Michigan Criminal Defense Law Firm
The criminal defense system in our country requires that attorneys, particularly criminal defense law firms in Michigan, be familiar with different types of charges and the crimes that are allegedly committed.
This is because in Michigan, criminal defense can range across a broad spectrum. This includes petty thievery, generally (but not always) committed in residential neighborhoods and with small businesses. The dollar value of these crimes tends to be small, less than $10,000. But criminal defense in Michigan, a headquarters for medium and large-size corporations, can also encompass what are typically referred to as white collar crimes, including Internet fraud and other computer crimes, embezzlement, bribery, conspiracy and protection orders. Drivers license suspension and restoration cases happen across all demographics and income strata, and yet are critically essential to maintaining an ability to work and conduct one’s business and personal affairs.
