Defending the Accused in West Michigan.
Professional Reliable & Effective Representation at
Affordable Rates.
It is absolutely critical to retain the services of an experienced, aggressive,
and affordable Michigan criminal defense lawyer as soon as possible to protect your rights. Your statements and actions immediately after an arrest or during the early stages of a criminal investigation can have a tremendous impact on the outcome of your case.
Don't go it alone!
The state has vast resources and unlimited help from police and law
enforcement. Since you do not know the rules
you will be outplayed. Shop
around and find a criminal defense lawyer that you feel good about, someone
who cares about you as a person and realizes you are not just another case
or just another face.
Abraham Lincoln once remarked that a person who represents
himself "has a fool for a client." This is strong language -- yet true. Even
attorneys immediately hire an experienced lawyer to represent them in a jam.
So should you.

his clients and can guide you through each step of your case, ensuring your rights are protected by raising effective defenses,
timely filing motions, and protecting your Constitutional rights. You can trust that we will aggressively defend your rights in and out of court and maximize your chances of acquittal.
West Michigan Criminal Defense Attorney Bruce Alan Block's practice includes:
-
Criminal Defense for all Felonies and Misdemeanors.
Any criminal conviction can have a lasting impact on your life, your
freedom, and that of your family. We are experienced and can provide you
with a calculated defense to these crimes, including a defense to a
violation of a personal protection order (PPO). You need a criminal lawyer
to defend you and your freedom.
-
Drunk Driving (DUI/OWI) / Traffic Violations. A conviction for drunk driving DUI or any other traffic violation can have a lasting impact on your life
and seriously affect your driver’s license, insurance rates, finances, and freedom. We have the experience to
provide you with a skilled dui defense and obtain the best results possible. See our DUI / Traffic Violations page for additional information.
-
Sex Crimes. Perhaps as with no other
crime, an allegation of sexual abuse has the potential to completely
ruin your life. The system presumes your guilt, as it is almost
impossible to disprove something that never happened. The stakes are
high, as the justice system is harsh on convicted sex offenders.
See our Sex Offenses page
for additional information.
-
Drug Crimes. We provide experienced representation
and drug defense to those accused of drug crimes, including drug possession, distribution, manufacturing, and
possession with intent to deliver marijuana, meth, cocaine, heroin, crack,
ecstasy, and other illegal drugs and controlled substances. See our
Michigan Medical
Marijuana Page or our Drug
Offense page. We are experienced and can provide you with a
knowledgeable marijuana defense.
-
Violent Crimes. Violent crimes carry severe penalties and can have a detrimental impact on your life, including employment prospects. We provide comprehensive defense for those accused of
violent crimes, including home invasion, burglary, theft, felonious
assault, murder, and homicide. You can trust in our skill and years
of experience to mount an effective defense.
-
Felonies. Felonies are criminal offenses punishable by at least one year of prison, including arson,
fleeing and eluding, weapons charge, armed robbery, car jacking, kidnapping, sex offenses, felon in possession of firearm, home invasion,
and most illegal drug crimes. Felonies pose the greatest risk to your freedom, as they usually result in prison terms. You need an experienced West Michigan criminal defense attorney
to provide you with a felony defense.
-
Misdemeanors. Misdemeanors are lesser crimes punishable by
up to a year in jail, and include offenses such as drunk
boating, driving suspended
(DWLS), theft, retail fraud,
indecent exposure, drunk driving - DUI, malicious destruction of property
(MDOP), disorderly conduct,
domestic violence, trespass, resisting arrest,
solicitation of an immoral act, prostitution, weapons charges, minor
in possession (MIP), and
probation violations. You need a misdemeanor defense attorney to
help you.
-
Civil Infraction. Speeding
tickets, many traffic violations, noise infractions, and other
offenses the state does not consider criminal. These can be paid at
the front counter of the local court without seeing a judge. Don't
make the mistake of paying your ticket without first consulting a
lawyer. Many times the original traffic ticket can be reduced to a
lesser offense with less points and less impact on your driving
record and insurance rates.
-
Civil Litigation. These are civil lawsuits
for money damages, and typically result from a breach of contract,
construction lien, personal injury from car accidents or product
liability, mechanics lien, cancellation of your business line of
credit, and more. See our
Civil Litigation page for more information.
A criminal conviction can forever change your
life.
