I spend most of my day in court, which means I have the experience and confidence you require when it is time for you to have your day in court.
My experience as a CRIMINAL DEFENSE ATTORNEY is supported by my work in the District and Circuit courts throughout Michigan and other states as well.
I am equally comfortable presenting your case to the judge at a bench trial or to your peers at a jury trial.
100% of my practice is devoted to criminal defense.
Criminal Defense is all I do. You need an experienced and aggressive attorney to help you fight for your rights. Call me now!

Replied last March 23, 2016No attorney can ever promise to keep a person out of Jail. Your trust and cooperation helped. These things are not easy and very confusing. I am glad I could make the process a bit easier. Take care.

Helpful and Kind!
I was charged with a misdemeanor drug offense while visiting Michigan and called several lawyers in the area.
