Legal Philosophy
A client’s legal matter may be the most important issue in their life; so treat each case, be it a minor traffic violation, DUI, a license reinstatement or something as serious as a murder defense, as though it is the most important case in the office.
Flat fees let everyone know what to expect from the very beginning. No one likes to be surprised with a legal bill.
The Constitution of the United States guarantees all of the rights of the accused, regardless of the guilt or innocence of the defendant. It is the job of the defense counsel to ensure that those precious rights are respected by the police and the court system.
The toughest legal issue that I have confronted is the Illinois death penalty (two clients, no death imposed).
Attorneys advise, clients decide.
