 What you can do
to help your dui case
Take your DUI arrest seriously and do not attempt to defend yourself - retain the services of an experienced Illinois DUI Counsel.
Do not fail to appear in Court as required. You risk the
Court issuing a warrant for your arrest.
If you do choose to appear in Court without an attorney, do not accept
the prosecutor's first offer. It is unlikely the prosecutor
will offer to reduce or dismiss the charge. Do not give up
your right to require the State to prove its case against
you.
Do not speak with others about your case. You may
unintentionally make statements which will turn others into
witnesses against you.
Prepare a list of potential witnesses. But, do not
investigate your own case.
Hire a competent DUI attorney as soon as possible. The law is
complex and the risks are great. You need competent
representation and legal counsel to take advantage of your constitutional
rights, and counter the prosecution and the state’s
resources.
Do not hire an attorney based on the attorney’s fees alone.
Attorneys who request low fees are likely to do little work. Do a little research and see if they can get results.
