Defending Your Rights Against Shaken Baby Syndrome Charges We’ve seen more than our fair share of tough battles as Michigan criminal defense attorneys. But when it comes to defending against Shaken Baby Syndrome (SBS) charges, the stakes are sky-high. The Michigan Supreme Court’s ruling in People v. Lemons serves as a stark reminder: expert witnesses can make […]

  Welcome back and thanks for joining us for this Q and A session about the changes going into effect now that Michigan residents voted to legalize recreational marijuana. As we pointed out in our previous article, the new law may have been voted in, but it doesn’t go into effect for about another month, […]

  This question comes up once in a while and every time it does, we’re always amazed at how little people know about extradition. Then again, it isn’t something that the average person has to deal with very often (or ever!), so it makes sense that not many people would understand what’s involved. To reduce […]

  Thanks for joining us again  for this discussion on entrapment. As we explained in the previous article, here in Michigan, there’s a difference between being lied to by the cops, and being entrapped by the police. One is legal and one isn’t. Specifically, it’s legal for the cops to lie to you, but not […]

  On the list of U.S. states with the highest exoneration rate after wrongful conviction, Michigan comes in at number five. Which is appalling, if you live in the Great Lakes state and believe in ‘justice for all’. Because it means we’ve got it wrong so many times in the past, and that so many […]

  Hey there, we’re glad you made it back!

So far we’ve covered the […]

We get asked this a lot. Going to jail is pretty terrible, and no one wants to do it (understandably!) So if there’s any kind of alternative available, people want to know if it’s an option. But the criminal justice system isn’t Burger King. You can’t have it your way.   You don’t just get […]

  Welcome back. We’ve been talking about why court appointed attorneys are often a bad choice (if you were hoping for a good defense!). If you just found this and you missed the first article, we’ll wait a moment until you get caught up… There, you ready? Let’s pick up where we left off last […]

  Welcome back and thanks for joining us again for this discussion about the rights you have during and after your arrest. We understand it’s a scary time for you, and you’re probably more focused on trying to get out of jail and back to your life. You may not have even thought about your […]

  Picture this: You’re sitting around in your living room, reading the paper while your kids watch some goofy show on TV. Suddenly there’s a knock at the door. You get up, wondering who it is and what they want. Looking through the glass in your front door, you see it’s the cops, and you […]
