Firm Information
Overview
SBBL Law is devoted to criminal defense in state courts throughout Michigan, Indiana, Ohio and Federal Courts Nationwide. We serve as a fierce and empathetic barrier between our clients and the criminal justice system - expertly navigating, communicating, and defending. With discretion and an unusually high success rate, we partner with our clients to face the overwhelming power of the government.
Our legal team is led by former federal prosecutors, FBI agents, and Army JAGs with a deep understanding of the criminal justice system. In past positions, our partners spent years building cases for the federal government and, as a result, understand how to defend our clients effectively by taking government investigations apart. Knowing the system from the inside out allows us to understand and dissect the investigation process along the way. We pride ourselves on strategizing each case’s swift and successful resolution, whether by negotiating a favorable plea agreement, challenging an illegal search and seizure, or taking the case to trial.
Our firm also specializes in serving as attorney advisors to students, faculty, and staff involved in Title IX investigations and hearings nationwide. Additionally, we have also gained national attention as the go-to law enforcement officer defense firm in Michigan for police officers accused of misconduct.
The firm's entire leadership team shares a common background of building cases for the federal government in our past careers, allowing us to bring an unrivaled collective level of expertise to our work defending clients.
Our firm serves individuals and corporations around the country, blending national-caliber qualifications and expertise with Midwestern values rooted in service, empathy, and integrity. Our offices are located in Grand Rapids and Fremont, Michigan.
