Defense of DUI
A "Driving Under the Influence of Alcohol" charge is one which may seriously impact your life, your family and your job for years to come.
In Illinois, a DUI may be charged as a Class "A" misdemeanor, or as a felony based upon your driving record. Illinois also has Statutory Summary Suspension law, and if you submitted to a breath test and scored a .08 or above, or if you refused the breath test, your driving privileges will be suspended for a period of time, the length of which will depend upon whether or not you are a first offender.
You may be looking for answers to questions such as:
- Does the officer need probable cause before he stops me?
- Why didn't the officer read me my rights?
- Why did I get two DUI tickets?
- Does the officer have to let me consult with my attorney prior to taking the breath test?
- Was I required to take a breath test?
- Is the breath test valid if I blew into it more than once?
- Am I a first offender?
- How long will my driving privileges be suspended?
- Can I get a work permit?
- Do I have to complete an alcohol program?
- Am I eligible for Court Supervision?
- How will this affect my vehicle insurance?
