Michigan Minor in Possession (MIP)
of Alcohol Defense Lawyer

Michigan is a zero-tolerance state for minors under the age of twenty-one years. Any amount of alcohol in a minor’s blood stream can result in a DUI or DWI charge. It is a common myth that, because an individual was a minor at the time of thier alcohol conviction, the conviction will disappear from your criminal record when you turn twenty-one. A conviction will remain part of the record unless you actively fight to get it removed or sealed from public view. Any future convictions as an adult may carry additional penalties based upon a conviction as a minor.
