Joshua Marlin Covert

Josh went above and beyond representing me in court. While, ultimately, I was convicted for operating while intoxicated, Josh was consistently open for advice pertaining to things inside and outside of the case. He stuck with me through my battle with the court and even checked in with me after the f...act to see how I was faring with probation. Josh not only defended me in court, but showed that he cared about my well-being. If anyone I know gets mixed up with a substance charge in the future, I will definitely refer Josh.

I was arrested in February 2013 on a super drunk driving charge. Following my release from jail, I sought consult with other attorneys in the Lansing area. As I was given absolutely nothing from the police or jail (no ticket or any sort of paper work), the general consensus seemed to be that the cour...ts would inform me via mail about an arraignment and other legal obligations. I heard nothing for 2 months until I was called by a police detective to inform me that a warrant for my arrest had been put out. After getting that news, I contacted the Nichols Law firm whom I had discovered through the Internet but had not spoken with yet. I was put into contact with Josh within the hour. Josh immediately started helping me before I even hired him. He called the police to find out everything that was involved and promptly called me back and explained the entire situation and even offered advice about the best way to handle the situation. He then invited me to his office for a consultation and I agreed to hire him that day. Josh was extremely supportive and knowledge about the DUI/OWI process during my experience with him. He kept me updated on everything and always immediately informed me if any new or pertinent information about my case had come up and was always willing to discuss anything that was worrying me. I was initially charged with an OWI enhanced (super drunk) but with Josh's representation the charge was reduced to a regular OWI (DUI). And with Josh as my attorney, I was able to avoid all court imposed punishment besides a fine. NO probation. NO community service. Josh is a great lawyer and has become a great friend. I would STRONGLY recommend him to anyone that has to go through the stress and ordeal of a drunk driving case. He will make everything so much easier for you.

I first spoke with Joshua about an hour before i was due to appear in court. I called out of terror and desperation after my original attorney basically bailed on me. Perhaps my predicament might have been too much to handle but not for Joshua Covert. After our first meeting he gave me his personal ...cell number and said to call anytime. In the past I've hired attourneys that are only available 9-5 monday through friday. I had a few times where stress would start to get the best of me and numerous occasions where I spoke with Mr. Covert and he would reassure me that we had a good case and nothing to worry about. He really seems to enjoy helping people the best way he can and loves being in his line of work. Long story short, I was being charged with a second DUI. Josh was able to help me prove that i was not guilty of that charge but unfortunately it still isnt legal to have alcohol while walking down the road! I highly reommend Josh to anyone that is in need of a very educated and HIGHLY knowledgeable attorney.

Josh got me a usage charge wich resulted in a small fine. The original charges were manufacture and delivering. (Over 20 plants) also it was my 3rd related marijuana charge. This guy know what's he doing and he knows the Michigan medical marijuana laws very well. If u have any issues with growing or ...weed related offense give him call. He'll help you out.
