Illinois DUI and DWI Defense
Consequences of a DUI (DWI drunk driving) related conviction in Illinois are severe. Indidivuals convicted of drunk driving may face punishments such as imprisonment, probation, loss or suspension of driver's license, forced rehabilitation programs, heavy fines, and/or community service. Each case is unique and Chicago DUI attorney Jessica C. Bentz treats each set of circumstances with aggressive representation and an individualized legal analysis.

Save Your License
If you are arrested for a DUI/DWI in Illinois your license could be suspended. An experienced criminal lawyer should question the initial stop by police before proceeding to the merits of the case. Ms. Bentz begins each case by investigating whether law enforcement had a valid reason for the traffic stop and whether evidence was gathered in accordance with your rights under the law. If applicable, she will file a petition in an endeavor to prevent the summary suspension of the driver's license.
