Don’t treat a misdemeanor lightly
In Michigan, misdemeanors are generally punishable by up to 93 days or up to one year in county jail, plus fines, costs, and probation. Even when there’s no jail time, a conviction shows up on background checks and can affect your job, your housing, your immigration status, and your driver’s license.
Many people plead guilty at their first court date because they think it’s the fastest way out. It’s often the most expensive mistake they make. An attorney can often get charges dismissed, reduced, or resolved in a way that keeps your record clean.

Frequently asked questions
Will I go to jail for a misdemeanor?
Many first-time misdemeanors end without jail, but it depends on the charge, the court, and your record. Having an attorney makes a real difference.
Do I have to go to court?
For most misdemeanors you’ll have at least one court date. In some courts, we can handle parts of the case without you there.
Can a misdemeanor be expunged?
Yes. Many misdemeanors can be set aside after a waiting period, and some are cleared automatically.
I already pleaded guilty. Is it too late?
Not always. Call us. Depending on timing, there may still be options before sentencing.
