Best Attorney in All of Michigan

I feel very blessed to have found the perfect attorney in in Michigan let alone St. Clair County. But I feel even more blessed to have to have found Michael Kormorn. My charges were many, it all seemed so hopeless. I went to attorney after after attorney who kept telling me to “go ahead just plead gu...ilty”, I wasn’t guilty, so I refused to plead guilty (That’s why so many attorneys in St. Clair County have such great “win” rates) THEN a friend recommended Michael. Honestly, I thought it would be more of the same. But not him, he was honestly my knight in shining armor. During this time my family really got to know Michael. He came to our house to explain a very scary process to my very scared teenage children even. Michael always went out of his way to make us feel comfortable and explain every part of every step in the process to us. He was extremely flexible with our schedules. We also found Michael to be extremely hard working and it was always clear that he had our best interest in mind. Michael is fun, kind, and a true pleasure to be around. We always felt like we were his only clients because he was so responsive and proactive. When the court process finally started we got to meet Michael the bulldog. His tenacity and resolve to get the charges dropped was apparent. He was confident and reliable during the entire court process. And ALL of my charges were DROPPED INDEED! It was a beautiful sight watching him transform in a courtroom and go toe to toe with the sheriff’s department, prosecutors, and judges! I am happy and proud to call Michael my Attorney for life, but also an advisor and friend! Trust me, you will not go wrong having Michael Komorn defend you, because defend you he will!

The best defense attorney!! Period!!!

When my home was raided and tore upside down, family taken to jail, to be let our 3 days later to find all of our vehicles were seized, TV's taken, bank accounts seized, wallet taken, computers, cellphones, my covered trailer, guns, all of our files (including marriage license, birth certificates, al...l tax records and receipts, 5 vehicle titles) my entire garden of LEGALLY GROWN medical marijuana. I made some calls and I had 3 different people, including a local attorney, that recommended that I call Michael Komorn. I am so happy that I did. Michael isn't like every other attorney that I've had in the past. They are trained to make a plea deal. And, that is what they try to convince you of. Michael is of the belief that 2nd place is the first loser!!!!!! He fights to win. He isn't even afraid to yell at the judge if the judge doesn't know the laws him/herself. My case took over 6 yrs because every time we were set for trial the Attorney General of Michigan would assign a new Asst. AG to prosecute the case. Michael refused to let an innocent man be taken advantage to a broken legal system. We finally won our case. It never would have happened if I hadn't had Michael Komorn. He will be my attorney for any unlikely future problems.

It's, nice to have the Best Defender in your corner to protect you.

I highly recommend Michael Komorn @ Komorn Law and his associates that back him up. Over a few years, I researched Marijuana cases (Medical and non-Medical) and talked to many accused defendants, looking for a good Lawyer, just in case I ever needed one someday. I found a handful of attorneys that ...seemed very good, but over time I heard stories from defendants about their lawyers putting the squeeze on them the day before court and other problems. Michael Komorn never did that. One friend of mine who had the police bust in his door after a tip from Comcast, had chosen a well known excellent attorney, and then after problems with that attorney, he switched and hired Michael Komorn and with his help successfully won his case to his satisfaction. Michael Komorn would come to Court prepared for battle. When the Court did what they wanted and continued to deny motion after motion (after thinking to myself, boy that was a great argument by my attorney Michael Komorn). Denied again and again, unbelievable (you had to be there to believe it), the Railroad Train just kept going. Michael regrouped and kept going. He threw himself in front of the train and derailed it. Court later postponed my trial, after 3 years, 1 day before it was to start, for another year( which became 2 more years). Michael didn't wait for the trial, he went into action and made appeals to the Court of Appeals about the poor incorrect decisions from the Court. I had never had heard of appeals made before a trial, usually after the result of a trial. The Court of Appeals ruled instantly that 2 of 3 felony marijuana charges against me should not be charges. This left one felony charge of the sale of 1 gram (1 joint) to a licensed Medical Marijuana patient. Michael Komorn and his associates at Komorn Law listened to me and my suggestions, and didn't do anything I didn't want done. After more than 5 years of fighting the flawed System, the case was resolved to my satisfaction. When you are up against a powerful System, you need and want someone that is Battle Hardened and can think on his feet after being knocked down. It was brutal, and fighting a Court that does whatever they want (they don't need to listen, they act like their minds are already made up). It shouldn't be that tough, but if it is, and you pick Michael and his team. You will be glad you took my advice and chose Michael Komorn as your Champion, to defend you against a powerful System.

OWI knocked down to Civil Infraction

Finding yourself as a defendant to the prosecution of the State of Michigan is exhausting, tedious and terrifying at times; but there are many "GoodKomornings" when you hire Komorn Law. Michael and his team do nothing less than move mountains for their client! Michael and his team(McCormick&Miller) r...epresented and aided me in a OWI(marijuana impairment) charge for 2 years until its resolution. Komorn gave me alot of reassurance & understanding throughtout to what was going on in my case, by explaining away the intimidating judicial jargon. Michael and his team are all very knowledgeable & diligent seamlessly working as one. They offer an intimidation factor themselves with their level of professionalism and preparedness, sent my county court house scrambling. The original charge against me was an OWI in March 2019. Truthfully I think Komorn would of had it taken care of much quicker if it wasn't for how crooked my district and county are, in fact he did, having my case originally dismissed upon my first status hearing. That victory was quickly taken away starting months more of fighting, then March 2020 where Covid19 pretty much stopped the world. But it didn't slow down Komorn Law one bit, the tenacity of Michael and his team is outstanding and worth every cent. My district played hard ball but so does Komorn Law. March 2021 my OWI charge was dropped down to a Civil Infraction, upon the final processing of this charge Michael insisted on paying the cash fine himself for me then and there so I could finally wash my hands of 2 years of stress. If that isn't extreme client care I don't know what is. I was 23 when I accidentally slid into a ditch, that's what Michael saw it as, an accident that could of happened to anyone that time of year. To my county the smell of Marijuana made me a criminal, a danger to society even after its legalization. When it comes to Marijuana chumped up charges Komorn fights and hightlights that the science to prove Marijuana impairment isn't there yet, those statutes are yet to exist. That scientifically how could any court or lab prosecute beyond a reasonable doubt with lack of valid scientific proof. After two years of fighting Komorn Law got me that victory. I feel like I finally have my future back. I am extremely grateful to Komorn Law.

Outstanding Lawyer

Mr. Komorn was an outstanding lawyer. He kept me informed with everything with my case. I was going to be charged with a higher count and he got it dropped by two lesser charges. He also plead my case and my sentencing was lesser too. He fights for his client.
