In 1990, Lohan was investigated for insider trading and convicted of criminal contempt of court. He was sentenced to three years in jail in Nassau County, and was released in 1993 on five years' probation. During this time, his daughter Lindsay had started modeling for the Ford Models agency and was starring in commercials.{{cite news |url=http://www.people.com/people/lindsay_lohan/biography |title=Lindsay Lohan Biography|newspaper=People |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100729184701/http://www.people.com/people/lindsay_lohan/biography |archive-date=July 29, 2010 |url-status=dead |access-date=January 31, 2010}}{{cite news|url=https://www.rollingstone.com/music/artists/lindsay-lohan/biography|title=Lindsay Lohan: Biography|newspaper=Rolling Stone|access-date=December 19, 2012}}

In 1997, Lohan was arrested when he violated his probation after flying to Napa, California to visit Lindsay, who had been hospitalized for an asthma attack that occurred during the filming of The Parent Trap. He subsequently served a year in prison.

After Lindsay became a movie star, tensions arose in the family. This conflict came to a head on May 23, 2004 when he and Dina's youngest brother, Matt Sullivan, got into a fistfight outside Lohan’s Long Island home during a first communion party for their son Dakota. Lohan was charged with attempted assault and, while awaiting sentencing, was involved in a car accident that led to his being charged with driving under the influence of alcohol and aggravated unlicensed operation of a motor vehicle. While in prison, he took up singing and songwriting, as well as correspondence courses for Teen Challenge, a faith-based sobriety program. Michael and Dina Lohan separated again later that year. Lohan was later arrested on June 29 after allegedly leaving a Long Island hotel where he had rented several suites without paying his $3,800 bill, and faced assault charges in Manhattan for allegedly swearing at a sanitation worker and punching the worker in the face after the worker's truck blocked his car. On January 19, 2005, Dina's spokesperson confirmed that she had filed for divorce.

Lohan was released from prison in March 2007 after serving a two-and-a-half-year sentence in the Collins Correctional Facility.{{cite news |url=https://www.usatoday.com/life/people/2007-07-30-lohan-divorce_N.htm |title=Lohan's dad makes peace offering |agency=Associated Press |work=USA Today |date=July 30, 2007 |access-date=October 13, 2016 |archive-date=2016-03-01 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160301214823/http://usatoday30.usatoday.com/life/people/2007-07-30-lohan-divorce_N.htm |url-status=live }}Additional archive, October 13, 2016. He subsequently took up residence in a Teen Challenge center in West Babylon, New York, and underwent training to become a minister, though to be ordained requires his parole to end.

He subsequently worked as an actor and counselor with the Long Island Teen Challenge rehabilitation program.
