College Student Defense Attorney in Ann Arbor

Dedicated Criminal Defense for Students

For many people, college is the first time they are away from home or able to make their own decisions. Unfortunately, this may lead to mistakes or misunderstandings that involve an arrest or legal charges. While a criminal offense may seem like the end of the road or a major roadblock for your child's future, it doesn't have to be.

As an experienced and respected Ann Arbor college student criminal defense lawyer, I am committed to protecting your child's rights. At my firm, Susan Longsworth, PLC, I have earned a reputation for my knowledge of the law and my tenacious defense strategies.

Common Charges for College Students

The consequences for a college student who is arrested and convicted of a crime can weigh heavily on their future. A student could be expelled from school on top of the criminal penalties they face.
