This guy really knows what he is doing. With 15 years of experience in law, that is unsurprising. When I made the first phone call to his office to get a consultation, he dropped a lot of great points on how he could beat my case and why I should go with his firm. At first, they seemed too good to b...e true and I was suspicious of his points of defense, as I thought he was just trying to sell me on his service but he proved everything he said in the initial consultation as the case progressed. I urge you to at least give him a call for the consultation (particularly if your case is from Electric Forest or a similar event as I know personally that he has won many cases originated from there). He proved his brilliance when he wrote an unbelievably well-written motion to suppress. It was absolutely full of quote after quote, reference after reference. It honestly boggles my mind how he was able to to combine so many relevant sources into one paper. On top of all of his professional qualifications, he is an incredibly understanding person, which is a hard quality to find in most lawyers. He is in the business to help people with a second chance, not for the money.

Gary Springstead was all around a very good choice for my defense. He promptly took my case with much confidence, and although being states away, he kept me informed with the process and truly showed compassion and care for the severity of issues I was facing. I would absolutely recommend him for any... kind of defense, and specifically for festival related defense because it seemed to be his specialty. Thanks again to Gary!

From the time I made my first inquiry at springstead & Bartish, I was confident that Gary was the perfect fit for helping us with our sons legal matters that developed from the Electric Forest Festival. Although we live out of state, he was accessible and accommodating and provided us the oppotunity... to handle parts of our case from afar. Gary is very knowledeable, attentive and clearly had my son's best interest in mind! We were extremely happy with the outcome of our case and would highly recommend Gary to anyone looking for an excellent attorney in Michigan!

My case was a tough one, charged with numerous felonies. It was an uphill battle throughout the hole ordeal. Gary used all of his knowledge and professional tactics, but was still unable to persuade my total innocence. But in the end, he was able to get a judgement that I am able to live with. I a...m very pleased with his efforts and I would recommend him to anyone. He is very knowledgable, energetic and professional, and has numerous resources that he can draw from to help the case. He takes your case very seriously and whole heartedly.
