About John Melton

As an attorney who has received a DistinguishedSM Peer Review Rating from Martindale-Hubbell®, in recognition of my work from colleagues in my field, you can be confident that I have the knowledge and experience required to guide you toward a favorable outcome.

Clients choose me because I am:
Accomplished — Since 1997, I have aggressively defended people in Michigan accused of crimes, from misdemeanors to murder cases to high-profile narcotics and embezzlement cases. Whether your case involves one court appearance or months or years of work, I dedicate myself to improving your situation.
Knowledgeable — My reputation in the community and my deep knowledge of criminal law and the local courts help me protect your rights while we focus on your case.
Straightforward — I provide the attention you deserve as I work to uncover all the facts of your case and challenge the evidence against you. When you hire me, you can expect to receive prompt and clear answers to all of your questions.
Protecting your rights is my goal. In criminal law, prompt action is required. The sooner you contact me, the sooner I can begin to seek a favorable outcome for your situation.
