• John Parnell:

  For most people in Michigan, driving a car is essential for our work, family, and community life. A DUI arrest or too many traffic violations can put an end to driving privileges or make it increasingly expensive to obtain the necessary car insurance.

  • If you are stopped for DUI, do not refuse when requested to take a PBT (portable breathalyzer test). If you refuse, your license may be suspended and/or revoked depending upon the circumstances.
     
  • Make sure you have an attorney who understands the law and will vigorously protect your rights during the investigation and in plea negotiations and court.
     
  • If you have been charged with boating under the influence, the charge could affect both your boating and driving privileges. Talk to a BUI attorney right away and protect your rights.
     
  • If you have received a ticket for speeding, reckless driving, leaving the scene of an accident, or driving without a license, take the charge seriously. It could cost you in terms of your license and your insurance rates.
     
  • When a minor child is arrested on MIP (minor in possession) charges, it could affect future job and educations opportunities.
• George Birch: A person accused of a drinking or drug related driving offense should retain counsel as soon as possible. They should not wait until the day before their hearing to think about hiring an attorney. Early enrollment in alcohol or substance abuse therapy will many times help a convicted offender at the time of sentence.
