Experienced Criminal Defense Attorney

Dedicated to Defending the Wrongly Accused

Michigan Murder Defense Lawyer

The Law Firm of Frank Stanley has handled high profile, complex murder trials as well as allegations of murder, rape, kidnapping, armed robbery, car jacking, attempted murder, armed house invasion, and burglary.

No other case can compare to representation of a client charged with murder, manslaughter, kidnapping, rape, armed robbery, burglary or negligent homicide. These various categories of violent crimes, along with drug crimes are viewed by society as the most severe and as a result those accused of such crimes face devastating consequences. Handling violent crime cases requires the ability to separate the emotional issues from the factual and legal issues and the ability to communicate with the prosecutor, the victim's family and the client's family. This requires a skilled attorney experienced in handling these types of cases. A detailed analysis of the laws and application of them to the facts is a must-no two violent crime cases are alike.

Knowledge of the defenses to violent crimes and critical thinking are required. Experience with forensic science, investigation resources, research ability, understanding of sentencing structure (life, life without parole and death), jury research and rapport, and presentation are all necessary to try a violent crime to a jury in an effective manner.

Frank Stanley is an extremely respected and skilled felony defense attorney with a track record of successfully defending violent crime cases throughout Michigan and the country. He has the legal team to fully investigate the charges against you and as a result of this team effort, his firm has a history of success in this complex area of criminal defense.
