The Law Offices of Harold L. Wallin proudly represents its clients throughout Northern Illinois, concentrating in DUI and related traffic matters, including driving while suspended or revoked and Secretary of State reinstatement hearings for revoked drivers.
Illinois leads the nation in cracking down on drunk drivers. A DUI conviction will automatically cause your driver's license to be revoked, and depending on your criminal and driving history, you could be faced with car forfeiture and prison time. Even worse, a DUI is one of the most difficult criminal cases to defend, because it is typically based on an officer's direct observation, bolstered in many cases by so-called "objective" chemical testing.
Therefore, you must have a qualified and experienced DUI defense attorney, who knows the ins and outs of the Illinois DUI laws and who is passionate about protecting your license. As you read through this web site, please look at the thank-you notes from a few of our satisfied clients as well as the reports of some of Mr. Wallin's recent victories. We hope that these examples will demonstrate to you that, even when faced with a so-called "open and shut" case, there may be a winning legal defense. These verdicts were achieved through many hours of hard work, sleepless nights, and a passionate desire to get the right results for our clients.
