DUI LAW
|
Although most Driving Under the Influence of Alcohol
(DUI) cases in Illinois are written on Uniform Traffic
Citations (tickets), make no mistake about it, a DUI charge
is not a simple traffic matter.
A DUI arrest in Illinois initiates both a criminal
prosecution and an administrative suspension (summary
suspension) of person’s driving privileges. In Illinois, a
first time offender charged with DUI can be imprisoned up to
any term less than one year, and fined up to $2,500.00.
Further, a conviction for DUI will revoke a person’s driving
privileges. In a DUI criminal prosecution, like all criminal
charges in Illinois, the Prosecution has the burden of
proving the case beyond a reasonable doubt.Read more on

PERSONAL INJURY LAW
Generally speaking, Personal Injury
law is the area of law that seeks compensation for victims who
were harmed or injured due to the negligence or fault of others.
The types of injuries can range from bumps and bruises to more
serious injuries that may result in the loss or incapacitation
of a loved one. Some of the most common forms of PI cases are:
(1) auto accidents,
(2) dog bite,
(3) medical malpractice,
(4) premises liability,
(5) products liability (injury suffered due to a defective
