Michigan Empathy Defense | Criminal Defense in Ann Arbor and Plymouth, MI (h1)
Michigan Empathy Defense maintains offices at 2723 S State St, Ann Arbor, MI 48104 and 472 Starkweather St, Plymouth, MI 48170, serving clients throughout Wayne, Oakland, Washtenaw, and Macomb Counties. The firm is led by attorney Jonathan Paul, a former New York City and Michigan prosecutor with more than a decade of criminal defense experience, and can be reached at 248-924-9458. The name reflects the firm’s stated philosophy that clients should be “judged on more than the 4-corners of the police report.”
The practice handles retail fraud and shoplifting, drunk driving and DUI charges, domestic violence and assault allegations, probation violations, embezzlement, drug offenses, resisting arrest, leaving the scene of an accident, reckless and careless driving, and malicious destruction of property. Rather than treating each charge as an isolated event, the firm builds its strategy around understanding the circumstances that led to an incident, using that context to negotiate with prosecutors and present a fuller picture of the client to the court.
Paul’s dual perspective as both a former prosecutor and current defense attorney gives Michigan Empathy Defense particular credibility with local courts, and the firm has built a track record reflected in client reviews on Avvo, reinforcing its reputation as an attentive, strategy-driven option for those facing charges across southeastern Michigan.
