Our college student client was charged with assault with intent to do great bodily harm, less than murder, in the 54B district court, East Lansing. As soon as charges were issued, they contacted Tiffany DeBruin and she went to work for the client. She reviewed the police report and video evidence, met with the client to understand what happened, and reached out to counsel for the co-defendant in the case. Attorney DeBruin formulated a strategy to fight the case and vigorously advocated for her client with the prosecutor, pointing out the many weaknesses in the case and inconsistencies in witness statements. Prior to the probable cause conference the prosecutor dismissed the charges and Attorney DeBruin was able to tell the client they could move on with their lives without having to go through the court process!
