Illinois Traffic Violation Defense Lawyer

Defending the rights of clients charged with traffic violation charges in DuPage, Cook, and surrounding counties.

What you need to know about traffic violation charges.

It happens in a flash - the blue lights in your mirror, the sinking feeling in your stomach, and that sickening realization that you're being pulled over.

Whether it's for speeding, running a stop sign, or a more serious moving violation, getting a traffic ticket can be more than just an inconvenience - it can have lasting consequences that many drivers don't fully understand.

What seems like "just a ticket" can quickly snowball into serious problems. Points on your license, skyrocketing insurance premiums, license suspension, and even potential job impacts can all result from traffic violations that people often dismiss as minor.

Many of our clients are surprised to learn how quickly multiple tickets can put their driving privileges at risk under Illinois' point system.

Whether you're facing a simple speeding ticket, a reckless driving charge, driving on a suspended license, or CDL violations that threaten your career, we'll explain your options clearly and fight to protect your driving record.

Our goal is straightforward: to minimize points, prevent license suspension, keep your insurance rates stable, and help you move past this challenge with as little disruption to your life as possible.
