He saved someone I consider my child

I hired Bill for a young woman I consider family — she was facing very serious charges, no prior record, and was terrified. Bill took control of the situation immediately. He knew exactly how to navigate the court, the prosecutors, the system. He got her a resolution that kept her record clean and ga...ve her a second chance at life. Today she's a manager, a business owner, and a mother. None of that happens without Bill Colovos. If you need a criminal defense attorney in the Downriver area who actually cares and knows what he's doing, hire him. I can't thank him enough

Highly recommend

Outstanding lawyer!!! Was facing 2 felonies and a misdemeanor based off accusations back in 2023 he sat in a jury trial for me. For ones that don't have success. He can only present what you give him. Do your own homework look for anything that he can present. He will use everything you collect. Afte...r jury I was found not guilty on all charges. Courts will try to leave things out of discover even knowingly that it is misconduct. City Hall keeps everything on file and is public. They will delete videos as in my case which would of been even better for my case, but luckily it wasn't needed to prove my innocence. If you have a poor case finding anything outside your discovery get copies and spend time going through it to find evidence. Do some research. Your attorney is your teammate at winning your case. For the negative post, Bill can only use what is presented to him. With that is going to be what is represented to the courtroom. An attorney is there to represent you, you are there to present. I was even given an opportunity to have the 2 felonies dropped and plea guilty of the misdemeanor. If you both agree there's a strong case of your innocence trust him and if he tells you that you don't have a chance after reviewing everything, then take that advice.

Compassionate and reliable with a stellar record of wins

Bill is a compassionate lawyer who truly cares about his clients. He treats them as if they are family. He has an excellent rapport with his colleagues which helps when he goes into negotiations with the prosecution. Bill helped me beat my case seemlessly! I will not hesitate to use him and recommend... him to anyone looking for an excellent criminal/traffic lawyer with an impeccable record and a true professional!

Great experience

I had the privilege of hiring Mr Colovos to represent me. He was professional and prompt to reply to me. He was always kind and had good interaction with the Judge.

Best attorney EVER! Like family!

Bill was the absolute best attorney I could have ever asked for! Not only did he listen to me, but he believed me that I was innocent of the crime I was being accused of. He was honest with me about all the steps or possible outcomes. By hiring Bill Colovos and following his expert legal advice, he g...ot my case dismissed!! That was 100% ALL Bill's doing! He KNOWS how to talk and work with judges and prosecutors. I have a 100% clean record before and now thanks to Bill, I continue to. I have never been that person "in trouble" with the law. I couldn't believe I found myself in a situation where I was in trouble due to accusations of another. This situation cause me SO much stress and anxiety, Bill will treat you like family, he answered my texts even when late at night when I was worried about my case. Whether you are guilty or innocent, I 100% KNOW Bill will be your best chance at the best outcome for your case.
