DUI Defense

Aggressive Tinley Park Criminal Defense Attorney Protecting Rights of Clients Facing DUI Charges

DUIDrinking and driving in the state of Illinois can lead to serious consequences, including the loss of driving privileges, jail time, monetary fines, and a criminal record. At the Fotopoulos Law Office, we do not believe that a driving under the influence (DUI) arrest should haunt you for the rest of your life. We will fight aggressively for you and work to protect you from the life-altering consequences of a DUI conviction.

DUI Charges in Illinois

Each state creates and enforces its own DUI laws and programs. Illinois has one of the strictest in the country. In fact, even on a first conviction, DUI offenders are at risk of losing their driving privileges. If there are any additional aggravating factors, such as having a minor in the car or an accident that results in the bodily harm or death of another, there may be additional penalties added. This applies, even for first-time offenders. Additional convictions, which look back over your entire driving record, also increase the weight of your consequences. By the third DUI arrest, you are looking at a felony charge. Upon your fourth conviction, your right to drive could be permanently suspended.

Our attorney believes that life does not have to be forever altered by a single mistake. Dedicated to your best interests, our law firm will treat your case with the dedication and respect it deserves. Whether you are facing your first, second, or a subsequent DUI charge, we will aggressively defend your rights and seek to protect you from the consequences of a DUI conviction. Obtain the skilled help you need to fight your DUI charges.
