my crime to a misdemeanor！ I will definitely recommend him !

Best decision I could have made

I hired George to represent me as a victim's advocate in a domestic violence case. I was the 'alleged victim' in a situation that was grossly misrepresented from the start. He quickly identified issues that could cause self-incrimination if I were to testify. He did NOT let the prosecution bully me i...nto testifying without the protection of immunity. Immunity was granted because of his expertise and knowledge of the law. I was given the opportunity to testify without fear, set things right, and exonerate someone who was falsely accused of domestic violence. George was direct, honest, and didn't sugarcoat anything. He was always prompt in his communication and made sure I understood my rights and my options. In short, he gave me and my family our lives back. He even held my purse when I thought I couldn't bring it with me to the stand (turns out I could. Sorry George!) If you're looking for fair, aggressive representation and someone who truly makes you feel understood, look no further. He's absolutely not afraid to win.

This is the Right Attorney for anybody who wants justice.

Attorney George did exactly what he said he would do. I had an initial consultation where I laid out the facts of my case. After that, the attorney listened and explained what he could do. He told me his experience, but more importantly, he backed his words up with action. Attorney George requested... documents/details from me, contacted all the parties, and he began the legal process on time. I believe it is very important that your attorney is straightforward, prompt, and communicates with you. Attorney George kept his word, stayed in contact with the courts, and earned my payment through a detailed motion arguing my position to the court. Dealing with the justice system is very stressful for you and your family. This is not the time for the added pressure of worrying about whether your attorney is prepared. Pick Attorney George Brown if you are looking for an Attorney to fight for you and win.
