Driving Under the Influence (DUI)
Being charged with driving under the influence is a serious offense, and can result in significant repercussions including the following penalties:
- Jail time
- Probation
- Large fines
- Court-ordered alcohol programs
- Suspension or revocation of driver’s license
A conviction for DUI can leave you without a license and therefore no means by which to travel to and from work. Although the sentencing guidelines are strict, our Wicker Park DUI lawyers can work to help alleviate the stress of finding a new method of transportation by negotiating for a Breath Alcohol Ignition Interlock Device (BAIID) or driving relief.
As these convictions are very serious, having a dedicated attorney by your side can help greatly improve your circumstances.
Our defense attorneys will work hard to help you retain your driver’s license, minimize or eliminate your jail time, and reduce fines.
