About Stacey

Learn Stacey’s areas of practice.

I previously prosecuted DUI and general criminal cases for the City of Ann Arbor.  I have also worked for judges in criminal matters.  I have handled dozens and dozens of jury and non-jury trials since 1987.  I have a strong understanding of how prosecutors, judges and defense attorneys think and make decisions about cases.

 

My practice focuses on DUI defense although I will also handle general criminal matters.  I handle cases primarily in Washtenaw County but I will go to other counties for the right case and client.  i help my clients feel less stressed as I work with them to resolve their legal and collateral issues in the best way possible.  I listen carefully and let my clients tell their story.  I prefer DUI cases because I am passionate about helping and protecting the rights of clients who may have alcohol or substance abuse issues.

 

I am an assertive and thorough advocate for my clients.  At the forefront of my mind is finding and executing solutions that are in their best interests.  I spend as much time with my clients as necessary to help them.  I help them find other resources and experts where needed.

Highly Recommended, Professional, and Quick
Stacey is everything a client could want. She adapts to what you need, when you can meet, and what your given situation is. I have used her twice for two completely separate matters. She was professional, a rapid, accessible communicator, competitively priced, and very friendly. Even post case closing, Stacey has always been available for consultation and guidance. What a wonderful experience working with her.

One of my favorite attorneys
I have worked with hundreds of attorneys, and Stacey is one of my favorite. She responds to all of my requests typically within hours and not days. Stacey is a great listener, which directly leads to her ability to ask the right question at the right time to give the most accurate advice. She has the experience to be highly effective, and is confident in her ability without being arrogant or demeaning towards others. Highly recommend.

Woman going through divorce as Defendant
Stacey was recommended to me by a friend based on reputation alone. The friend worked at a law firm in Ann Arbor years ago. Stacey was personable and professional on the phone and I was confident after our initial meeting that she would be the right person to represent my interests in my divorce. Stacey is personable and professional - she made me feel instantly comfortable and confident that I would be well taken care-of. I appreciate how she handles things with the appropriate grace and aplomb that circumstances dictate - but is also appropriately assertive. In my situation she did not have to assert my interest to any great degree, but I am confident it would not have been an issue if it were necessary. While I do not plan on going through another divorce - if I need any other legal services in the future, I will not hesitate to contact Stacey.
