Great Attorney

One of the best decisions I've made to this date was to hire attorney Kevin Bessant. When I first contacted Mr. Bessant on the phone and explained my situation he was very thorough and forthright. After being on the phone for nearly 45 seconds explaining my case he then took about ten minutes to des...cribe some of the things that could occur if I went into court without legal representation. It was not a scare tactic nor a tactic used to pump out his chest and say hire me. He wanted me to have all of the information that I needed before hiring an attorney or deciding to choose him. I spoke with other attorney's who made my situation sound like doom and gloom and if I hired them I would have the best representation. I never felt comfortable with the others I spoke with so I decided to go with Kevin. Best decision I could have ever made. Kevin was there the entire process. When I called, emailed or text he would get back with me in a timely fashion and explain what was going on with my case. When it was time to go to court Mr. Bessant was able to work with the local prosecutor and get my case reduced to where it wouldn't go on my record and I didn't have to go to jail. During the process, Kevin was always very professional, knowledgeable and honest about what I was facing. He truly did a great job the entire way and now and I can go ahead and concentrate on my life and not worry about the legal cloud that was over my head. In closing I would recommend Kevin Bessant to anyone looking for a great defense attorney.

Thank you Attorney Bessant-

I am a native Detroiter who moved out of state a few years ago and left behind a legal matter that turned into a warrant for my arrest. I thought that it would be in my best interest to hire an attorney in Michigan to handle my case. After retaining (2) different lawyers within (1) year of absolutely... (0) results, I decided to sever my agreement with the second attorney and start all over again. After many calls and consultations, I found Kevin Bessant's website and decided to contact him. From our initial conversation, I felt confident that he was quite knowledgeable of my type of case (unemployment benefits fraud) and knew exactly what steps to take to help me get it resolved. After retaining Attorney Bessant, he quickly got me a court date and arranged to have all of the court matters, such as the arraignment, pre-trial and sentencing to occur on the same day- which saved me the time and expense of traveling back to Detroit multiple times. Upon appearing in court and meeting him, I observed that he is very well-respected and “connected” in the courtroom. My case was satisfactorily resolved within 8 days of our initial conversation!!! I am so grateful to Mr. Bessant for being there for me at a time when I was literally in tears and in fear of entrusting another lawyer. His services are top-notch and he is a true professional and pleasure to work with. I sincerely and whole-heartedly give my highest recommendation of Attorney Bessant's firm and legal services. He is simply the best!!

Expungement Case

After waiting 5 years to expunge my record I found myself in search of a educated attorney to handle my case. I can honestly say I could have not found a better attorney. Mr. Bessant was not only professional and well knowledgable on the expungment process but was honest and displayed exceptional com...munication skills. In all I am very greatful to Mr. Bessant for giving me a fresh start with no hassles or delays. The process was straight forward and did not take long at all. He is your attorney and your in good hands.

Best Crimininal Defense Lawyer in Michigan!!!!

When I found myself facing charges I was quite lost. Took to the internet to find attorneys as I knew none. Spoke with about half a dozen lawyers and had a couple appointments set up before I reached Attorney Kevin Bessant. First I received his voicemail and left a message, doubting I'd hear a resp...onse. I don't think a full 10 minutes passed before he called me back. He listened as I explained my predicament and when I was done he started firing questions. He was immediately interested and invested. I immediately knew I was in good hands, I honestly felt better. So much so that right after we hung up i cancelled all the other appointments and was in his office the next day! He knew what to ask, knew what the processes and laws were, knew the prosecutor and judge and their habits pertaining to cases. It was clear this was not his first rodeo and that he was passionate about his craft. He made sure he had all the information and understood the case correctly, and did not bring up payments until the end of our meeting. Upon leaving his office I felt like I had made the best decision and that I was in the best hands!! He didn't disappoint or make false promises. Everything went as he said it would when both him and I did out parts (him as my attorney and I as a defendant). I was facing Retail Fraud to a 3rd degree. He got my case Dismissed on pre-trial, and provided me with valuable information on how to get my fingerprint and arrest card destroyed (other attorneys charge for this) so that my record is cleared. This man is very good at what he does and you feel a certain sense of relief every time you speak with him knowing that "He Got This"! One of the best decisions I have made in my life was hiring him. If you have a criminal case contact Kevin Bessant, If he tells you he can help you. HE CAN and WILL if you let him!
