At the law office of James Stern, P.C., we help Illinois residents, minors, visitors and college students who have been pulled over for drunk driving. We also assist those with commercial driver's licenses (CDL) who are facing charges of DUI.
We provide knowledgeable legal representation to alleged first-time offenders and those with prior DUI convictions. We defend individuals charged with misdemeanor DUI as well as felony-level DUI offenses — whether the escalation is based on prior convictions or blood alcohol content levels.
Experienced Defense on Your Side
Our attorney, James Stern, has extensive experience defending clients who have endured a DWI arrest. As your legal counsel, he strives to have charges dismissed if possible, contesting illegal or unreliable evidence. When not possible, he will pursue a reduction of charges, avoidance of conviction or minimization of penalties. While always open to favorable negotiations for his clients, he does not back down from trial and is a practiced courtroom advocate, having handled over 100 jury trials.
Although we cannot guarantee conviction will be avoided, you can be certain we will utilize every available option to help you put your life back on track.
Reinstating Your Driver's License
A main concern of our clients is reinstatement of their driver's license following a suspension for DUI. We are able to assist by requesting that the court lift your license suspension or issue a work permit on your behalf.
