About

My name is Richard Daniel Small. In 2006, I completed my undergraduate studies at the University of Michigan; where I received a Bachelor of Arts degree in History. My background in History helped build a solid foundation in regards to critical analysis, and research and writing. This foundation has carried over into all aspects of my legal profession. After my undergraduate studies, I attended Wayne State University Law School in the City of Detroit. I received my Juris Doctorate from Wayne Law in 2011.  While attending Wayne I was a member of the Black Law School Association, and the Hispanic Law School Association. In addition to my memberships, I also worked at the Federal Defenders Office, Eastern District of Michigan, in Detroit. While there I was privileged to do both research and writing on multiple criminal matters, including the Hutaree Militia case. The Hutaree is a Midwest militia that the FBI attempted to prosecute for an alleged plan for a violent revolt. Members were facing numerous charges, amounting to the possibility of life in prison. From our research and critical analysis, seven Hutaree members were acquitted, and property seized was returned to their owners.I am a long time resident of Oakland County, and consider myself to be a true Michigander. I began elementary school in Southfield, moved to West Bloomfield in 3rd grade, and for the rest of my adolescent’s lived in West Bloomfield. I am married, and currently live in Farmington Hills. We recenetly were blessed to have our first child; Greyson Alexander Small. We are also proud owners of an English Bulldog. I am Licensed to practice in the State of Michigan, and am a member of the following organizations: The Michigan Bar Association, The American Bar Association, and The Oakland County Bar Association. I am the founder of Small Law PLLC. For your legal matters please contact Small Law PLLC. Remember that I am also fluent in Spanish.

I would highly recommend Richard if you find yourself needing a lawyer. I was facing some tough charges that could of really jeopardize and derailed my career. Richard was able to get my charges reduced and favorable ruling. He also worked with my financial situation to make sure I did not walk into court alone or with someone unqualified. Richard will forever be my first call and recommendation whenever legal services are needed.

I was in a bad car accident, that wasn’t my fault. I ended up with the ticket. I contacted Richard Small and he sorted everything out. I went to court, Richard was on time. He knew all the right things to say and told me how to approach the situation. He was able to bring the ticket down to something less, that wouldn’t show up on my record. I would strongly recommend this lawyer to anyone. He knows what he’s doing and he knows what’s best for his client.

Answered our questions from us, out of state relatives to a one time misdemeanor inmate. He was helpful didn’t look for money. Just on his free help we were on board w him 200%. If u don’t want to be just another inmate number and your inmate family member not watched out for in the system then choose another lawyer Bc Richard is the best at what he does . Being a SMALL practice is brilliant Bc u get the guy himself not a 1-800 number to one of 50 branches never able to treacherous the guy taking your $. This guy cares: he’s no ambulance chaser. He has morals and integrity. That’s very unique in a corrupt field at times. Hire him I risked my relatives life on him. Not sorry. Never got to hiring Bc judge let him free. Unfortunately Bc Richard wanted treatment ordered to save my bro, he gave a damn

Excellence is rare yet that is exactly what I found with my attorney, Richard D. Small. During our professional relationship, I found Mr. Small to be diligent in pursuing a positive outcome "for me". In doing so, Mr. Small used both intelligence and kindness to create a rapport that allowed me to feel comfortable while expressing my pain. I would recommend Mr. Small to anyone seeking excellent attorney representation.

Richard D Smalls is very helpful guy. I had a lot of problems going on through my life he help me my way out. Drivers license suspended for two years he talk to attorneys to reduce prices for me ask l for a different charges and tries his best to beat any case. I have went to court three times and been charged with driving without license. all cases have been reduced and charged with something that won't show up on my record. If I haven't ran into Richard I wouldn't be where I am today.

Richard took my nephew case a year ago and my nephew was facing armed robbery charges. Richard did everything that he could to make sure my nephew didn't do any jail time... Thankfully the charges was dropped! He was honest, fair and very trusting! My family and I are very thankful for all his hard work. If anyone needs an extraordinary lawyer, he is the perfect choice!
