Solomon M. Radner specializes in criminal defense. Solomon received national recognition for his work in the field of criminal law when he was selected to be a member of the ABA White Collar Crimes Committee from 2008 until 2010. As such, he traveled the country to participate in conferences and seminars, which helped shape ABA policy.
Solomon has worked for judges while they presided over criminal proceedings. He has also worked for defense attorneys in criminal proceedings, and worked as a criminal justice academic while he was a member of the ABA White Collar Crimes Committee.
While working at the Federal Public Defenders in Detroit, he gained experience in federal criminal defense, including many white-collar crimes. Notably, Solomon assisted with the editing of a book on white-collar crimes while working for the Federal Public Defenders.
Solomon then went on to gain experience in state criminal defense while working for the Legal Aid and Defense public defenders in Detroit, during which time he also gained significant courtroom experience. Solomon has spent hundreds of hours in the courtroom during oral arguments, examinations, cross-examinations, arraignments, preliminary examinations, and trials.
Solomon strongly believes that there is a personal obligation to give back to the community in any way possible, and Solomon does a large amount of volunteer work. Solomon’s pro bono work includes volunteering for the Michigan Innocence Clinic, which operates out of the University of Michigan Law School.
The Michigan Innocence Clinic works to exonerate falsely convicted criminal defendants, who are doing hard time for crimes they did not commit. What is extremely unique about this particular clinic is that it reviews convictions for which there is no DNA evidence to support a finding of innocence.
