Best Felony Criminal Attorney In Michigan

Attorney Bessant is incredible. He is diligent and doesn’t back down. Through my case he has been communicative, knowledge, patient, understanding, and fierce. Answers day or night. We are almost to the end and without Kevin I’m not sure id be in as good of a position as I am. Highly recommend. He is... simply the best when it comes to representation for criminal matters. Would never recommend anyone else! Always always will recommend Kevin to anyone having the unfortunateness of dealing with criminal matters in Michigan!

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.

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!
