Walter J. Czechowski

I graduated with a Bachelor of Science Degree from Wayne State University, With Honors, in 1973. I then began my legal career and met my current partner at Detroit College of Law (now Michigan State School of Law) in 1973, where i graduated in the top 10% of my class in 1976, with a Juris Doctor Degree, Cum Laude.  I am a founding partner in the law firm of Bieber & Czechowski, PLLC, where I specialize in Probate and Estate Planning, Social Security and Divorce.

I am one of the few attorneys in Macomb County that has actually handled jury trials pertaining to contested Trust and Will matters. I have represented hundreds of clients in matters pertaining to Estates, Will and Trust Contests throughout the State of Michigan. I have collected millions of dollars for clients. I recently litigated and settled a trust contest in excess of $3,000,000.00.

I am often appointed by the Probate Courts as a Guardian Ad Litem or Attorney on disputed matters. I am often called upon to sit as a Case Evaluator, Mediator and Facilitator for both District and Circuit Courts in Oakland and Macomb Counties. I have also received referrals from attorneys throughout the State of Michigan, as well as Illinois, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Texas, Florida, California and Canada.
