Services
Specializing in Michigan Drunk Driving DUI/OWI Defense for Macomb, Oakland and Wayne County. The Law Offices of J. Erich Goetz focuses primarily on criminal defense and drunk driving defense (OWI/DUI/DWI). Mr. Goetz has defended clients in Macomb, Oakland and Wayne counties sine 1997. Our commitment to this area of law is reflected in our experience, knowledge, and proven track record for our clients.
The first thing you need to know about driver's license restoration in Michigan is that the Secretary of State (SOS) is not trying to help you get your driver's license back. I know this because I have been representing people in driver's license restoration cases since 1999 and have witnessed the many changes in driver's license restoration law and procedure.
One of the more common ways that a Michigan DUI lawyer in Macomb, Oakland or Wayne county can help their client fight a drunk driving charge is by getting the charge lowered from OWI (Operating While Impaired) to OWVI (Operating While Visibly Impaired). Michigan law recognizes Operating While Visibly Impaired as less severe, since it doesn't necessarily imply a bodily alcohol content.
In 2010, the Michigan Legislature enacted a "get-tough" addition to the criminal code - The "Super Drunk" Law. If you have recently been charged with a Michigan Super Drunk offense in Oakland, Macomb or Wayne county, you should immediately contact a qualified Michigan OWI lawyer to begin preparing to fight your charge.
A person who drives while intoxicated, impaired, or with the presence of any amount of a controlled substance is guilty of "child endangerment" if a child under the age of 16 years of age is a passenger in the vehicle. Michigan Child Endangerment penalties are quite severe.

If you've be charged with a Michigan OWI Child Endangerment in Macomb, Oakland or Wayne county you need to contact J. Erich Goetz as-soon-as-possible to help you prepare a your defense against this serious charge.

I met Attorney Goetz over a year ago when I was considering hiring him to handle a drivers license issue for me. He was polite,professional and intelligent. I was ready to proceed but he advised me it would be better to wait. His honesty is impressive.
