Disorderly Conduct Attorney – Aggressive and Effective Defense in Michigan

Dedicated to the Passionate, Fearless, and Effective Criminal Defense Attorneys for those Charged with Disorderly Conduct

Often Used to Justify an Illegal Arrest

Disorderly conduct differs from other criminal charges because the law does not prohibit any specific, defined type of conduct. Unlike other criminal charges designed to prevent a particular type of behavior, disorderly conduct is used (and often abused) by police in several different ways. People are frequently charged with disorderly conduct by officers who want to justify a questionable or illegal arrest. What qualities would you want in your disorderly conduct attorney if you face disorderly conduct charges? You should demand someone who will provide an aggressive and effective defense.

An Aggressive, Experienced Criminal Defense Attorney Can Help

Because this offense is so common and subjectively applied, having a skilled disorderly conduct defense attorney can be extremely helpful. It is often possible to get these charges completely dropped. A disorderly conduct conviction is a criminal conviction and can result in a permanent criminal record.

If you or a loved one faces Disorderly Conduct allegations, you need a skilled and proven criminal disorderly conduct attorney on your side. Please contact DICKSTEIN & AMBERG, P.L.L.C. or call us for a free consultation with a disorderly conduct defense attorney with extensive experience defending people accused of or charged with misdemeanor and felony offenses, including Disorderly Conduct and Disturbing the Peace. We will employ our vast resources to minimize or eliminate the penalties you potentially face.

Worst Case Scenario

A misdemeanor in Michigan is a crime punishable by one (1) year or less in jail. A common misdemeanor charge in Macomb and Oakland County is “disorderly conduct.” The offense covers situations deemed to frustrate public tranquility and peace. A disorderly conduct attorney can help you avoid jail, probation, and conviction. In Michigan, disorderly conduct is punishable by up to 90 days in jail and a $500 fine for the following conduct:

  • A person jostling or roughly crowding people unnecessarily in a public place
  • A person who refuses or neglects to support their family (often used as a lesser offense to a Child Support Felony)
  • A common prostitute
  • A window peeper
  • A person who engages in an illegal occupation
  • A person engaged in indecent conduct in a public place
  • A person found loitering in a house of ill fame, or prostitution, or lewdness is practiced, encouraged, or allowed (often a lesser offense to Solicitation of a Prostitute)
  • A person who knowingly loiters in or about a place where an illegal occupation or business is conducted
  • A person who loiters in or about a police station, hospital, court building, or other public building or place to solicit the employment of legal services or the services of sureties
  • A person who is intoxicated while hunting with a firearm or other weapon
  • A person who is intoxicated in a public place and who is either endangering the safety of another person or property or is acting in a manner that causes a public disturbance (often called Public Intoxication)

Disorderly Conduct is a Crime and Has Consequences

Unfortunately, many criminal attorneys do not take disorderly conduct seriously or convince their clients that it is “not a big deal.” Any criminal charge is a big deal, and a person charged with a criminal offense deserves an attorney who will fight for them. In the past, courts routinely sentenced defendants to just a fine, but that sentence is rare. Most courts now are ordering extensive periods of probation and, in some cases, jail time. A disorderly conduct attorney is your best hope of avoiding a conviction and criminal record.

Disorderly conduct charges arising from activity at Detroit Metro Airport almost always result in incarceration. A respected, credible disorderly conduct attorney can help clients avoid harsh consequences.

The Michigan statute related to disorderly conduct at a funeral or memorial service is as follows:

A person shall not do any of the following within 500 feet of a building or other location where a funeral, memorial service, or viewing of a deceased person is being conducted or within 500 feet of a funeral procession or burial:

    (a) Make any statement or gesture or engage in any conduct that would make a reasonable person attending that funeral, memorial service, viewing, procession, or burial under the circumstances feel intimidated, threatened, or harassed.

    (b) Make any statement or gesture or engage in any conduct intended to incite or produce a breach of the peace among those attending that funeral, memorial service, viewing, or burial or traveling in that procession and that causes a breach of the peace among those attending that funeral, memorial service, viewing, or burial or traveling in that procession.

    (c) Make any statement or gesture or engage in any conduct intended to disrupt the funeral, memorial service, viewing, procession, or burial and that disrupts the funeral, memorial service, viewing, procession, or burial.

A person who violates this disorderly person law is guilty of a felony punishable by up to two (2) years in prison, years of probation, and a $5,000.00 fine. The penalties double for a second or subsequent violation.

Best Case Scenario – DICKSTEIN & AMBERG, P.L.L.C.

Disorderly Conduct charges can often be dismissed or reduced to non-criminal offenses. A great disorderly conduct criminal defense attorney may employ many statutes to keep this conviction off a client’s criminal record. In many cases, the prosecutor or police charge a disorderly conduct charge to prevent a lawsuit for illegal arrest or excessive force. The disorderly conduct attorneys at DICKSTEIN & AMBERG, P.L.L.C. can help!

If you are charged with Disorderly Conduct or Disturbing the Peace and want a lawyer who will fight for you and not minimize the importance of the case, we can help you.

Loren Dickstein I retained Loren Dickstein and his team at a moment of real crisis- facing prison over a crime i didnt commit. I received my dismissal papers today after a six month battle. Loren’s reputation preceded him. I knew he was a fighter. Loren’s experience set him apart, nothing surprised him. My phone calls were answered. My emails were returned. Every question answered. When it truly mattered, Loren’s Deviation request won the day. A 12 page work of art. Loren Dickstein and his people restored my faith in the system. I will never forget their help

Loren Dickstein I hired Loren Dickstein for my OWI 3rd charge in Michigan and he saved my career. I work in finance. A felony conviction would have ended my job and pretty much everything I’d built. I was looking at serious prison time and a permanent record that would follow me forever. Loren didn’t sugarcoat anything. He looked at the blood test results right away and found real problems with the scientific testing. He filed a motion to suppress that evidence. The prosecutor didn’t want to go through with the hearing. Instead they offered to drop it all the way down to a misdemeanor. I took the deal. No felony. No lost job. No career destruction. Loren knew exactly how to push on the weak points in the lab work and how to use that leverage to get the best possible outcome. He was straightforward, prepared, and never wasted time. If you’re facing a felony drunk driving case in Michigan and your job or license is on the line, call him. He delivered for me when it mattered most.

Loren Dickstein I hired Loren Dickstein after I learned that I was being investigated in a federal healthcare matter. I work in healthcare and had never been in a situation like this before. I was told the investigation involved healthcare and mail fraud. Hearing those words was frightening. I honestly did not know what was going to happen to me. Loren got involved before any charges were filed. He spoke with the government on my behalf and dealt with the Inspector General and the FBI. He also helped arrange for me to repay the money involved. My understanding is that Loren worked to show them what actually happened, including that I had made a bad decision, but that this did not make me a criminal. I am not a lawyer, so I cannot say exactly what happened behind the scenes. I only know that Loren kept fighting for me and, in the end, no charges were filed. The waiting was probably the worst part. There were long periods when nothing seemed to happen, and it was very difficult not knowing what the government would decide. I worried a lot. Loren understood that and was always calm with me. When I called him worried, he would explain where things stood and tell me not to assume the worst. I never had the feeling that I was just another case to him. I felt that he was watching out for me. It has now been about a year and I have not been charged with anything. From what I understand, it looks like this is finally behind me. I am very relieved and very grateful. Loren helped me through a situation that I hope I never experience again. I will always remember that when I was scared and did not know what to do, I had someone in my corner who knew how to handle it. I am thankful to him and would recommend him to anyone dealing with a serious federal investigation.

Due to a recent issue at my employment, I had reason to seek out the advice of a criminal defense lawyer. I contacted three of the top lawyers in the state. Two just wanted me to give them money. Loren is different. Although he routinely represents clients on a pre-charge basis, he was able to help me see a perspective that I had not previously noticed. It turned out that I misunderstood the situation from the beginning and did not need to hire a lawyer. If I ever need to hire one, you can bet that it would only be Loren Dickstein.

Do you like to win? If so, Loren is your man. His services are not cheap, but anything worthwhile rarely is. I simply cannot recommend him enough. If you think this praise is unwarranted, read on. Despite never so much as having seen a police officer, I was charged with domestic violence. I was notified of this over the phone, at which point I agreed to turn myself in. Later, I came to find out from Loren that I should have turned myself in with him. Anybody in a similar situation, take note. Anyhow, upon retaining Loren from jail, he immediately sprang into action. At my arraignment, the prosecutor made all kinds of egregious, impossible claims. She requested my bond be set at some ludicrous amount--I forget the exact figure, but I believe it was $15,000, no 10%. As if through some incantation, Loren was able to handily overcome this attempt, getting my bond set at $10,000 with 10%. I immediately posted the $1,000 (which was ultimately returned to me), and was out of jail. To my surprise, the frivolous charges were pursued upon my release. I made it clear to Loren that under no condition would I accept a plea bargain of any sort. I wanted to fight, and I wanted to win. He was on board from that moment, and made no attempt to sway my opinion. It was clear that he, too, wanted to win. As the wheels of justice slowly began to turn, I was asked to travel for work. This was a significant problem as one of the conditions of my bond was that I could not leave the state. Having put it off as long as I could, I finally raised the issue with Loren. He told me that, while he could not promise anything, he believed it to be possible. I decided to put my faith in him, and told my client I was working on it. What I expected to take weeks took mere days: in no time at all, I had a signed order permitting travel. That was the first win, and thanks to Loren's swift actions, I was able to advance my career in the midst of such a dreadful ordeal! As the case proceeded, the prosecution began to act in a manner I can only describe as "erratic." At some point, they lost contact with the purported victim. They subpoenaed a man I had never seen or met before. They even attempted to subpoena my elderly mother! Again, Loren acted decisively: not long after, my mother received a phone call from a prosecutor informing her that if she had received the summons, it was not necessary for her to appear. I am quite thankful for that--she was burdened enough by the events. Despite having lost contact with the so-called "victim," the prosecution continued after me! It seemed their plan was to have the police testify on behalf of the "victim!" Outrageous! But once again, Loren intervened. He filed a motion invoking the Crawford rule. When I discussed it with him, he said that while he could not guarantee success, he had never had the motion fail. Lo and behold, it did not! And with that, the police were no longer able to testify on behalf of the "victim." Another win! Are you seeing the pattern here? The prosecution persisted, setting a date for trial! I was informed by the judge that, should I proceed, I would have no further opportunities to enter a plea bargain. In other words, I had a choice: give up, or once again put my faith in Loren, and continue fighting. When I discussed the matter with Loren, he informed me that, should the "victim" not appear at the trial, that would be it: case dismissed. I opted to continue the fight. The day of the trial, I was terrified. But the "victim" never arrived, and as quickly as the ordeal had begun, it was over: case dismissed, and I walked out of the courthouse with the matter resolved--a free man, no probation, nothing about the matter on my record, and, above all else, a mother undisturbed. Later that day, Loren also informed he was waiving the remaining balance. Such generosity is greatly appreciated. I've hit the max length for a review, but that's it. If you want to win, you want Loren.

Thru A.I. Lewis & Dickstein was referred for my legal issues and though it was expensive, I retained services and it was worth it. I was represented by Parisa and Randy, and Parisa was truly amazing. She was honest, approachable, extremely thorough, and was invested in my case. What Parisa presented to the court covered anything and everything I could have asked. I was able to get Parisa information that was viable and she made it irrefutable. I highly recommend Lewis & Dickstein for representation and especially Parisa, as she was successful in taking my difficult case and making it a success. Thank you Parisa you are a star!

He is incredibly intelligent, strategic, and always willing to go the extra mile. He truly cares about the people he represents and fights tirelessly for them. If Someone I cared about were ever in serious trouble, Randy is absolutely the attorney I would want in their corner.

I’m a pretty good judge of talent and I truly feel fortunate I’ve had them in my corner. They have exceeded my expectations in every way. I’m truly grateful to them both. It only did they work on my cases and win, they got to know me as a person and showed empathy, and cared. I consider them more than attorneys I’ve hired, they are friends to me. Thank you Randy and Parisa.

Parisa is an outstanding criminal defense attorney. She helped me during a really difficult time in my life, and from our very first conversation it was clear how sharp and detail-oriented she is. She is knowledgeable and deeply understands how the court system works and has great instincts about how to approach a case that got more complicated as time went on. She always seemed to know the right move at the right time. On top of being an excellent lawyer, she's warm, personable, and genuinely cared about me as a client, not just my case. I always felt like she had my back. I can't recommend her highly enough to anyone who needs a criminal attorney they can trust.

She worked tirelessly on my case, fought to keep the charges as minimal as possible, and helped me achieve the best outcome I could have hoped for. Jessica and Randy's knowledge of the law, attention to detail, and dedication truly made a difference. They treated me with respect and never made me feel like just another case. Thanks to their hard work and advocacy, I was able to move forward with my life and keep my freedom. If you're looking for an attorney who genuinely cares about their clients and will fight for the best possible result, I highly recommend them. I'm incredibly grateful for everything they did on my behalf.

From our very first consultation I knew immediately he was exactly who I needed. He explained everything clearly and gave me a realistic and positive strategy from day one. What impressed me most was how efficiently he handled my case. I genuinely expected this process to take over a year. Loren resolved everything in just two months. His knowledge, dedication and strategic approach are truly exceptional. He treated my case as if it were his own, gave it his full attention and delivered results beyond anything I expected. If you are looking for an attorney who is experienced, strategic and genuinely cares about his clients - Loren Dickstein is the one to call.

Loren Dickstein We had Loren as our CJA attorney for a complicated RICO case in the eastern district of MI and he was truly fantastic because he listened and heard us when we discussed and explained our defense and why my husband was innocent of most of the charges and claims against him by his cooperating codefendent who was really his brother who was lying on him because of a family grudge. We got the wrong charges squashed! My husband’s deal was better than every other lawyer claimed they could get. We knew right away we had the right criminal defense lawyer right from the start!! Highly recommended!

I contacted Lewis & Dickstein after receiving a letter informing me that I needed to turn myself in for a High BAC OWI that occurred in Bloomfield. Since this was the first time I had ever been in trouble with the law, I was extremely nervous and unsure of what to expect. Shortly after contacting the office, Attorney Monarrez called me personally. From the first time I stepped into his office, I felt that I was in good hands, although I was still very concerned because of the seriousness of my case. Attorney Monarrez immediately got to work. He arranged a walk in arraignment, and I was released on a personal bond. He provided me with valuable resources, guided me on the steps I needed to take, and took the time to learn about my personal background so he could build the strongest possible case on my behalf. Throughout the four months that he handled my case, I always felt reassured whenever he walked into the courtroom. It truly felt like a weight was lifted off my shoulders knowing that he was representing me. As the case progressed, he was able to get one of my charges dismissed and ultimately secured a sentence of probation instead of jail time. I am confident that I would not have received such a favorable outcome without Attorney Monarrez’s knowledge, dedication, and hard work. He was professional, responsive, and supportive throughout the entire process. I would highly recommend Attorney Monarrez to anyone in need of legal representation, and I am extremely grateful for everything he did for me.

We had Loren on a federal exploitation of a minor charge for my husband. Needless to say, that charge was quite a shock to me! After getting Loren ans our lawyer, he made us feel comfortable and helped get my husband evaluated and treatment. He needed help for a terrible pornography addiction. This was an awful case and a terrible twist in our lives! No matter how bad things got or seemed to get, Loren saw us through the whole way and always made us feel comfortable and confident we would get the best outcome. At sentencing, he did a masterful job of convincing the judge to order a sentence that was only a third of what the US attorney was asking for. I don’t think any other lawyer could’ve done as well.

With great appreciation- 5 stars (I’d give more if possible) Thank you to Loren Dickstein. You did what you said you would do. You defended me to the best of your ability. You were honest, straightforward, and realistic. You fought and didn’t give up on me. I couldn’t have asked for more. Thank you.

I had a positive experience working with Jessica Hollan. She showed care and concern in the time she took to obtain my perspective on the incident leading to the ticket and why it happened so that she would be fully prepared when she negotiated with the prosecuting attorney. She was easy to talk with and empathic and I found this helpful in creating trust that she cared about working on my behalf and would do so. And she did, reducing my ticket to a 0 point fine (originally 3 points) and reducing the cost of the ticket, as well. Thank you, Jessica.

I highly recommend Mr. Loren Dickstein of Lewis & Dickstein, P.L.L.C. (3000 Town Center, Ste. 1330, Southfield, MI 48075). He represented my nephew in a legal matter in the United States and was outstanding throughout the entire process. Mr. Dickstein demonstrated exceptional professionalism, strong judgment, and a clear, strategic approach. He explained options and next steps in a calm, practical way, that gave our family real confidence. Thanks to his skillful handling of the case and focused negotiation, the charges were dismissed and we achieved a positive outcome. If you are looking for a lawyer who is both highly competent and genuinely committed to his clients, I would not hesitate to recommend Mr. Dickstein.

I was reaching out to find a lawyer for a family matter. Contacted several lawyer firms, only Jessica responded and offered us help in our case. She not only understood the complicated situation totally, but also offered advice and support that helped our case tremendously and favored our expectations when she presented our case in court. I recommend Jessica anytime you are in need of help.

Nic was an all star, very knowledgeable, professional and passionate. He defended our son's innocence with a purpose not just a job. He answered all our questions no matter what time of day. He pivoted on every angle for the best possible outcome which was a dismissal.

Jessica is an excellent lawyer and a very empathetic person. I am very satisfied with the results. My previous lawyer obtained an offer that I wasn’t happy with, and for that reason ,I decided to contact jessica for a second opinion. After speaking with her ,I decided to have her handle my case, and I didn’t regret it. She managed to get the charge dismissed .I definitely recommend her services.

Clear Thinking, Strong Advocacy, and Total Confidence I have an associate’s degree in engineering, so I approach problems logically and pay close attention to details, which is exactly why hiring Loren Dickstein made sense to me. From the start, he broke a stressful legal situation into clear, understandable steps and explained what mattered, what did not, and why certain choices carried real risk while others did not. Nothing felt like guesswork because every move had a purpose. He knew the facts cold, anticipated issues before they surfaced, and adjusted strategy quickly when circumstances changed, always explaining things in plain language without talking down to me. Just as important, he treated me like a person, not a file, by returning calls, following through, and doing exactly what he said he would do. The outcome exceeded my expectations, but the real value was the confidence I had throughout the process knowing my case was in capable, disciplined hands. If you want a lawyer who thinks clearly, communicates directly, and truly understands the system, Loren Dickstein deserves five stars without hesitation.

Lawyer or Magician? Hard to tell! I highly recommend Loren Dickstein. He did a great job on my case. I truly did not understand what was happening and he took the time to walk me through the process step by step. I likely was not his easiest client, but he never let that show. The officer on my case didn’t like me at all! Somehow, Loren worked his magic and got him to back off so we could reach a very positive decision. I’d recommend Loren to anyone I care about.

No. 1 Advocate for your Advantage My name is Mel. I hired Loren to help me because the prosecutor wasn’t telling me what’s going on and didn’t care what I wanted. Under the crime victim’s rights law, they are supposed to include people. Loren contacted them and got them to talk to me. I wanted restitution and Loren made sure I was protected. He is a great advocate!

Parisa got my DV case dismissed. She is different from other attorneys. She doesn’t interrupt me and patiently listens to my concerns first. She gives a calm, confident, and ruthless impression, which is why I retained her after talking to so many attorneys. She emails me quickly about every step and detail of my case, such as motions/deviations she’s filing or evidence she receives. Some attorneys are not this detail-oriented. Additionally, she confirms your professional status, like your medical license and your immigration status, to ensure that the result won’t negatively affect you. She is patient with her clients but very effective and ruthless in court. She isn't afraid to go to trial if needed. While she and her firm can be very expensive, you want to retain a very competent attorney, especially when you are concerned about your career or immigration status. You don’t want to retain a random or “affordable” attorney because it will be a nightmare. For me, I am a very picky person and want my attorney to be effective and aggressive in court. Parisa and her firm will do everything possible to obtain a dismissal or a not-guilty verdict. She is not a random attorney who would convince you to accept a lame plea deal. It was very stressful to have a pending criminal charge. However, I felt much safer after retaining Parisa and her firm. I am thankful for Parisa.
