OWI Defense

Neil did an excellent job of defending me in an OWI case that eventually led to dismissal. In extracting, from me, all the details that led to my initial arrest, analysis of the discovery data and superb cross-examination of witnesses he was able to build a solid argument that neutralized the pros...ecution and the case was dropped. I am very grateful for his skills.

10 Years - Only Improved With Time

I first retained Neil on a case about 10 years ago. He proved to be exceptionally skillful counsel. Fast forward to 2015, and I found myself facing wage garnishment for past due criminal restitution. Neil not only helped arrange a settlement for less than 10% of the amount due, he also was able to... successfully get my bond forfeiture dismissed. Thank you for saving me over $25k!

The Best of the Best!

Neil has been such a blessing! Although I've known him on a professional level for over 15 years, I never thought that I would have the need to hire him! My 20 year old son got into some pretty serious trouble while visiting me up north for the 4th of July weekend. To make matters even worse, he was ...already in violation of his probation in the Rochester District Court resulting in a warrant and license suspension on a 1st Offense MIP charge. Although I know many Attorneys, I didn't know who to trust to handle a felony case and the District Court case that I was sure would result in my son serving jail time. Neil came highly recommended by another Attorney friend of mine and I immediately contacted him. He was very understanding and made me feel confident that he could handle both cases without my son going to jail. Between him and Colin and their wonderful office staff, I felt a sense of relief that we were in good hands. I see so many Attorneys settle cases instead of fight for their clients. Not Neil! He sincerely wants to right the wrong and that is so refreshing! Neil and Colin worked hard to get the Felony and one of the misdemeanor charges in the case up north dismissed in exchange for a guilty plea to two minor charges both of which were taken under the HYTA program, meaning, as long as my son successfully completes 9 months of probation, those charges will not go on his permanent record. No Jail time, NONE!! What a huge relief! Then came time to face the Judge in Rochester and he did not back down one bit! She is one of the toughest Judges in Oakland County but not as tough as Neil! He did his research and knows the law. Instead of my worst fears coming true, which was jail time and extended probation, the Judge revoked and discharged him from probation! It was finally over! Well almost! She decided to give him 30 WWAM days which equals 240 hours of community service. HA! Neil said NO WAY! So we are Appealing to the Circuit Court! Instead of feeling defeated Neil has given me a new sense of confidence. What is even better, my son found respect in the legal system, not through the courts but through his Attorney. He has finally taken a better path, one of which I've been praying for for a long time and I know that Neil and Colin both played a huge role in that. I will be forever grateful!

CLASS ACT ATTORNEY!

I am a 30 year old male who has been running a business for the past 10 years. The last year I feel like I've been harassed by undercover police who set me up into purchasing some product and I felt I did my du diligence and bought correctly. Unfortunitly I was WRONG! Roughly 3 months ago my business... and home were raided and I was arrested! I was threatened by police that they were forfeiting all of my assets and my family's assets due to criminal activity!! I was told by police and FBI that they would drop charges to a minimal if I chose to "cooperate" with them. I am not the police and that's not my job. To make a long story short I went through 3 highly recomeneded attorneys and the reason for this was I wasn't willing to cooperate with police and every attorney I hired RECOMMENDED I COOPERATE! One attorney even had the nerves to tell me if I don't help them there going to ruin my life : ( . From the Grace of God I was fortunate to hire the BEST..NEIL ROCKIND! From the day I spoke to Neil and Collin I felt like a new man. I started to gain my confidence back! Neil Rockind is a class act lawyer who means business! He told me he would fight these allegations and I will be right with him while we go to war with the prosecution. Neil is the most caring lawyer out there. I had an issue where I was arrested during this whole mess and he personally drove to the police station to see me! ( I LOVE THIS MAN!) Neil and his whole team are the most reasonable people out there and they CARE about there clients! I was facing a 20 year Rico charge and Neil was able to settle this basically outside of the courtroom with a minor probation. I was so ready to see Neil in action but he's such a strong attorney that I didn't even have to take it that far! If you are in any sort of trouble with the law or accused of anything I recommend to get in touch with ROCKIND LAW! YOU GUYS ARE THE BEST!
