As a police officer for 16 years and then an assistant prosecuting attorney for Jasper County for five years, I have seen far too many people make critical mistakes when they are arrested and charged. Most people are simply unaware of their rights and do not realize how important it is to have a lawyer's counsel throughout the process.

I am Joplin criminal defense attorney Michael L. Roberts. With my experience as a police officer and prosecutor, I know both sides of the criminal justice system. Most importantly, I know how to uncover weaknesses in the prosecution's case. I provide strategic representation based on the unique facts of each case. Whether your case is best resolved through negotiation or litigation, you can rely on my experience and knowledge.

Please contact The Law Office of Michael L. Roberts, LLC, today for a free consultation.

I represent Missouri adults as well as people from other states who are charged with crimes in Missouri. My criminal defense practice includes defense against a wide range of crimes, from violations to misdemeanors and felonies such as:

• DWI/DUI offenses
• Traffic violations
• Drug charges
• Theft crimes
• Weapons crimes

When we discuss your case, I will thoroughly explain all of your options as well as the pros and cons of each. I have the experience to evaluate your case from the perspectives of law enforcement, the prosecution and as your defense attorney. If there are flaws in the case against you, I will expose them. If going to trial is your best chance, I will litigate vigorously. No matter what charge you face, I will work hard to protect your rights and your freedom.
