i was stupid the one day and on my way home decided to harass a streetwalker in detroit michigan, never offer her any money, or a ride but i got busted anyway for offer to engage by undercover detroit police… i was worried after looking on this lawyers blog about the mandatory jail time if convicted, so somewhat skeptical how accurate of success these posts were i decided to try calling Peter Torrice at Canu Torrice Law firm…i am a believer now…he used his connections to skip pretrial and beat my case at trial and i didn’t even have to put up bond yes it cost me 1500 but that was worth it for piece of mind…the cop never showed up so it was dismissed…so i got lucky on both sides, choosing the right lawyer and a nice judge…i thank you very much Peter Torrice from & Torrice, PLLC / Canu Torrice Law!!!
i am down 3k for my stupidity but at least its not on my record, i didn’t go to jail nor lose my job

Like most of our clients, may feel this type of charge is simply a money making scheme for the City of Detroit and Detroit Police because they charge with this Offer to Engage a Prostitute crime, take your car, make you spend $900.00 or more to buy your car back from forfeiture, then you face MANDATORY jail time if you are convicted. Many people who go down to that Detroit Court without a knowledgable criminal defense attorney find themselves scared, confused and potentially in jail for a long time.
The Michigan criminal defense lawyers at Canu Torrice Law have had 3 different Offer to Engage cases DISMISSED in the past week alone. As you said, the Detroit cops took you for about $3k by the time it was all said and done, but the attorneys at Canu Torrice Law were there to help so this sex crime didn’t go on your criminal history record and so your could save your job.
