Criminal Law

For residents of Waterford Township and surrounding areas, nothing is more threatening than interference with basic freedoms that come from contact with the Waterford Police Department, the Oakland County Sheriff, or other law enforcement agencies. Our law firm is well familiar with both judges on 51st District Court located in Waterford Township, MI.

Every accused person is entitled to a constitutional presumption of innocence until proven guilty in a court by evidence beyond a reasonable doubt. Persons charged with a crime who maintain their innocence deserve the best possible defense constructed by highly-qualified lawyers. Even persons who want to plead guilty because they broke the law are entitled to have their constitutional rights protected during the criminal justice process. Representation by a competent lawyer from our firm provides those assurances.
