About:
My practice focuses on criminal defense including misdemeanors and felonies in both the trial and appellant courts. He has a strong interest in complex constitutional law issues and their applicability in the criminal justice system. I am an active member of the Michigan Appellate Assigned Counsel System commonly known as the MAACS; an organization responsibly for nearly 84% of all assigned criminal appeals cases in Michigan. My practice also includes a strong emphasis in family and estate law including: parent’s rights, divorce litigation, custody, parenting time, child support, guardianships, estate planning, probate litigation and juvenile matters. I am a strong family man and have been happily married for over 15 years and have four children of my own. I belief that in order to be a good family and estate law attorney one needs to have a family of their own to better understand the issues and complexity of being a parent and a spouse and son or daughter with aging parents and loved ones. As I approach my first decade in the practice of law I look forward to bringing my personal and professional experience to your case and your needs.

"No calls back and no action taken and I have the easiest case to get dropped. Not happy. If they pick up the phone, it a woman at the house taking care of kids, not at the office, very worrying. I asked to drop my legal representation in writing with no reply."

"Mr. John Lee, Ingham County Public Defender If a public defender’s job is to council and defend the unrepresented and do it to the same professional standards as a hired attorney then I feel Mr. Lee did his job, he defended and prevailed. He counseled us with the best legal strategy to accomplish what we hoped for, was very responsive to emails, always on time and prepared for court, polite, courteous, and efficient. We could not have asked for better legal counsel than the Ingham County Public Defender’s office."
