As a School law attorney, I handle residency, disciplinary suspensions and expulsions and academic dishonesty matters.

Criminal And DUI Law Practice Philosophy:

I don’t assume your case has no defense, and neither should you. Before I even consider making a plea bargain, the State of Illinois has to convince me that there is no other choice.

Until then, I will investigate all your options. Did the police have probable cause to stop you? Does the state have the evidence necessary to convict you? Can I get any evidence against you thrown out by the judge? For most criminal offenses including DUI, the State of Illinois must prove you guilty beyond a reasonable doubt. My job is to hold them to that burden by probing the State’s case for weaknesses.

But even if the evidence against you is overwhelming, I may still be able to help you. An experienced, respected attorney can often negotiate a better plea agreement than you could on your own. I can help present your situation to the Court in its most favorable light.

No attorney can legitimately guarantee you an outcome, and neither can I. We simply do not control the judge or the facts. But I can guarantee that I will work hard to obtain the best possible outcome for your particular case.
