For a drunk driving case with Court scheduled for hearing at the 52-4 District Court in Troy, finding a top rated local lawyer that specializes in the defense of OUI accusations is urgent. The lifelong consequences of a DUI conviction means that you should not gamble with the lawyer who is going to defend you. The two Judges at the 52-4 District Court are not always predictable when it comes to a OUI sentence and probationary conditions if convicted of a OUI offense. Immediately retaining an experienced local OUI lawyer is important, because your lawyer needs time to build a strong defense and to implement a legal strategy on your behalf to help you achieve the best results.
In Michigan, felony OUI cases contain some of the toughest legal penalties. With a Michigan OUI felony conviction there are non-negotiable sentence terms such as a county jail or State of Michigan prison sentence, long hours of mandatory community service work, intensive long term alcohol/substance treatment and testing, and strict probationary conditions (if you avoid a prison sentence). If you are convicted of felony OUI after trial or by means of a guilty plea, the assigned Circuit Court Judge has the ability to choose the length of time you serve (although there is a required minimum sentence of 30 days in jail or 1 year in prison for felony OUI 3rd Offense. The Judge also cannot sentence you beyond the maximum sentence). OUI misdemeanors also carry tough sentence conditions upon conviction. For a misdemeanor OUI conviction the Judge can still put you in jail, and make you serve up to 2 years of probation. The Judge for a felony or misdemeanor conviction has no control over the driving penalty issued by the Michigan Secretary of State, even if your circumstances merit leniency or the driving penalty would pose a hardship. The only logical way to proceed after a OUI arrest is to hire an experienced local OUI attorney.
