Ann Arbor Criminal Defense Lawyers

Criminal Defense Lawyer Serving Clients in Ann Arbor, Michigan

Being arrested and charged with a crime is just the start of a process that could impact the rest of your life. As a defendant, you should never feel that you are completely at the mercy of the criminal justice system, resigned to accept what is offered to you. Instead, you can hire an attorney for your case to be your advocate and counselor as you deal with your situation. Everyone needs an experienced Ann Arbor criminal defense lawyer in their corner, and that is where we can help.

We Start By Listening to You

Many people want to just make their legal issues go away as soon as possible. We understand why, but that is not always the best course of action. Before defendants make decisions, they must understand what could happen as a result of the outcome of their case. While nobody should be expected to see years into the future, they should understand how the resolution of criminal charges may affect them.  At the Law Offices of Bradley J. Friedman, we take the time to learn about you and what you may have to lose before we give you advice about what you should do in your situation. 

As a criminal defendant, you also want to know about how the system works and what the prosecutor may be thinking as they handle your case. We have experience as a prosecutor and can fill you in on how law enforcement may be viewing your charges and their possible strategies. This also means that, if you decide that negotiating and speaking with a prosecutor is your best option, we can help. Law enforcement also has their own interests in your case, and we understand their motives.

Our Practice Areas

Here are some of the practice areas in which we can help:

• Criminal Defense
• Domestic violence
• DUI
• Drug charges
• Assault
• Sex crimes
• Weapons charges

Everyone has the right to an attorney in their case, no matter the charges. You need your attorney to give you advice and to protect your rights in a judgment-free and effective manner. This is how we practice law. As our client, we strive to work with you on legal strategies and to be a diligent advocate on your behalf.

We will help you decide when it is in your best interest to fight the charges. If so, we will wage an aggressive campaign to point out weaknesses in the prosecution’s case and to keep them from using evidence that may have been obtained in violation of your rights. This is not something that the average defendant has the capacity to do on their own. The legal system can be a complex and unforgiving place, especially when you do not have an experienced attorney fighting for you.
