For 30 years, Michael Levinsohn has been defending the unjustly accused of central and Southern California. After being a Deputy Public Defender for two years, Michael became a Private Criminal Defense Attorney in 1992. His litigation skills in the courtroom are legendary—for two consecutive years, he was nominated a Top 100 Trial Lawyer. But what really sets Michael apart as a criminal defense attorney is his loyalty and unflinching dedication to defending his clients.

Michael has defended clients in over 60 jury trials, and won well over 50 percent of them, including trials for rape, sex assault, domestic violence, narcotics sales, marijuana sales, money laundering, theft, DUI, assault, and battery. He has also represented hundreds of marijuana growers, transporters, and dispensary owners here in California. While Michael defends individuals in all types of criminal cases in both California state and federal court, he specializes in high-stakes cases that involve serious felonies.
