DUI

Peoria DUI/DWI Lawyer

After an arrest for DUI/DWI, you have important decisions to make. You will need strong and effective representation. You must act quickly to hire a lawyer, to begin the defense process and protect your driving privileges. You may have to consider making some changes in your life-style.

Essig Law Office is a criminal defense law firm with extensive experience in cases involving DUI/DWI and suspended and revoked driver's licenses. We are experienced, knowledgeable and determined to achieve our clients’ goals.

An Arrest Starts Two Legal Proceedings

A drunk driving case involves two legal proceedings — a criminal proceeding and an administrative process that could lead to the loss of your driver's license. Essig Law Office will vigorously defend you in both proceedings.

Our first objective will be to obtain temporary driving privileges. We will then work to build a strong and effective defense for you.

Successful DUI/DWI Defense Strategies

Depending on the evidence and the behavior of the police, it may be possible to successfully defend a DUI/DWI charge. For example, the police may not have had probable cause to stop and question you. The field sobriety tests may have been improperly conducted. There may be problems with the breath test results or how the breathalyzer test was conducted. These and other issues may provide the basis for an effective defense of the charge.

Our attorneys will carefully review all aspects of your case. If there is a way to successfully defend the charge in court, we will do so aggressively. In other cases, it may make sense to seek a negotiated outcome that minimizes the penalties you. It may even be possible to get a court supervision outcome, which keeps a conviction for drunk driving off your record.

We will explain the strengths and weaknesses of the evidence and your legal options. Whatever your decision, Essig Law Office will use every means possible to protect your rights.
