Lansing Felony Crimes Attorney
Felonies
While Michigan was the first English-speaking government in the world to ban the death penalty back in 1846, our state still enacts very severe penalties for those convicted of felony crimes. Felony sentences can be anywhere between a fine and probation to life imprisonment without parole. When convicted of a felony, you will permanently lose your right to possess a firearm and, depending on your crime, you may also lose your driver’s license for an extended period. Additionally, many courts will force felons to pay the court costs, attend counseling, take part in drug or alcohol treatment, provide community service, and more. As you can tell, it’s critical to have a strong criminal defense in Lansing when you are facing felony charges.
A Lansing criminal attorney from our office will review the evidence against you and fight its legal admission into the courtroom. If any evidence was obtained illegally or shows itself to be inconclusive, we will try to ban its use in trial. We will also independently investigate your case and work to get evidence in your favor, including expert witnesses and forensics, if necessary. If we don’t think you can beat a charge, we will work with the prosecuting attorney to create a winning plea bargain, minimizing your charges and your sentence. Common felonies that have been defended by a Lansing criminal lawyer from our offices include:
• Assault & battery
• Domestic violence
• Fraud
• Homicide
• Probation violations
• Rape
• Robbery
• Sexual assault
• Theft
• White collar crimes
• And more...
