How We Defend Felony Charges in Lenawee County
We take a proactive and thorough approach to defending felony charges. Here’s how we fight for your future:
- Investigate the facts: We analyze police reports, witness statements, forensic evidence, and surveillance footage.
- Challenge unlawful actions: If your rights were violated through illegal searches, seizures, or arrests, we will seek to suppress that evidence.
- Negotiate when appropriate: In some cases, we can reduce charges through plea agreements or alternative sentencing options.
- Fight at trial: If going to trial is in your best interest, we will build a compelling defense and challenge the prosecution’s case in court.
Our goal is always to minimize your exposure to penalties, protect your freedom, and preserve your reputation.
