Frequently Asked Questions

What should I do if I am contacted by law enforcement in Michigan?

You have a constitutional right to remain silent and a right to legal counsel. It is highly recommended that you politely decline to answer questions or sign statements until you have secured an experienced defense attorney to protect your interests.

What is the difference between a DUI and an OWI in Michigan?

In Michigan, drunk driving is legally referred to as an OWI (Operating While Intoxicated). While people frequently use the colloquial term “DUI,” they refer to the same set of strict laws governing driving under the influence of alcohol, prescription drugs, or controlled substances.
