Equitable and Honorable

Mr. Plotkin is there for you when you need him. He is understandable and will listen to you no matter the circumstance. In every scenario he is more than ready to act accordingly and to help in any legal implications. He is one of the best at what he does, and his level of professionalism cannot be m...atched.

Great Results and extremely reliable

I originally hired Sandy back in 2016 as my attorney in a criminal matter. He’s extremely reliable and incredibly versed in all matters of the law. I had great results on my case and he’s came to my rescue numerous occasions, both as a lawyer and a consultant. I would never hire another attorney unle...ss specifically referred to them by Sanford Plotkin.

Corey N. - Client of Sanford

I was recommended Sanford through an attorney from California to help me with my case in Michigan. Sanford gave me the best possible advice, was honest about the possibilities and guided me throughout the whole process. He truly cared for me and did whatever he could to reduce my sentencing, in which... he did tremendously. He has also since helped me file motions and have nothing but the best results. I could not of asked for a better attorney!

Great job dealing with the Feds.

Sanford Plotkin handled my federal drug case a couple years back. I was in a bad place, people flipping, and he did great negotiatin with the feds for me. Hope I don't need him again! :) But would call again if need be.

  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
