Finding an attorney who is a “real person” can be difficult. Many attorneys surround themselves almost exclusively with other attorneys and are accustomed to speaking in ivory tower legalese. You should be able to connect with your attorney on a personal level, and he or she should speak to you in plain language that you can understand. You will be working very closely with this person on issues that are very important to you. It is important that he or she be down-to-earth and someone that you connect with.
The most common complaint that clients have of their attorneys is that the attorney is unreachable, does not communicate with them regularly, or does not promptly return your calls. Your attorney should reach out to you about your case regularly and respond within 24 hours to calls and e-mails. An open line of communication between you and your attorney is essential to building trust.

Regardless of the nature of your case, we have an experienced attorney who will focus on your individual needs. Our team of attorneys works closely together, bringing each of their different fields of experience to bear in order to optimize our client care.

Our DuPage County criminal attorneys explain what to do if you are pulled over for a DUI in the following companion blog.
Oftentimes, if you are charged with a DUI, you will be able to negotiate a plea deal with the state.
Sometimes a plea may not be possible. If this is the case, you may be eligible for court supervision. Court supervision allows you to get your license back and avoid getting a conviction on your record. Some of the requirements to court supervision are paying a fine, undergoing alcohol evaluation, and participating in a Victim Impact Panel, and performing community service. Your case will be dismissed after your court supervision requirements are met. This process typically takes 12 months.
