The Importance Of Good Criminal Defense
Being charged with any criminal offense — from OWI to drug possession, theft, assault and battery or an even more serious charge — can be a truly scary and intimidating event. You may feel ashamed and powerless. These emotions could cause you to make mistakes, like trying to defend yourself against these charges alone. A skilled criminal defense lawyer is crucial in your fight as they will explain and defend your rights.

OWI/OWVI — Drug Cases — Traffic Violations — Misdemeanors And Felonies
I negotiate vigorously for my clients and will defend you aggressively in court if your case goes that far. On numerous occasions, I have been able to get charges reduced or present my clients’ situation in a way that convinces prosecutors to seek plea reductions my client can live with. My Michigan criminal defense knowledge covers misdemeanors and felonies, such as:
- Drunk driving and impaired driving at all levels — including OWI and OWVI, which are referred to as DWI/DUI in other states
- Drug cases, including marijuana, cocaine, heroin and methamphetamine possession
- Maintaining a drug house
- A range of traffic violations, such as speeding, failure to stop or yield, and driving on a suspended license
- Theft, retail fraud and embezzlement
- Domestic violence
- Assault and battery
- Habitual offender defense
As an experienced criminal law attorney, I can also work with clients on getting charges sealed or expunged. My track record in our Michigan courts includes winning acquittal in a complex embezzlement case, negotiating reduced charges in OWI cases and achieving favorable outcomes in numerous other criminal cases. I can also provide referrals to capable attorneys who can help you no matter what your legal issue.
