Domestic Violence Defense for Arab families in Dearborn
The 19th District Court in Dearborn handles misdemeanors and arraignments, while Wayne County Circuit Court processes felonies. Arab Americans in Dearborn have reported racial profiling concerns, particularly post-9/11. DUI enforcement on Michigan Avenue, Ford Road, and along the Southfield Freeway is heavy, and Michigan's Super Drunk Law (BAC of 0.17+) carries enhanced penalties including mandatory ignition interlock. For non-citizen Arab residents—including green card holders and visa holders—any criminal conviction can trigger removal proceedings, making Arabic-speaking defense attorneys who understand both Michigan criminal law and federal immigration consequences essential.

Client review
“Got pulled over after a wedding. Failed the breathalyzer. I was sure my life was over. My lawyer got the charge reduced to impaired driving, no jail time, kept my record clean enough to keep my CDL. He saved my livelihood.”

Client review
“My wife and I had an argument. Neighbors called police. I got arrested and charged even though I never touched her. She told the police that at the scene but they arrested me anyway. My lawyer got the charges dismissed in three weeks. He also helped me understand my rights if something like that happens again.”
Tony K.

Client review
“University of Michigan campus police found pills in my car during a routine traffic stop. Felony charge that could have ended my engineering career before it started. My attorney got it reduced to a misdemeanor through a plea agreement and I completed a diversion program. Record expunged last spring.”
