Michigan Sex Crimes Defense
Never Speak to the Police Without Consulting Us First
Since 1999 Grabel & Associates has provided aggressive defense of sex crimes throughout the state of Michigan. We handle sex crime appeals as well as defense of all types of criminal charges and driver’s license restoration. We offer free consultations 24/7/365 - contact our experienced attorneys and William Weise today. Have you been charged with any sex crime offense? It is crucial you contact a Michigan sex crimes attorney now. Many individuals who are contacted by the police about a sex offense make the mistake of thinking that the police are there to help them, or that if they fully cooperate, the allegations will go away. Unfortunately, nothing could be further from the truth. The police are not there to be your friend. They have been known to lie in hopes of getting you to make a statement that can be misconstrued and later used against you in a court of law. In many instances, the police have already formulated an opinion that a suspect is guilty before a thorough investigation has even been conducted. To ensure that your rights are fully protected, you need an aggressive criminal defense firm that specializes in sex crime cases and knows how to deal with police officers that are trying to make a name for themselves. Facing Allegations of a Sex Crime in Michigan The Michigan sex crimes attorneys at Grabel & Associates have saved the lives of hundreds of individuals accused of and charged with sex offenses throughout the state. Grabel & Associates is one of the very few law firms in Michigan that devotes its entire practice to aggressive criminal defense. Before you decide to put your life in the hands of a "jack of all trades" attorney or law firm that claims to know how to handle sex crime offenses, contact the law firm that has over a hundred years of combined experience in defending and winning criminal cases throughout the entire state of Michigan. Being convicted of a sex offense in Michigan means more than just a fine and doing community service. A sex offense conviction can result in a lengthy prison sentence and registration on the Michigan Public Sex Offender Registry (PSOR) for life. Even the mere accusation of sexual misconduct can severely damage an individual's standing in the community and may adversely affect his or her employment status and home life. Sexual misconduct accusations can be made by anyone regardless of whether any physical evidence exists and are often pursued by overzealous prosecutors. The sex offense lawyers at Grabel & Associates have the experience and proven track record in defending individuals being investigated or charged with sex offenses and have built a well-earned statewide reputation for high quality criminal defense in all areas of Michigan. Our defense team is not afraid to confront local judges and prosecutors in our aggressive defense to protect our clients' rights and secure their freedom. Our Firm's Philosophy On Defending And Winning Sex Crime Cases Because the laws dealing with sex crime offenses are complex, the defense of these charges is highly specialized and must be handled by a law firm that uses the most innovative and creative defense strategies to fight to win a case and protect its clients. Sex offense cases in Michigan are won by thorough preparation, the correct use of forensic experts, evidence analysis, and the skill and experience of a strong criminal defense team. Grabel & Associates uses the most respected experts nationwide in such scientific fields as polygraph analysis, DNA analysis, computer forensics, rape trauma analysis, and child forensic protocols. The firm also uses the services of a retired FBI agent as a case investigator. This total client commitment is unsurpassed in obtaining exceptional case results when a client's life and freedom are at stake. Grabel & Associates is the sex crime defense firm to contact.

Representation Throughout Michigan
Personal Injury Automobile accidents are a subset of a class of cases we handle, which in law school are called negligence cases. However, in everyday speak we call these accident cases. They involve a person being injured and someone else having negligently caused those injuries. Money is collected on these cases based upon the degree of physical injuries caused initially and residually (long term), the pain and suffering, and economic losses like the inability to be able to go to work or the need to hire others to do things for you as directly related to the accident. As your attorney, we hire experts to prove all of these points. Social Security Disability Social security cases fall into two classes: social security disability (SSD); and social security income (SSI). Broadly speaking SSD is applied for when you have a work history and you can no longer do any form of meaningful work because of an injury or illness. SSI is applied for when you have an injury or illness and can not work and satisfy the requirement of essentially being impoverished which translates at the time this writing to having total assets less than $3,500.00. A good example, though horrible in fact, is a child born without any eyesight will qualify for SSI.
