It won’t be the judge, who is supposed to be neutral but is increasingly getting tougher on defendants, in court process and sentencing.
It won’t be the police. They arrested you and will testify against you if necessary, as a witness for the prosecution. Even if they are fair, they are there to help get you convicted.
It won’t be the prosecutor, who is focused on a large caseload, and conviction rates. Even a fair district attorney isn’t likely to make the extra effort to treat you compassionately if you are looking to plead guilty.
When you are called into court, and you hear them say “The case of the state of Michigan vs. You”, you will truly understand that the full force of the government wants to find you guilty. The state does not care about what is fair.
But we do. We are criminal defense attorneys in Michigan and Chicago and our only job is to fight for you. And that’s what we do, in criminal courts across Michigan, from misdemeanor cases like OWI, drug possession, reckless driving, probation violations, and assault, to serious felony cases like Fraud, Bad Checks, Criminal Sexual Conduct, Robbery, Burglary, Delivery, and Manufacture of Drugs, Possession of Narcotics, Gun Charges, Assault with Intent to do Great Bodily Harm, Homicide, Manslaughter, Probation and Parole Violations where your life and freedom are on the line.
We also handle Michigan Secretary of State cases like the reinstatement of driver’s licenses and others before the DLAD. The criminal defense attorneys from My Michigan Defense Law Firm are committed to helping you.
