Far too often, individuals charged with DUI or drunk driving believe there is no defense to the charge.
There are many defenses, however, that may be appropriate - and can help you successfully defend your drunk driving charge.
My experience has identified several general defense strategies as the most successful for drunk driving and DUI cases in Michigan.
Every DUI case is different and no single defense or group of defenses is appropriate for every case.
Because of this, it's important for your DUI case to be reviewed by a qualified attorney to determine whether your case could be challenged.

Drunk driving has been referred to a number of ways over the years, (including DUI, DWI, OUIL, etc.), but currently in Michigan it is referred to as Operating While Intoxicated (OWI).
In Michigan, the crime of DUI also has a "lesser included offense" known as Operating While Visibly Impaired, or OWVI.
The existence of a lesser included offense is extremely important because it allows the prosecutor to prove impairment while driving due to the consumption of alcohol even if he or she is unable to prove that you were at or above the limit of.08 grams of alcohol per 210 liters of breath.

If you have been charged with an alcohol or drug related driving offense, the prosecutor believes you have somehow violated Michigan's Drunk Driving Statute.
The statute also contains the possible penalties that may be imposed.
You should understand that these are maximum penalties and that actual penalties are likely to be less severe.
However, with the climate for drunk drivers becoming increasingly difficult, more and more courts are imposing stiffer penalties near the higher end of guidelines.

With regard to possible defenses, discuss the case in detail with the DUI Lawyer (rather than an assistant who screens calls) so that the attorney can properly and efficiently analyze your case.
Even if you believe a certain detail is not important, disuss it anyway and allow the lawyer to decide the relevance of it.
Time is of the essence to prevent destruction or loss of evidence, and there are a wide range of defenses that must be considered.
Something that may not seem relevant to one defense can be critical to another.
