Brilliant

I can go on and on about Kenneth Vernier. Just when I thought my life was over and I was going to do life in prison, the pandemic started. My court-appointed lawyer dropped my case for medical reasons and I was appointed to Ken. I wasn't offered any plea agreements up until I was finally dressed for ...trial. The deal wasn't good enough. They even offered time served. We went and had a 3-day trial. The verdict came back so fast, I thought I was for sure going to prison. That wasn't going to be an option with Ken. He is very strategic and the jury was convinced. I was facing felony charges. All charges were dropped and I was given a misdemeanor with time served. I trusted Ken with my life. That was just the beginning. I was then transferred back to another jail where I was facing more life charges. Ken reached out and we reached an agreement. He came in to represent me. It was overall a 4-year fight he endured to make sure I could come back home. This man not only cares about his clients but he makes it personal and he fights for you. He argues he objects, he will set things up in your favor to the best of his ability. I couldn't let Ken off the hook that easy though. Once I was home after being incarcerated for 4 years. I violated my probation with a d.u.i in a county where for the first time Ken said, "I don't know if we can dodge this one. You might have to do some jail time." When my sentencing day came, Ken did it again. He represented me wholeheartedly with pure honesty and made sure to state things very clearly. It was then that I knew, I could always count on Kenneth Vernier. Brilliant Lawyer and an even better person. I highly recommend him as an attorney.

The Shark you NEED!! 5 stars

If you’re in a difficult situation or you’re deciding on attorneys, choose Ken. He will help you through the process. This man right here helped me twice. Once with helping to keep my daughter during a fraud probation violation. Then he helped me go back into time to wash an R/O off my record. Look,... this man will do anything, research everything and give you his all. Don’t look any further, he’s changed my life. This review is long overdue. I’ve moved and never met an attorney like this one! Ken, thank you for always being there for me when I needed help. 5 star attorney!

Excellent Work

Mr. Vernier did an excellent job with my case. I was facing OWI 2nd offense and was getting nowhere with my previous attorney. Turned my case to Mr. Vernier and explained my situation. For my case the final result was dismissal of all charges. I was very pleased with Vernier’s work. I will definitely... call him again if ever needed. Thanks again. Ken

A well informed criminal law attorney

Mr. Vernier was suggested to me by another attorney I contacted to handle a complex issue regarding a previous criminal conviction. Kenneth was honest and thorough; providing an overview of the challenges, suggesting a plan, then guiding me step-by-step through the complex legal process. Ken explai...ned the pros and cons of pursuing different strategies at every step, allowing me to make fully informed decisions, then filed all of the motions and forms required by state law. Although resolution took significantly longer than originally anticipated, Ken kept me informed of progress and setbacks in a timely manner via regular meetings, phone calls, and text messages. My complex case that other lawyers wouldn't take was successfully resolved thanks to Mr. Vernier's commitment and attention to legal details. I'm very happy with the outcome. His hard work is allowing me to move forward with my life. I would suggest Kenneth Vernier to anyone needing a criminal law attorney in the Oakland or Macomb County area.

A professional who cares

With our family in an unfortunate situation, I hired Kenneth Vernier based on his extensive experience and his caring nature, taking on individuals, as a court appointed attorney, who have nothing and no where to turn. Throughout, he was always available to address questions and concerns. His exper...tise led us through the system to achieve the path best suited for our situation. I believe that he would do the same for you.
