Navigating Washtenaw County's Legal Maze: Local Attorney Emphasizes the Power of Experience
Michimich.com/10299757

ANN ARBOR, Mich. - Michimich -- With over a dozen police agencies, multiple district courts, and a diverse jury pool, Washtenaw County's criminal justice system is one of the most complex in Michigan. Local attorney Dan Geherin, a lifelong resident and seasoned criminal defense lawyer, is shedding light on why familiarity with this unique system is essential for legal success.

"Every judge, every prosecutor, every courtroom in Washtenaw County operates a little differently," Geherin explains. "Understanding those differences isn't just helpful—it's critical."

The county's specialized programs—like mental health, sobriety, and veterans courts—offer important alternatives to jail time but are often overlooked by outsiders. In addition, Washtenaw's warrant and arrest procedures can be more aggressive than those in surrounding counties.

Geherin, who grew up in Ypsilanti and now practices primarily in Ann Arbor, says he often advises out-of-county attorneys on how to work effectively within the local system. "There's no substitute for knowing the personalities, the unwritten rules, and the community values that shape how justice is served here."
