Drivers license restoration cases take discipline and dedication to the client in order to be successful. The Department of State has rules and protocols and expectations that change and evolve over time. I have to know the current status of things at the Department of State in order to be successful.

Recently, I helped a client obtain a full and unrestricted license. I properly prepared proofs and testimony.

Successful case victory for a very deserving client.

School is starting back up in Michigan. And that means that there will be cases involving student discipline.

Your student has legal rights while in school and out of school. Constitutional rights apply to minors. Constitutional rights apply to all students. And constitutional rights apply to parents.

If you have questions about your rights as a student or as a parent, then I should be your first call. I handle student discipline cases and Title IX cases and special education cases throughout the State of Michigan.

Call me right away with all of your education law needs.

Drunk driving cases get resolved through plea based convictions in courtrooms throughout the State of Michigan every day. For many people, such a conviction is their first and only offense. The person convicted learns their lesson and adjusts their behavior and takes advantage of the rehabilitative programs that are part of the process.

For those individuals that have a first time operating while intoxicated offense conviction and meet other qualifications, Michigan allows for an expungement of the criminal conviction. The court must be convinced that the person has benefited from the rehabilitative programs and that the person is otherwise worthy of an expungement.

Recently, I was successful in expunging a first time operating while intoxicated conviction for a very deserving client. I prepared and produced the proper proofs for the Court, and my application to set aside the conviction was granted.

Case victory. Call me for all of your expungement needs.

I handle civil litigation cases. I know the law, and I come prepared for my clients. I am also not afraid to take a case to trial and tell the opposing counsel to call its first witness. That gives me an advantage over certain other attorneys and litigants that are unprepared for trial.

Recently, I obtained a dismissal of a case for a very deserving client. Case victory.

Call me right away for all of your civil litigation needs.

Practicing family law takes dedication and effort. I have to know and understand my clients. I have to learn and identify the family dynamics and what is at the core of any identifiable issues.

I also have to know the court system and the friend of the court system and the law and the procedure necessary to navigate through every situation.

An interesting part of driver's license restoration cases is that the cases take time - often several years - to complete.

In most cases, when I obtain a driver's license for a client that had his or her license revoked, the client must drive with an ignition interlock device on the client's vehicle for a minimum of 12 months. That means that I have to prepare a client for the original hearing, obtain the restricted license for the client, wait a minimum of 12 months, and then prepare the client for a second hearing - and ultimately obtain a full and unrestricted license for the client.

I get to know my clients. I get to like my clients. I spend a lot of time with my clients. We collectively go through the energy and effort and time expenditure to get things done.

So when I obtain the full and unrestricted license for the client, it is a proud moment in time.

Recently, I was able to complete this journey with a very well deserving client. I diligently prepared the case and all proofs. I guided my client. And I was able to obtain a full and unrestricted license for this client.

Case victory. Call my office right away for all of your driver's license restoration needs.

When I represent a personal protection order case, I have to understand the dynamics that are occurring between the two sides. I have to know the story that needs to be told. I have to investigate both sides and find the proper pathway to success, applying the facts to the law.

Recently, I was successful in obtaining a termination of the personal protection order for two deserving clients. I steered the hearings in the direction that told my clients' stories.

Motion to terminate the personal protection order granted in both cases.

Call my office right away for all of your personal protection order needs.

Preparation leads to success. I have practiced criminal defense law in Michigan for nearly 18 years. When I represent a client, I know the law and I engage in a detailed investigation.

Recently, I obtained a dismissal of a misdemeanor charge, which would have had significant collateral consequences for my client and my client's profession.

Case dismissed. Successful victory for a deserving client.

Call me right away for all of your Michigan criminal defense needs.
