Driving Under the Influence (DUI)
Driving Under the Influence (DUI) is one of the most commonly charged criminal traffic offenses. State laws are aimed at punishing those who drink and drive or those who drive while under the influence of illegal substances. In Illinois, people who are convicted of these offenses are subject to severe penalties including jail time, substantial fines, and/or revocation or suspension of a driver’s license. First offenders are NOT immune from these consequences.
Operating a motor vehicle is often a necessity, but a driver’s license is a privilege that can be granted, suspended and revoked by the Secretary of State. If you are arrested on a DUI charge, your license to drive can be suspended from 3 months to 3 years –– regardless of whether you are acquitted or convicted on the charge. If you are convicted on DUI charges, your license will be revoked and you may face a prison sentence. A DUI can cause economic hardship and, in some cases, a loss of liberty. Our DUI attorneys understand how important it is for you to maintain your driving privileges.

Misdemeanor charges may be considered minor criminal offenses, but being accused or convicted of a misdemeanor can cause a major disruption in the life of the accused. A misdemeanor charge is usually punishable by a fine and/or incarceration. Prosecutors typically do not convene a grand jury to investigate or issue indictments for misdemeanor charges, although the same conduct may give rise to both misdemeanor and felony charges.
