Michael secured court orders restoring his clients’ Second Amendment right to own, use, and possess firearms. In the words of one of his clients:

There is not a day that goes by that I'm not grateful for your help. I carry every day. My wife and kids are in the process of getting training to conceal carry. They would not have felt comfortable doing that if I did not have my rights restored.

Whether you have been cited for a traffic violation in a mayor’s court or you would like your right to bear arms restored, Michael and the lawyers at Cohen Todd Criminal Defense may be able to help. You can reach Michael at any time necessary on 513-333-5230.
