As part of the "hippie law experience", I aggressively defend your rights as well as provide  theraputic advice and direction to those in need. Let me help you with all your legal troubles and help guide you towards the light. Transcend the law.

I take a holistic approach to the practice of law.  Getting to know clients, and not just their cases, helps clients to get through their difficult legal matters as well as assist in the preparation for any legal proceedings.  Most people are not seeking an attorney to represent them when times are good.  Understanding this, it is important to not only know my clients on a more personal level, but to understand them as it relates to their case.  My diverse background and experience is an asset in representing clients in Michigan courts.  My background in public safety (law enforcement and EMS) serves as a foundation to all legal matters.. Criminal Defense:  As a former police officer, I have a unique view of a case regarding the investigation, procedure, decisions made, and various evidentiary issues.  I have vast training in response and investigation.  For example, I am certified in Data Master (Breathalyzer) tests, Preliminary Breath Tests (road breath test), Standardized Field Sobriety Testing (SFST), Domestic Violence response and intervention, narcotic issues, motor vehicle theft, and traffic RADAR.  In addition, I have experience regarding all types of assault, homicides, attempted homicides, criminal sexual conduct, and property crimes.  I have literally handled everything from the traffic ticket up to a homicide.   Having this experience gives me in a unique circumstance in reinvestigating a case and into cross-examination at trial.  During a recent trial, during cross-examination of police witnesses, I demonstrated the Standard Field Sobriety Tests (SFST) for the jury to reveal the inadequacies of the investigation.  This ultimately lead to a Not-Guilty verdict for Operating While Intoxicated even though the breathalyzer indicated a .18 blood alcohol level.. Family Law:  During law school, I was a volunteer student attorney for two semesters.  This position allowed me to practice law in the Oakland County Family Court while representing those persons who did not have the financial means to afford representation.  My experiences throughout that role, and as a police officer dealing with various family law issues, have really benefited clients.  Understandably, during family cases, emotions are volatile.  As a trained mediator, I take an approach to have an open discussion and ongoing dialogue to assist clients in resolving their difficult family matter as amicable as possible.  On the other hand, sometimes a resolution is not within reach.  In these cases, I use aggressive techniques available to prevail.. Trial Lawyer's College:  In addition, I have trained at the Gerry Spence Trial Lawyer's College in Dubois, Wyoming.  I have completed the criminal defense, "Defense of the Damned" program as well as more focused programs by using the Trial Lawyer's College method to jury selection, direct examination, cross-examination, and closing argument.  One of my greatest honors was to have the time to train personally with Gerry Spence while in Wyoming.. I have lived in Ferndale, Michigan for almost my entire life.   I participated in many campaigns both politically and related to ballot issues to improve the community.  My parents and sisters all still reside in the area.  While I do not have any children myself, I enjoy being an uncle to my nieces and nephews.  In my free time, I enjoy being a student pilot and attending seminars both related and not related to the practice of law.  I am currently attending classes at Wayne State University completing a Master of Public Administration degree.

I have assisted a broad range of clients with intellectual property and entertainment matters, commercial litigation, labor and employment litigation and arbitration, and corporate transactional matters.. My primary practice area is in intellectual property law, including domestic and international trademark clearance, prosecution, enforcement, policing, licensing, and litigation, with particular emphasis on protecting clients’ brands on the Internet, including domain name portfolio strategy, acquisition, management and enforcement, social media positioning and actions under the Uniform Domain Name Dispute Resolution Policy.  I have extensive prosecution and administrative litigation experience before the United States Patent and Trademark Office and the Trademark Trial and Appeal Board.

I graduated from the Detroit Mercy School of Law, where I received the CALI Award, Book Award for Small Firm Practice and also earned the Detroit Mercy School of Law Dean’s Scholarship..

I am an Attorney/CPA with a Masters in Taxation. I handle most commercial matters including transactions of businesses, real estate and some commercial litigation cases with a concentration in stockbroker misconduct cases (securities litigation).. When you trust your hard-earned savings to a stockbroker, you expect to work with a professional who represents your best interests at all times. But what happens when a stockbroker puts his own financial interests ahead of yours, putting your life savings at risk? Victims of stockbroker misconduct and fraud deserve strong and effective representation. Peter C. Rageas is a board-certified arbitrator for the Financial Insustry Reulatory Authority (FINRA).

I am a smart attorney.  I do the reading and the research for every case.  I look for resolution before confrontation.  My client and I map out the case strategy together.. Clients often look for aggressive defense attorneys - and this is an important quality.  (I put it in my website URL!)  But aggression without an intelligent plan just leads to trouble.. Visit my website.  Check out some of the published appellate opinions in my cases.
