I have represented criminal defendants in the state and federal courts for decades. Whether it is a DUI or a charge carrying decades of exposure, you need counsel who has tried cases rather than simply processed them.
I have defended clients in matters ranging from driving under the influence to the most serious felonies, in both state and federal court.
Matters I handle
- DUI and traffic offenses
- Drug charges, state and federal
- Weapons offenses
- Theft, burglary, and property crimes
- Assault, battery, and violent offenses
- Homicide
- White collar and fraud allegations
- Appeals and post-conviction proceedings
Before you speak to anyone
If you are under investigation or have been arrested, you are not required to answer questions without a lawyer present, and doing so rarely helps. Ask for counsel and call my office.
Federal cases
Federal prosecutions follow different rules, different sentencing procedures, and a different timetable than state court. I have appeared in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois and before the Seventh Circuit.
