Illinois DUI law is complex, and your defense should be handled by an experienced DUI attorney.  While DUI law is consistent throughout the state of Illinois, each county court may have different rules for DUI or drunk driving case procedures. A Chicago DUI case, or any Cook County DUI case, proceeds differently than a DUI in Lake County or DuPage County.  Driver’s license suspensions are also handled differently.  Missing the subtle differences can mean missing opportunities to protect you and your driver’s license. Your Chicago DUI attorney must be aware of these details, because not knowing is detrimental to the outcome of your case. DUI statutes in Illinois continue to get more complex every day, with our legislature putting enormous pressure on defendants.
