FOIA

On June 7, 2018, the Michigan Court of Appeals handed down a FOIA victory, reversing the Monroe County Circuit Court in the case of Radford v Monroe County. 

My client sought videos and other materials from the Monroe County Sheriff's department on a misdemeanor charge. Monroe County denied the FOIA. We settled the criminal case but proceeded with a civil lawsuit under FOIA.

It's a dirty little secret, but I have a strong background in civil litigation and still take the occasional case.  The other lawyers I work with tend to handle the family law cases, divorces, personal injury, etc., but I used to handle the big breach of contract claims involving subcontractors to the automotive industry where hundreds of pages of interrogatories and endless days of depositions are commonplace.
