Winning criminal cases is my passion!! I enjoy working for the "underdog" who has all of the legal odds stacked against him or her in their criminal case. A criminal case is like a puzzle already put together by the Government and Prosecution. My goal is to break the puzzle apart, piece by piece, prove my clients innocence and work towards winning their case. I thoroughly enjoy what I do and I am especially pleased when my client is able to walk out of the courtroom to go home back to their families instead of jail. Although most people will never need the services of a Criminal Defense Attorney, often times bad things happen to good people, and when they do, I work hard to restore that persons good name and reputation. This profession may not be for everyone, but I would not trade it for the world!

He was very confident, straight forward, and extremely professional from start to finish. He will be my attorney for sure if needed. I highly recommend his services.

Extremely Glad I Found Attorney Bessant!!!!
I was charged with a very serious felony that would have not only landed me in prison for sure, but would have ended with me getting fired from my job. I found Mr. Bessant online and immediately after speaking with him he eased my fears and gained my trust. In short, my case was not only dismissed, but he fought tooth and nail with the prosecutors in court which helped to get these charges dropped. Im glad I found him and his fees were affordable. Thanks again Attorney and I will be certain to refer you to all my family and friends!!!

PHENOMENAL CRIMINAL ATTORNEY!!!!!
I was terrified about the charges (alcohol) I was facing and after my initial conversation with Mr. Bessant my mind was immediatley put at ease. Mr. Bessant met with the prosecutor and negiotiated to have 1 of the charges dismissed and the remaiming 2 to misdemeanours that wouldn't effect my record. Mr. Bessant is super smart, very professional and I highly recommend all to retain his legal services when facing criminal charges.

Attorney Kevin Bessant is the best criminal attorney in Michigan
I'm here to thank you attorney Kevin Bessant. I got a solicitation charge in Detroit few months ago. The type of this violation may sentence me up to 90 days of imprisonment and impose a $500 fine. One of the best decision I made was called Mr Bessant. He met me personally and gave me free consultation and explained to me step by step. He was very professional and was communicating frequently with the status of my case. With his hard work and dedication for few months, my charges dropped down to few hrs community work and one year probation. If anyone need attorney help , don't hesitate call attorney Kevin Bessant . I would recommend him to everyone that I know.

The Tenacity To Win
I contacted Kevin Bessant for help in regards to having a felony conviction set aside. After discovering there was an arrest record still showing up on my record for another incident that was dismissed, Mr. Bessant suggested having that arrest record destroyed along with having the felony conviction set aside. He assured me that it was very likely both would be possible and they were. He showed a deep understanding of the provisions that have recently changed and argued my case at the hearings and won. Mr. Bessant created strong arguments and produced the facts for the Judges who agreed and passed the motions. Now, I have a second chance to begin a career without being prejudiced for mistakes made almost ten years ago all in part to his professionalism and capability in the courtroom. He was persuasive, non-argumentative, and helped to create legal precedent for cases in the future. Also, Mr. Bessant's fees are very reasonable and he was up front from the beginning about the cost. He avoids using the ambiguity that many lawyers use to make as much money as possible and achieved the results he could almost guarantee from the beginning. If you are considering having a conviction set aside you should check out his informative website and choose him to protect you from being misrepresented. I am so thankful I retained his services. Thank you so much Mr. Bessant for your hard work and honesty. You have made a difference for so many of us.

Excellent Choice for an Attorney!
We contacted Kevin Bessant to help close out an old outstanding probation case. We did not live in Michigan anymore and didn't know an attorney there. After searching online, we came across Kevin's website and gave him a call. He responded to our call immediately and consulted with us prior to us hiring him. He was extremely knowledgable and promptly returned calls and emails, and reassured us every step of the way through our case, which was resolved quickly. We made an excellent choice in hiring Kevin and would highly recommend him!

Best possible choice for criminal defense.
In what could have been an open and shut case against me by the prosecution Kevin Bessant was the best decision i made. I was facing felony drug and misdemeanor drug possession charges. Kevin was able to convince the prosecutor to drop the felony charge if i plead guilty to the misdemeanor charge. He was also successful in getting the judge to sentence me immediately so the process was not dragged out, and cost me more time missed from work. He was able to convince the judge for a light and fair sentence of 12 months probation, with a possibility of having it dropped to six months. Kevin worked with me on making payments and took my case with paying him only a fraction of his retainer fee upfront. He returned my phone calls almost immediately even before i had him retained. He talked me through each step and kept me informed through the entire process. He made me feel and my family that the best case scenario would be the result and he proved that to be true. If you need a criminal defense lawyer, i wouldn't look any further than Kevin Bessant. Thank you Kevin Bessant!

Exceptional Attorney
Couldn't of asked or a better attorney. He worked on a felony fraud case for my fiance. He worked with the prosecutor and got the sentence drastically dropped down and one charge completely dismissed. My fiance got a 90 day program when he was facing years. He was extremely knowledgeable and kept me in the loop the whole time. He returned calls and texts immediately. He was confident about what he did and most importantly held my confidence through the whole process. His rates are extremely reasonable for the work that he does. I would highly recommend him to anyone needing legal help.
