The Macomb County Circuit Court
The Macomb County Circuit Court is located at 40 N. Main St., Mt Clemens, MI 48043. Macomb circuit court judges are notoriously tough and harsh with individuals charged with criminal offenses; however, most of them will take the time to listen and consider arguments made by skilled, respected lawyers. Some lawyers say there is a presumption of guilt in Macomb County, and innocence must be proven. Many lawyers refuse to practice criminal defense in Macomb County and will not take cases in that jurisdiction. We have achieved extraordinary results for our clients through tenacious, aggressive, fearless, and zealous legal representation.
The Circuit Court in Macomb County serves Center Line, Eastpointe, Fraser, Grosse Pointe Shores, Memphis, Mount Clemens, New Baltimore, Richmond, Roseville, St. Clair Shores, Sterling Heights, Utica, Warren, Armada, New Haven, Romeo, Chesterfield Charter Township, Clinton Charter Township, Harrison Charter Township, Washington Charter Township, Bruce Township, Lenox Township, Macomb Township, Ray Township, Richmond Township, and Shelby Charter Township.
Polices and Practice of the Macomb County Prosecutor’s Office
The Macomb County Prosecutor’s Office is known for being almost militant in prosecuting cases regardless of whether there is substantial evidence of a person’s guilt. Potential new clients frequently ask, “Why are they going after me like this?” The truth is that the prosecutors do not “go after” anyone, in particular; Macomb Prosecutors zealously go after all cases. Although it may seem like this is a good thing for Macomb County residents, the downside is tragic. Innocent people are sometimes wrongfully charged or overcharged, and the Macomb County Prosecutor is very reluctant to consider any possibility that a charge may be incorrect, a mistake, or inappropriate. An attorney must be tough, knowledgable, respected, and tenacious to persuade the prosecutor to consider an extraordinary plea bargain or sentence agreement in Macomb County.
We believe that building relationships and establishing an excellent reputation with Macomb County judges, Macomb County prosecutors, and court staff help us achieve the best possible results for our clients. Through many years of aggressive and successful Macomb criminal defense work, we have built reputations as highly successful, tireless, zealous, and effective Macomb County criminal defense lawyers. Our reputation and prior success in the Macomb County Circuit Court and the various Macomb County District Courts have allowed us to achieve results for clients that many of the best Macomb County criminal attorneys would not have been able to achieve.
