Hello Ciearl, I first want to apologize to you if I or anyone else in my office came across as being lackadaisical or non-interested in your situation when you called, as I strive to give every client and potential client the respect and attention they deserve when you contact my office concerning a legal matter. Furthermore, I find a failure to return phone calls as being completely unacceptable as we attempt to return all customer calls in a quick and timely fashion, usually within 24 hours or less. I will be sure to look into this to prevent this in the future. If by chance your 2006 Warrant is still active, and your situation remains unresolved, I invite you to contact our office again as soon as possible as I will look into your matter promptly, provided I have all of your personal information to research your warrant in an effort to reach a favorable outcome for you. You can also email us at kbessant@criminaldefensedetroitpllc.com. Thank you again for your input and hopefully we will have a future opportunity to serve you!

Retaining Mr Bessant is THE best thing I could have ever done!! GREAT at what he does!

I was so nervous for a long time about my case. I called Mr. Bessant and told him about my case. And he told me what he wanted to do with my case in court and told me his retainer fee (extremely affordable!) If you ask me he should charge more for what he does for people! I retained him and he told m...e what to expect in court and what he would do for me and on the day of my court date he did exactly what he said he would do. I had a VOP on a major charge, he got my probation closed and he got my hyta status retained. I am no longer facing prison time, and my criminal record is clean. Seriously Mr. Bessant is an amazing lawyer and I would recommend him to anyone facing the courts or legal troubles. He is very good at what he does and he does what he says he's going to do. I can live an anxiety free life now and I don't have to look over my shoulder everywhere I go anymore! If you read this Mr. Bessant , THANK YOU again for what you did for me and my future!!

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!
