  • Criminal sexual conduct (CSC)
  • Drug trafficking or manufacturing
  • Felony OWI (3rd offense)
  • Embezzlement over $1,000
  • Weapons charges
  • Home invasion or burglary
  • Homicide or attempted murder

If you’re charged with any felony in Pinckney, early legal help can make a major difference in your case.
