Profile
Michigan’s Premier DUI and Criminal Defense Firm
Maze Legal PLC, led by the nationally recognized attorney William J. Maze, is a top-tier criminal defense firm located in the historic Ford Building in downtown Detroit. While the firm handles a broad range of criminal matters, it is widely acclaimed for its dominance in DUI/OWI Defense. William Maze is not just an attorney; he is a legal technician who understands the science of breath and blood testing better than most expert witnesses. With a reputation for challenging every piece of evidence-from the traffic stop to the chemical test results-Maze Legal PLC is the go-to firm for drivers who cannot afford to lose their license or their freedom.
Mastering the Science of Defense
What sets Maze Legal apart is their deep understanding of the scientific principles underlying drunk driving charges. William Maze has undergone the same training as police officers in Standardized Field Sobriety Testing (SFST) and is a certified operator of the DataMaster breath test machine. This technical expertise allows the firm to dismantle the prosecution’s case by exposing flaws in:
- Breathalyzer Calibration: Identifying errors in the maintenance and operation of breath testing devices.
- Blood Testing Procedures: Uncovering contamination or chain-of-custody issues in forensic labs.
- Field Sobriety Tests: demonstrating how non-standardized administration leads to false arrests.
A Leader in the Legal Community
William Maze’s leadership extends beyond the courtroom. He has served as the President of the Criminal Defense Attorneys of Michigan (CDAM) and is a frequent lecturer on DUI defense strategies. His peers recognize him as an authority in the field, often calling on him for advice on complex evidentiary issues. This level of respect within the legal community translates to credibility in the courtroom, where judges and prosecutors know that a motion filed by Maze Legal is backed by rigorous legal research and irrefutable facts.
Fighting for Your Future
Beyond DUI, Maze Legal PLC aggressively defends clients against a variety of criminal charges, including drug possession, asset forfeiture, and traffic violations. The firm is also a champion for transparency, frequently using the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) to hold government agencies accountable and obtain crucial evidence for their clients. Whether you are a commercial driver facing a career-ending violation or a professional fighting to protect your reputation, Maze Legal PLC offers the tenacity and expertise needed to secure the best possible outcome. 🚔
