Areas of Practice
Driving Under the Influence
DUI: Preventing the State from Suspending Your Driver’s License – The first step to winning a DUI case includes taking measures to stop the state from suspending your Illinois Driver’s License. The sooner I file a Petition to Rescind the Statutory Summary Suspension, the better our chances of stopping the suspension.
Furthermore, in the course of fighting the DUI license suspension, I will obtain the arresting officer’s testimony. I will use this testimony not only to try to stop your DUI license suspension during the hearing.
