I am a well rounded honest attorney who has as you note by my past, has been on both sides of many issues. I take every client seriously, return all phone calls and emails, and I personally attend to every client who hires me. Rarely, do I ever send another atttorney to fill in for me, nor do I had off cases after I get a fee.
It is unfortunate that I did get suspended, however, as in my expalation, I take full resposniblity. My peers respect me, the Judges respect me and I have a great legal repuration in our entire community.
I would ask that you meet me personally before you make any decisions. Many of my clients have seen me in Court then followed me to ask of my card. I also was recently referred a new divorce matter my the husband of a recent divorce matter in which I represented his wife. He actually called me to ask if I was accepting new clients. That is a compliment. My clients husband recommended me over his own attorney.

Excellent Lawyer.
I hired Eric Biretta to represent me in a child custody case. My children's father is a violent alcoholic and drug addict. I came to Mr. Biretta because I was afraid for my children's safety. Eric represented me to the best of his ability. He gave me excellent legal advice that I still use to this da...

Knowledgeable & Experienced
I cannot recommend Eric highly enough. He is a knowledgeable, experienced defense lawyer. We met him at an extremely low point in our lives and he supported our family thru a very difficult time. Our case went to trial and we received a not guilty verdict. It was an exhausting, emotional two year pro...

Criminal Defense
I hired Eric for my son who was in very serious trouble. I must tell you as a parent, when no one else will talk to you about your loved one Eric will. His advice and performance in the court room is second to none. As a professional myself reviews are what people look at. Experience is earned and w...

The best Attorney in Michigan.
Several years ago I was charged with possession of marijuana with intent to distribute (one ounce) and running a drug house. I had been hosting one too many saturday night parties at my house until it caught up to me. Needless to say, I was extremely nervous about it, looking at close to a decade in...
"I have worked with Eric for over 20 years and find him not only to be a good person, but an excellent lawyer who truly cares about his clients."
"I endorse this lawyer. His attention to detail sets him apart as well as his ability to navigate complex issues with ease. Highly recommend."
"I endorse this lawyer. For years, at least ten, I have referred cases which I do not specialize in to Mr. Biretta. He has represented his clients dlligently, effectively and successfully. He continues as co-counsel on many cases with me and is an accomplished trial lawyer. I have rarely met another lawyer that is as aggressive and zealous when representing his clients. I would and still refer many criminal and divorce cases to Mr. Biretta for representation."

This lawyer was disciplined by a state licensing authority in 1998.
Suspension issued in MI, 1998
updated on 06/21/2012Suspension means an attorney lost his or her license to practice law for a period of time. The attorney typically returns to practicing law when the suspension expires.
“Both of these resulted from a time which I closed my practice of law and left the State of Michigan. My ex was getting my mail, and unfortunatley as we were not on good terms, she did not inform me of two traffic matters and a divorce matter that had slipped through the cracks, and I failed to appear. This was from 1996 and since that time, I have a flawless record as can be attested to by my client reviews. I admit that I did not appear on those matters but it is no reflection on my ability.”
Reprimand issued in MI, 1996
updated on 11/11/2010Reprimand means an attorney did something wrong but may still practice law. The State gives the lawyer a public reprimand in hopes that he or she will not repeat the behavior. Details of the infraction are made part of the public record.
“This was a reprimand for posting a bond for my 17 year old nephew whose parents would not bond him out of the county jail for fighting with his 15 year old brother. Ridiculous.”
