I’m very grateful I contacted Attorney Joseph Simon while our family was in the middle of a crisis we ultimately learned was an attempted scam. Joe quickly discovered that a “case number” given to us by a person impersonating a police officer who said he’d arrested a family member who’d supposedly caused an accident and was injured, and people impersonating the public defender’s office that wanted us to pay bail, was not a number used by police or the court system. Joe was able to confirm our family member was not in the legal “system.” He suggested we reach out to our family member (who we assumed no longer had a phone) and within a short time we learned our family member was safe and at work. In the midst of our crisis, Joe provided valuable counsel that allowed us to navigate this terrible event. We highly suggest your family have a “safe word” to be used in the event of an emergency, so you can be confident you’re actually speaking with your loved one.There are sophisticated, bad actors out there. If you need help on a criminal matter in Washtenaw County or other nearby counties in Michigan, call Joseph Simon.
