Serious Consequences
Illinois takes a tough stance on drug enforcement. Drug trafficking and other charges carry up to 30 years in jail. There is often little opportunity to negotiate lesser charges or other options.

- Home
- Car
- Boat
- Airplane
Our legal team provides thorough, aggressive defense. We evaluate every aspect of your case. We review your arrest or any seizures to determine if proper procedures were followed. If police officers or other law enforcement personnel violate your civil rights, we will fight to get evidence suppressed and the charges dismissed.
