Act Fast to Protect Your
Rights After a DUI Arrest
If you've recently been arrested and charged with a DUI (also referred to as a DWI) in southern Illinois — you are facing a number of serious potential consequences.
Your Illinois drivers' license could be suspended. You might lose your livelihood (if you hold a commercial drivers' license). If you were arrested as an out-of-state driver, the license issued by your home state could be suspended as well. You could also go to jail.
At the law offices of Scott B. Meyer, our knowledge of Illinois' ever-changing DUI laws, and the more than 25 years of experience our attorney has to offer, can help you defend against these and other potential consequences of a drunk driving arrest. We understand the technical and scientific aspects associated with DUI charges and we know when and how the evidence can be effectively challenged in these cases.
The bottom line? When you need an experienced DUI defense lawyer in St. Clair County or surrounding portions of southern Illinois, call or contact our law firm.
Traffic Violations Defense
After being pulled over and given a traffic ticket, most people assume that there's nothing they can do about it and that they should just go ahead and pay the fine. In some cases, these people are right. In others, not so much. The only way to find out is to talk to a lawyer who knows the traffic laws and the local courts.
Our criminal defense attorney has those assets and has effectively helped adult and juvenile drivers cited for speeding violations, reckless driving and other serious traffic offenses in this area. As an advocate, he may be able to help you get traffic tickets dismissed, reduced to offenses that carry fewer points or secure minimum penalties or suspensions.
