This initial call (when made in time) has saved many Michiganders their ability to keep driving. Read below how (as soon as you are arrested for OWI in Michigan), a 14-day deadline begins to count down.

WARNING! MICHIGAN 14-DAY TIME LIMIT – This applies to any arrested DUI driver who refused to submit to the post-arrest test. This would have been requested after arrest, for her or his breath alcohol, blood, or urine.

This administrative license suspension goes into effect after that OWI arrest occurs. Assuming that you were lawfully arrested for operating while intoxicated or for DUI-drugs in Michigan, your Michigan license (or privilege to drive in the State of Michigan, for those licensed by another state) is at risk of being suspended.

You must get help and demand an administrative hearing. Failing to take appropriate action within 14 days after your arrest means that you will be left without the ability to drive. This failure to appeal causes you to lose all ability to drive in Michigan. Obtain more information and legal help to save your driver’s license NOW before it’s too late. Michigan laws do not allow the deadline to be extended.

Patrick Barone is the ONLY choice for DUI defense. He was realistic from the start and made it a point to look at my case before taking my money. As a business owner, when I think of attorneys, I think of the "shark infested waters. Patrick is a shark alright, but his prey is not the client; it's justice for his client. Ten stars Patrick!!

Attorney Patrick Barone was very helpful and helped me understand the charge and sentence absolutely clearly. He also guided me through step by step helping me form a statement. His instructions were clear and detailed. It was obvious he cared about me understanding every important detail within my case. I would absolutely recommend this defense firm to anyone in need.

The Barone Defense Firm is the firm I recommend. They are truly concerned about the person, not just the legal issue, but the person as well. They are the most knowledgeable defense firm that I am aware of, having actually written the book on DWI Defense. If you are faced with a DWI you will not find a more professional and skilled law firm. But, most importantly, they care about how the accused individual recovers his or her life when the case is complete. Very remarkable group of lawyers. William H.
