If you get arrested or charged with a crime, the state immediately begins building a case against you. Prosecutors prepare every detail with the goal of a conviction. Without a strong legal defense, you risk harsh penalties that can affect your record, career, and future.
An experienced defense lawyer can protect your rights at every stage of the process. From the time the police begin questioning you through to your final court appearance, you need someone who understands how the system works and how to challenge the state’s evidence. A skilled defender can reduce the charges against you, negotiate better outcomes, or fight for an acquittal before a jury.
Even if this is your first arrest, the consequences of your case could follow you for years. A conviction might result in jail time, license suspensions, steep financial penalties, or limits on your employment opportunities. You cannot afford to take chances or assume the court will go easy on you.
The right lawyer gives you the best chance of protecting your freedom and moving forward. A criminal charge is serious, and your defense should be, too.
Criminal defense is not a side practice for Probst Law Office, Inc. – it is our exclusive focus. That focus matters both inside and outside the courtroom. Regardless of the type of charge you face, we can fight to protect your rights and limit the damage a criminal case could cause to your life.

The impact of DUI/OVI charges can reach every part of your life. A conviction could cost you your license, raise your insurance rates, and put your job at risk. We handle all types of DUI and OVI cases, including those involving multiple offenses, refusals of breath or blood tests, felony-level charges, and serious accidents. We also defend college students and drivers under 21 who face alcohol-related charges.
Sex crime charges often carry a lasting stigma, even for cases that never go to trial. We represent clients accused of sexual assault, rape, possession of child pornography, and other sex-related offenses. These cases are sensitive and often technical, involving digital evidence and detailed testimony. We approach each case with the skill and preparation necessary to protect your rights and your reputation.
When your future is on the line, you need more than someone who simply shows up in court. That’s where attorney Michael Probst comes in. He brings nearly two decades of criminal defense experience across Ohio’s state and federal courts. Michael knows how prosecutors think because he used to be one, and that insight gives his clients a clear advantage when it matters most.
Every defense case demands a strategy built around your situation. Some cases call for tough negotiation to reduce charges and penalties. Others require a trial lawyer who will stand before a jury and fight for a not guilty verdict. Michael Probst has the experience and skill to take either approach, and he’ll prepare for every possible turn in your case from day one.
Clients trust Probst Law Office, Inc., because of our focus on results, not empty promises. Whether you’re facing charges for a DUI or a federal offense, you can expect direct communication, honest advice, and a defense strategy tailored to protect your freedom.
Michael Probst has defended people across Ohio for more than 20 years. His career began in the Ohio Court of Appeals, where he worked as a staff attorney drafting judicial opinions. He then became an assistant prosecutor in Union County, where he gained firsthand knowledge of how the state builds criminal cases. Today, that experience gives his clients a considerable advantage when fighting back against the same system.
Since moving into private practice in 2002, Michael has focused entirely on criminal defense. His work has taken him into courtrooms throughout Ohio, from local mayors’ courts to the United States District Court for the Southern District of Ohio.
Michael approaches each case with close attention to detail and a willingness to explore all possible defense strategies. Some cases demand strong negotiations to limit penalties and protect a client’s record. Others require full preparation for trial. Michael never assumes a case will resolve quickly or easily. He prepares every defense as if it were headed for trial, which puts his clients in the strongest positions possible, whether their cases end in negotiation or in court.
