Charged with a Crime? Seek Criminal Defense in Washington IL

Whether looking to defend a friend, family member or yourself, you cannot risk not receiving professional criminal defense in Washington IL. Without an attorney defending your side of a case, you face punishment to the fullest extent of the law. Lawyers will work with you to reduce sentencing, drop charges, or prove your innocence. Allow Essig Law Office to examine your case and determine the best path forward.

What We Defend Against

Essig Law has the experience you need when handling a criminal case. We’ve helped clients throughout Central Illinois manage charges related to a variety of criminal offenses. Depending on your crime, we will plot a manageable strategy for your case, helping you to achieve the best possible outcome.

  • Traffic Violations – From minor violations, such as parking or speeding tickets, to major offenses, such as DUIs or hit and run accidents, we’ve advocated for it all. Having an attorney for your case can potentially lead to reducing charges and taking marks off your driving record.
  • Theft – Larceny or theft crimes can come with increasingly severe consequences, dependent on the amount of property and manner in which it was stolen. However, we understand people can make mistakes in times of crisis. We will work with the judge and prosecutors to negotiate sentencing alternatives and potentially drop charges.
  • Drug Charges – If you are caught using, holding, selling or trafficking illegal substances, this is considered a drug crime. However, the punishment for drug charges often doesn’t fit the crime. We will seek to strike a deal that will save you from large fines and possible jail time in your defense.
  • Assault and Violent Crimes – Anyone can get caught up in the heat of the moment. Or, perhaps an assault charge is not as it seems. Your criminal defense team will collect evidence and testimony in either case, explaining your side of a story to potentially shield you from some or all of the charges.
