Defense Against Severe State Felonies
State prosecutors use vast resources to secure maximum convictions. Our attorneys use strong trial strategies to fight severe state charges. We defend against multiple felony types, including:
- Major retail theft and property crimes
- Aggravated battery accusations
- Severe indictments involving armed violence
- Major drug trafficking offenses
A felony conviction brings severe penalties, including mandatory prison terms and permanent damage to your life. Our attorneys prepare every case for a jury trial from day one. We do this to expose weak spots in the prosecution’s story.
Exposing Law Enforcement Overreach
A strong defense starts by challenging the actions of local police. Our attorneys review the methods of the Waukegan Police Department and the Lake County Sheriff’s Office. We work to expose constitutional violations, illegal traffic stops and overbroad searches. This helps us challenge the state’s evidence.
Our attorneys know the courtroom logistics inside the Lake County Criminal Court Tower. We counter the strategies of the Felony Prosecution Division of the Lake County State’s Attorney’s Office to protect your rights at every stage.
