Badass, Passionate and Competent

Back in March 2015, my home and two businesses were shuttered by the Western Wayne Narcotics Unit, a cross functional task force. After arresting and holding myself, my 21 year old son and an employee in jail for 36 hours, they rifled through every crevice of my personal belongings, picking and choos...ing what they'd like to steal. Yes steal. Many things were taken, and not written on the seizure list. Regardless to say, my son and I were charged with five felony charges for operating a legal dispensary in Canton. That's when I called Michael Komorn. This man was a godsend. The amount of passion and dedication he had to the case was amazing and much more than any other attorney would have offered. His tenacity over the four year trial uncovered that the prosecuting attorney (from the state), lead detective and the confidential informant all PERJURING themselves in open court! Michael was able to prove that the search warrant was illegal, ultimately a violation of our 4th amendment rights, dropping felonies in Washtenaw County where my home and one business was. Wayne county felony charges, based on the inconsistencies with the prosecutions case, additional felonies were dismissed. The case isn't over. The gross injustice that has taken place in the State is unforgivable. We have filed several official grievances against the police department, the Wayne County Judge (former assistant DA) and a civil suit pending against the confidential informant. Without the help and support, emotionally and legally, Michael will forever be a lifesaver to me. Facing 40 years in prison, you should know who to trust. Micheal is the one. He gave me and my family the opportunity to rebuild. For that I am forever grateful.

The character of a man

Let me start by saying I have known Mr. Komoron for several years and in all the years I have known him he has always been at the forefront of the battle for justice. Attorneys sometimes get a bad reputation simply for not working for free. Well who does? Attorney's have the right to feed and care fo...r their families the same as the rest of us. I see some people quoting exerts of the law and telling people to defend themselves but I am reminded of another old quote :  “He who represents himself has a fool for a client”. That's Abraham Lincoln who was also an attorney. We I can attest to the fact that when we were robed at gun point by law enforcement Mr Komoron was there to help. And after they robbed us we did not even have enough money to buy my insulin or food for our family. Even worse when a vindictive prosecutor with a very sorted past filed charges against us it looked very bleak, but Mr. Komoron called and assured us everything would be ok. And that was important. I seen several cases where the victim ran out of money or for what ever reason tried to defend themselves with a very poor outcome. So for almost 3 years these parasites tortured our family and Mr. Komorn never once faltered. At some points it seemed as if he was the only person standing between us and what appeared to be a large organized crime organization hell bent on killing us off. Money well spent I would say. I should mention that we were still unable to even cover the cost of his gas to come defend us, none the less he would get up before dawn and make the long hazardous trip on his on dime just to defend us. I have never known anyone in any field to to something like this. And not once did he ever ask when we were going to pay, he was always planning ways to defend the next attack. He did his research and was prepared every time. I remember once getting a message from him and thinking to myself what all he must be giving up just to help us. Family time comes to mind first, sleep, there must be a ton energy diverted to this cause. I like quotes so her is another: “You can easily judge the character of a man by how he treats those who can do nothing for him.” I also believe you sometimes get what you pay for. Mr. Komorn and Komorn Law are a big bang for the buck. At one point he had out maneuvered them so bad that the judge sunk to a new low by saying “we do things differently up north”. Well that's a true statement considering they tried to make up the law as they went. However Mr. Komorn knows the law front and back and after years of dealing with parasites he knows exactly what to expect form them. His staff is top notch and friendly. Every time we spoke to anyone for his office we felt like they really cared as to what was going on. And Mr. Komorn never once advised us to “take a plea”. As I seen several others tell their clients to do. It will be easier they say....Well Mr. Komorn believes in standing up for whats right. He always said we can fights this and we can win. And we did. He even had the prosecutor begging him not to sue them. Our family will forever be in debt to Mr. Komorn even after the monetary value is paid.

2nd OWI and VOP

I hired Michael at a very difficult and stressful time. I had two charges pending and was facing jail time. He handled them with great care and confidence and kept me in the loop during the whole process. He got my most serious charge (2nd OWI) dismissed because the officer did not go by the book and... violated my rights. My other charge which was a VOP over six years old was handled very well and I had the best outcome possible. I would recommend Michael to anyone I know. He is a great attorney that will fight for you just like he did for me.
