Protecting Your Rights and Your Future

When you’re arrested for impaired driving, the stakes are high. We scrutinize every detail of your traffic stop and arrest. Our attorneys examine whether officers had reasonable suspicion, if testing equipment was properly calibrated, and whether your rights were violated during the process.

Consequences of a Conviction in Michigan

A drunk driving conviction in Michigan carries consequences that extend far beyond fines. Your driver’s license may be suspended or restricted, making daily commuting and family obligations nearly impossible. Insurance rates often triple or quadruple, and some carriers refuse coverage altogether. Professional licenses can be jeopardized, and employment opportunities can disappear when background checks reveal convictions. You may face mandatory alcohol education programs, community service, probation, and even jail time. In Dearborn Heights and surrounding communities, where reliable transportation is essential, license suspension creates serious hardship. We understand these realities and fight aggressively to protect your driving privileges, your record, and your future.

How We Build Your Defense

• Challenge Traffic Stop Validity: We examine whether the officer had reasonable suspicion to pull you over. Stops made without proper justification can result in case dismissal.
• Question Testing Accuracy: Breathalyzers and blood tests require strict protocols. We investigate calibration records, maintenance logs, and administration procedures to identify errors.
• Review Field Sobriety Tests: These tests are subjective and affected by medical conditions, weather, and road surfaces. We challenge their reliability and administration.
• Examine Rights Violations: If officers failed to read your rights or improperly obtained evidence, we move to suppress that evidence from trial.
• Negotiate Reduced Charges: When appropriate, we work to reduce charges to lesser offenses with minimal consequences, preserving your record and freedom.
