Michigan DUI Lawyer
Nationally Recognized Law Firm, Serving Michigan for Decades
State law prohibits anyone in Michigan from operating a motor vehicle with a blood alcohol concentration (BAC) of 0.08% or above. Additionally, the state’s “zero-tolerance” policy forbids anyone under the age of 21 from operating a motor vehicle with a BAC of 0.02% and above. Though generally categorized under the umbrella term “DUI,” driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs in Michigan typically falls under one of two categories: operating while under the influence of drugs or alcohol (OWI) and operating while visibly impaired (OWVI).
Important Facts About DUI Charges in Michigan
Once you have been charged with driving under the influence, it is essential that you get a clear picture of what to expect and understand all the facts related to your case. In most cases, a higher blood alcohol concentration will result in a more severe punishment – but it can also vary depending on the circumstances of your case, as police may issue a severe OWVI charge simply by noticing your behavior and assuming that you must be drunk.
Your penalties for any DUI charges may include hundreds of dollars in fines, license revocation, and up to 1 year in jail. Additionally, prosecutors do not even need to take your BAC in order to charge you with OWVI. These charges are extremely serious and can threaten your rights and liberties, which is why it’s crucial that you contact an experienced attorney as soon as possible who can work to protect your best interests.

Tailored DUI Defense Strategies
Depending on the specific circumstances involved in your situation, our firm can use several strategies to dispute the validity of your charges.
Often, our Michigan DUI attorneys will look at the following factors when investigating your case:
- Did the police officer have reason to stop you?
- Did the arresting officer make any false or misleading statements?
- Was the breathalyzer or other test administered correctly?
- Were the results of your test handled correctly?
- Was the breathalyzer properly calibrated before the test was administered?
- Were proper police procedures followed during the time of arrest?
- Were there any problems related to police jurisdiction?
We conduct thorough investigations and pursue every available avenue to ensure that your rights were not violated. We can also help you work to have your driver’s license reinstated if it was revoked as a result of your refusal to take a breathalyzer test.
