Arrested Police Officer in Michigan

Our Ingham County criminal defense attorneys were a former Michigan law enforcement officer, prosecutor’s office attorney, and Marines who know the value of civil servantry and hard work.

We also know that while law enforcement officers are tasked with upholding the law, they are not immune to being accused of criminal offenses. When they are, they have the same legal rights as any other citizens, and we are here to help uphold them.

With vast experience on the streets, both sides of the courtroom, and the battlefield, our skilled East Lansing defense lawyers’ dedication to producing positive results for our clients is unmatched. That includes defending Michigan law enforcement when they have been arrested for any crime.

Criminal Defense for Police Officer

Why a Michigan Police Officer May Need a Criminal Defense Attorney After Being Arrested

Even as a current or former Michigan police officer who understands the system, you should act quickly. Partnering with a dedicated defense team after an arrest can help reduce the impact on your personal, professional, and public life.

Here is how our skilled East Lansing criminal defense attorneys can help:

  • Protection of Rights

Like anyone else, police officers have constitutional rights, including the right to remain silent and seek legal counsel. Our attorneys work to protect those rights and ensure fair treatment throughout the process.

  • Investigation

Our East Lansing criminal defense attorneys conduct independent investigations to gather evidence and build a strong defense. This process may include challenging the prosecution’s case and identifying procedural errors or misconduct.

  • Courtroom Advocacy

Working with a skilled defense attorney is essential for effective courtroom representation. We present a clear case, apply legal analysis, cross-examine witnesses, and argue to protect the officer’s interests.

  • Negotiation Skills

Our attorneys negotiate with prosecutors on behalf of the police officer to pursue reduced charges or a favorable resolution. If a conviction occurs, we work to limit the impact by seeking reduced penalties or alternatives such as probation or diversion programs.

Client Reviews

“Mr. Hall was a huge help. Being a former police officer and a former prosecutor was evident in his knowledge of both traffic and criminal laws. Even when I was willing to accept an initial plea deal, he knew that there was so little evidence against me that we should counter the offer. I went from a potential criminal case to a fine and 0 points. I could not be happier with my outcome. Thank you Mr. Hall!”

“I had an excellent experience with this law office. Ben Hall was able to handle my situation promptly and thoroughly, I was thankful we were able to avoided the hassle of going to court. I was looking for housing and if that isn’t an overwhelming task in itself, once I found a place that had vacancies they did not want to allow my support dog and the lady responsible for processing my application began sending me in circles and improperly handled the application process. It was to the point I didn’t think I was going to get housing when I contacted Ben Hall. He dove right in and explained to me the process and options and he guided me how to proceed and also contacted the housing development and let them know what their options were and how this was going to go if they continued to unjustly process my application… I received housing promptly with no further issues! So thankful for this option to pay such a minimal fee to have a lawyer in your corner and build a relationship with them. In a world were nothing is for sure it is a comfort to have such ease of access with this law office.”

“Ben was very generous with his time and expertise. He asked straightforward questions and offered excellent options to meet our objectives. Amazing turn around on short deadlines. We needed a legal opinion dealing with a conflict of interest on a local school board. WOW! Ben really understood the issues andbour concerns. He produced an amazing 8 page opinion in in a weeks time. And he worked with us on minimizing legal fees.”
