Criminal Defense
Attorneys for Criminal Charges in Michigan
When a defendant is accused of a crime, is arrested or is facing formal criminal charges, he or she has the right to legal counsel from a Michigan criminal attorney. In essence, this is the defendant exercising his or her right to raise a defense against the allegations he or she is currently facing. Depending on the unique case, an attorney may be able to raise any of a number of common defenses to challenge the government's case, such as:
These strategies may apply no matter what charges a defendant is facing, ranging from a first theft offense or DUI all the way to a serious violent crime such as murder. It will take a thorough investigation on the part of the attorney as well as a complete understanding of the legal procedure and the U.S. Constitution to ensure a defendant's rights are not violated at any point in the legal process. Criminal defense counsel serves to balance the power and authority the government (law enforcement and prosecuting attorneys) have in criminal cases and is an essential right that should not be ignored.
