While Criminal Sexual Conduct and other felony and misdemeanor assaultive charges are some of the most difficult criminal charges to defend against in Michigan, they can also be some of the most promising for the right attorney. It is very common that there will be significant, sometimes outcome-determinative differences between your version of the events and your accuser's version of the events. Fighting these charges is not like fighting a drunk driving charge, where a special machine tells the Judge or Jury, with some degree of scientific reliability, whether you are guilty or not. In our cases, the key witnesses are humans, not machines; there really are issues worth fighting about!
