With a former Will County State’s Attorney on your side, you can put a prosecutor’s knowledge and experience to work for you to overcome your DUI case. JohnPaul Ivec, a DUI attorney in Will County, is certified by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) and the International Association of Chiefs of Police (IACP) in DWI Detection and Standardized Field Sobriety Testing. This is the same training given to officers in detecting DUIs.

  • Aggravated Speeding Over 30 mph
  • Aggravated Speeding Over 40 mph
  • DUI and Aggravated DUI;
  • Driving with a revoked or suspended license;
  • Driving without a license;
  • Driving without car insurance;

DUIs or Aggravated DUIs

The DUI process is complex, and a conviction for a DUI or aggravated DUI can have a major and significant effect on your life. Penalties for a serious DUI conviction can be considerable, including loss of full driving privileges, costly fines and penalty fees up to $25,000, probation, significant increases in insurance costs, and possible jail time.

Additionally, if you’re a DUI first-timer who has had your driver’s license revoked due to a summary suspension, your driving privileges can be subject to a Monitoring Device Driving Permit (MDDP). The MDDP allows you to drive during the summary suspension; however, you will be required to install a breath alcohol ignition interlock device (BAIID) in all vehicles titled in your name. Driving privileges under the MDDP are available on the 31st day of your summary suspension. The costs of a BAIID are pretty high, so it is critical to challenge the summary suspension by filing a petition to rescind the summary suspension as soon as possible. An experienced and dedicated attorney may be able to win your summary suspension hearing.
