When facing criminal charges in Illinois, the most important decision you can make, beyond keeping your mouth shut, is choosing the right attorney. While experience in criminal law is essential, it is equally important that your lawyer is familiar with the specific courthouse where your case will be heard. If you have a case at […]
When people call us for Illinois criminal attorney referrals, one question we get a lot is, “Do they have a winning record?” There is a perception out there that you can look up an attorney’s record like they are baseball standings on espn.com or something. The truth is that there are no win/loss records available […]
You’ve heard the old saying that anything you say can and be used against you and that you have a right to remain silent? It’s great advice. And while I’m not saying you have to be a mute, there are clear answers you should give to the four most common questions a cop will ask […]
I get calls all of the time from people who have done nothing wrong looking for an Illinois criminal defense attorney. It’s usually some version of the police called me or came looking for me. When they are innocent, they will often tell me that they want to go talk to the police. “I didn’t […]
Most of us drivers out on the roads of Illinois drive a bit over the speed limit from time to time. We occasionally even feel that sense of dread when we see those blue and red police car lights flash behind us. We pull over, preparing to receive a ticket or hope that it’s not […]
Growing up I loved to rent and watch movies back when you went to Blockbuster or the town video store to actually rent a movie. I loved “Animal House” but now that I’m older I can see that while it was hilarious, there is also a really disturbing rape situation going on. I also enjoyed […]
If you get arrested and charged with a misdemeanor or felony in Cook County, it’s important that you take the charges seriously as jail time is a possibility.

I recently binge-watched “Better Call Saul.” It’s a great show, and to me, it’s even more interesting due to how it portrays being a lawyer. While it’s not 100% accurate of course, a lot of what they show mirrors experiences I’ve had when talking to potential clients. In one scene, a person who is suspected […]
Picture a 20-year-old college student from Wilmette, Naperville, or wherever, and they get pulled over and arrested for driving on a revoked license. They themselves aren’t rich but they have rich parents who can hire a good attorney and pay the $1,000 or $2,500 that the Judge asks for bail. Eventually, the case works its […]
I try to never fly out of O’Hare because for me getting to Midway is easier. It’s about half the time on the train from the Loop and when you get to the airport at O’Hare it feels like it takes forever to actually get to a gate. That’s to be expected at what was […]
Maybe it’s because I’ve been watching “Better Call Saul” that I’ve been thinking about this a lot, but I did get asked recently by someone if you should ever talk to the police. It’s a really easy answer. No. But what if you are innocent? No. But what if you think you can explain what […]
There is a saying in many businesses that is also mostly true in law. “It’s not about what you know, it’s about who you know.” When it comes to hiring a criminal defense attorney, what they know is very important. In other words, you don’t want an inexperienced attorney on your case if you have […]
A solvent trap is a gun accessory that can be used as a barrel cleaning accessory which provides an easy way to recycle solvent and save the gun owner some money. It attaches to the gun and can also be used as a silencer which in many cases is illegal. Some companies that sell solvent […]

Most speeding tickets in Illinois are a nuisance, but not that big of a deal legally speaking. If you are over 21 and have a clean driving record, you almost never need a lawyer for a ticket that’s something like 73 in a 55. You can do traffic school and get the ticket off your […]
