Is it REALLY THAT Serious?-Why Do I NEED to Hire a DUI Attorney?

Yes, it is really that serious.

As the 4th of July approaches, The Reese Law Center, LLC. wants you to know how a DUI can affect your freedom.

If you are convicted of a DUI in the state of Illinois, with no priors, you are facing:
  •        Minimum of 1-year loss of driving privileges
  •        A maximum fine of $2,500
  •        Possible jail time of up to 1 year



If you are convicted of a second DUI, you are facing:
  •       Minimum of 5-year loss of full driving privileges (if this is your second conviction within a 20-year period)
  •        Mandatory 5 days in jail or 240 hours of community service
  •       Possible jail time of up to 1 year
  •        Maximum fine of $2,500



If you are convicted of a third DUI, you are facing:
  •       A third conviction is a Class 2 felony
  •       Minimum 10 years of lost driving privileges
  •       Possible imprisonment of up to 7 years
  •       Maximum fine of $25,000



The stakes are too high for you to pursue this alone. When you are pulled over by the police and you are accused of drunk driving, the best thing for you to do is be quiet and ask to speak to your attorney before you agree to do any tests. The attorneys at The Reese Law Center, LLC. know what is in your best interest and how you should go forward. Give us a call (708)914-4570.
