Working to Avoid Conviction or Minimize Penalties

In Illinois, conviction for drug charges can bring about serious consequences, whether you are arrested in a meth bust or for simple possession of a small amount of marijuana. You may face high fines, probation, prison or jail time, as well as a mandatory drug treatment program. As a college student, the availability of federal student loans may even be affected by a drug conviction. We put our experience to work for you, always dedicated to minimizing the negative impact to your life now and in your future.

Our ultimate goal as your legal defense is to help you avoid a conviction. Although we cannot guarantee this will be the case, we strive to help you by seeking dismissal of charges when appropriate, suppression of illegal or incompetent evidence, negotiating favorable plea bargains or pursuing your defense in trial if necessary. If conviction cannot be avoided, we always seek to have penalties or fines minimized.
