Novi Criminal Defense Lawyer

Legal defense is about more than fighting the charges against you in court. Sure, that could be a part of your process, especially when there are weaknesses in a prosecutor’s case. However, the legal defense process is also about the charges and how they could impact your life. Losing your freedom is just one of the possible outcomes.  You need an overall strategy to deal with the entire criminal justice process, which you can get with the help of a Novi criminal defense lawyer.

Novi Criminal Defense Attorneys Who Focus on the Big Picture

At The Law Offices of Bradley J. Friedman, we work with you on the overall picture. We learn about you and your own personal stakes first. While we deal with the legal issues surrounding your charge, we also focus on the personal aspects and how they will affect you. We believe that it is simply not possible to be an effective advocate without knowing more about the person for whom we are advocating.

The time to call us is as soon as you think you may be facing charges. Time is always of the essence in a criminal prosecution. Prosecutors often try to show overwhelming force early, in part to frighten defendants. They want quick and effortless convictions, so they could move on to the next defendant. It does not have to be this way. While an attorney’s goal should not just be to make life difficult for the prosecutor, their involvement could slow down a rush to judgment and prosecution by doing the following:

• Keeping law enforcement from violating your rights by speaking to you without an attorney
• Aggressively challenging evidence that was obtained in violation of your rights
• Speaking with the prosecutor to explain your story and to clear up and misconceptions
• Giving you advice to keep you from making a decision without knowledge of your full range of options

Mounting a Strong Legal Defense for You

We believe in a strong legal defense for our clients, no matter the charge. This could mean obtaining reduced charges or fighting them altogether. The strongest legal defense is when our client is informed and empowered to make decisions with all of the necessary information. Without it, you may be left to navigate the legal system on your own when your freedom and reputation are at stake.  Sometimes, the most important part of your case comes when you fight a lawyer who can give you straight answers after they get to know you.

We have prosecutorial experience and a deep knowledge of how the law enforcement system works. We explain to you how the prosecutor views your case and how it may unfold. While there are always uncertainties in the criminal justice system, we strive to make sure that you are as informed as possible.
