St. Clair, MI DUI and OWI Law Firms & Lawyers

The prosecutor can usually look at your lein record and find them. The police may not have and could have charged you with a OWI First Offense; however, if/when they find out, they could enhance it if your last drunk driving in Florida was within 7 years, or the 3 together were within 10 years, you could be charged with a felony. I would obtain a lawyer in the area where you received your last Michigan offense, usually best to have a local lawyer, who can deal with the prosecutor's office. You have the right to remain silent and did not have to tell them about the previous offenses when you were arrested, but you can't lie, just take the 5th. Your driver license could also be suspended or revoked, depending on how far apart your drunk driving's were. If you were driving on a Florida license, the Secretary of State, will notify Florida if you are convicted. If you were driving on a Michigan license, Florida may not be contacted.

There is no reason to be loyal to any particular insurance company, they are all bad. Use this as an opportunity to shop around. No, your son does not have to be on your policy. And yes, you can name your son as an excluded driver on your policy so his age and conviction will not be used against you, but if you that, he CANNOT drive the car, EVER, if he does, and causes damage or hurts himself or someone else, you will NOT be covered by insurance.

You son will have to live his life, and suffer the consequences of his actions. He is not learning his lessons. It is not your fault or responsibility.
