Ogemaw County - Navigating an OWI Charge: Lisa’s Journey After a DUI Arrest

​Lisa, a 32-year-old single mother from West Branch, was charged with Operating While Intoxicated (OWI) after driving home from a holiday party. Facing the possibility of losing her license and jeopardizing her ability to care for her children, Lisa was terrified. She knew she needed more than just legal representation; she needed someone who would listen and understand her situation.

When Lisa turned to attorney Jonathan Paul, he approached her case with empathy, recognizing the pressures Lisa faced as a single mom. Jonathan worked closely with Judge Mary Ann Beebe to present a defense that focused on rehabilitation rather than punishment. He ensured that Lisa’s license suspension was as brief as possible, and she was able to complete a community service program instead of facing jail time. With Jonathan’s compassionate defense, Lisa kept her job and was able to continue caring for her children while moving forward from the mistake.
