Criminal Law

Criminal charges are particularly difficult for clients.  As most individuals have never been in any serious trouble, clients who face criminal charges need an attorney who can advise them competently based on experience.  Mr. Jernigan has extensive experience in all of the circuit courts and virtually all of the district courts in the Tri County area, as well as Washtenaw and Livingston Counties. 

Charges such as assault, drug possession, DUI, and other driving violations can carry serious consequences, including loss of driving privileges, extensive and expensive probationary periods, and incarceration.  Clients need and deserve an attorney who has experience and the ability to navigate what can be a very complicated court system.
