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 our office.
Federal cases
Federal prosecutions follow different rules, different sentencing procedures, and a different timetable than state court. We have appeared in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois and before the Seventh Circuit.
