Michael Lohan Will "Pursue Any And All Appropriate Legal Action To Save And Protect" Lindsay

“Michael loves his daughter with all his heart.  He has watched along with the rest of us over the past few months as Lindsay has been photographed partying and clubbing night after night, appearing as though she is under the influence of alcohol or substances.  He is heartbroken about her current condition.  With his own two eyes, just last week, he has seen her looking worse than ever.

“Michael is not going to stand idly by and watch his daughter become another Hollywood statistic.  He intends to do everything in his power to prevent Lindsay from becoming another Marilyn Monroe, Anna Nicole Smith, Michael Jackson, Heath Ledger, or Corey Haim.

“Michael has retained me as his attorney to pursue any and all appropriate legal action to save and protect his daughter.  The law affords a parent who believes his adult child is not in control of her health and welfare a number of legal options.  As of now, all options are open.

“It is Michael’s hope, and mine, that none of that will be necessary.  In the coming days we will seek to meet with Lindsay and her attorney to come up with an appropriate treatment plan that will allow her to get her life back on course.  If, however, that does not happen, Michael is prepared to pursue other legal action towards his one and only goal - to save and protect his daughter. "

Lindsay’s attorney, Shawn Chapman Holley, tells RadarOnline.com, “I am speaking with Michael’s lawyer, Lisa Bloom, about appropriate next steps and legal options on both sides.”
