Criminal Defense Attorney Serving Chicago's West Suburbs

A Strong Defense for Your Future

After being charged with a crime, you need an experienced and dedicated defense attorney who can help you navigate the court process and explain the possible consequences of a conviction on your charge.

If you have been arrested, it is likely that you have received numerous letters from other attorneys informing you of their services and that you have the choice in hiring your representation. Although this is true, it is important to know that just having an attorney is not enough in many cases. Not every attorney is created equal, and it is extremely important to find one who will do everything necessary to get you the best outcome possible in your situation.

Expunge Your Criminal Record

Securing a record expungement can be a labor-intensive process, but it can be highly worthwhile for those who qualify. An expungement can offer you a clean slate from damaging criminal convictions that can prevent you from securing a loan, renting an apartment or another rental property, applying for certain work or even attending some secondary school ls.

Our attorney has considerable experience seeking expungements in Illinois, and he can help you determine if your record is eligible as well as help you through the process of clearing your record.
