Michigan Criminal Defense Lawyer

Have you been charged with a crime in Michigan?

If you have been arrested and charged with a criminal offense, you are no doubt very concerned about your future. This is a real concern, as many criminal charges have very harsh penalties in Michigan, and in many cases, a conviction will result in years spent in state prison. Some charges are less extreme, but even a DUI conviction for a first offender can mean 93 days in jail and a 6 month driver's license suspension. More serious felony charges have terrible penalties and your life can completely change, in many cases forever. If you are facing a criminal charge, it is crucial that you contact a criminal defense attorney at our office. Attorney Garrison is a skilled criminal defense lawyer with years of experience fighting aggressively for clients charged with even the most serious of criminal offenses.

Though your future may seem uncertain or you may have been told by the arresting officer or police investigator that you have no hope of avoiding a conviction, you always have options. Your constitutional rights are in place for a reason. Make sure they are protected by a competent attorney who will work tirelessly to protect your freedom and future, no matter the severity of charges you face. This is the level of legal counsel you will find at our office.

If you have been charged with a crime anywhere in Michigan, contact our offices immediately for a free evaluation by a criminal defense attorney. In this meeting, we will discuss the facts of your criminal matter and the defenses you have available to you. We've helped countless people get through this very difficult time.

Enlist Powerful Defense for Your Case

You may have been arrested for DUI/OWI, drug possession or a similar misdemeanor offense or may be facing an extensive investigation for a white collar crime such as fraud or forgery. No matter the circumstances of your criminal law matter or the particular nature of the charges or allegations against you, you can feel confident in trusting your case to us. We handle cases related to illegal drugs, including drug trafficking charges. If you or your child has been charged with a minor in possession for possessing alcohol under the age of 21, you need the assistance of a criminal defense attorney.

Our legal team can also defend your rights against domestic violence charges. We understand the humiliating nature of these charges and we will aggressively fight to keep your charges from going on your public record. We will investigate the motives behind why you have been accused of a domestic violence crime in order to determine if your action was simply a defense action. Charges of child abuse are taken very seriously by the state of Michigan, and prosecutors will not stop until they have charged you with the full extent of the law. If you are convicted of child abuse or kidnapping a child who you don't have custody over, you may be restricted from seeing the ones you love.

Each case has its own unique and individual details and circumstances. In order to effectively defend criminal charges, it is critical that you obtain counsel early. A compelling and effective defense begins as quickly after the arrest as possible. Even if you are still under investigation for a criminal offense, it is absolutely crucial that you get legal representation before answering questions by law enforcement, state investigators or federal authorities. Without legal representation, you are at risk, as it is absolutely true that anything you say will be used against you. You need legal advice when charged with a crime, and our office will review your case immediately and advise you how best to move forward with your defense.

All felony offenses are frightening, and if you are convicted, your life will change radically. You could spend many years in the Michigan Department of Corrections, not knowing when or if you will make parole.
