DUI Lawyer for Carpentersville, Illinois

DUI and Drunk Driving Defense in Carpentersville

The DUI laws of the state of Illinois are constantly changing and involve many technical issues. Understanding precisely how officers make DUI arrests, the process they must follow and how evidence can be collected can play an important role in determining the difference between heavy fines, a suspended license or jail time, and having charges reduced or thrown out.

At the DUI defense law office of Peter Buh I make it a priority to stay current on the developments in DUI laws. I explore every option when representing people in a DUI case, including thoroughly examining police officer conduct, seeking diversionary programs and arguing issues in court.

A DUI Attorney Who Will Work With You

Over the more than 17 in the criminal justice system, I have represented vacationers to the Chicago-land area, first time DUI offenders, individuals who have been previously convicted of a DUI, juveniles and clients accused of driving under the influence of prescription medication or narcotics.

I explore every option for you, including:

Examining the validity of the stop

Questioning whether the officer established impairment

Reviewing evidence and paperwork closely

Seeking diversionary programs for treatment or education

Reviewing videos of the traffic stop and arrest

Negotiating for reduced charges with the prosecution

When you have been charged with a DUI, you may face automatic license suspension, and for visitors to our state, that can translate into suspension of your license in your home state. I work with clients in both the administrative and criminal phases of a DUI case, and work hard to reduce penalties and restore your driving privileges.

More Than 18 years of Experience

I have been handling criminal cases in Illinois for more than 18 years, and that kind of experience provides insight into how to be effective for my clients. For Carpentersville DUI defense, contact my office and schedule your free initial consultation. I am your Carpentersville DUI Attorney.

Glen Ellyn DUI Attorney

If you have been arrested for DUI, you need an experienced and knowledgeable attorney. At the Law Office of Peter A. Buh, we know that DUI consequences, either at the misdemeanor or felony level, can be very severe. When you are charged with DUI, you are facing fines, driver's license suspension, mandatory drug and alcohol treatment, jail time, and even a breath alcohol ignition interlock device, which is a mechanism that requires you to use when you are driving your vehicle. Our firm analyzes your case thoroughly and from the start we challenge police procedures and breathalyzer test results, which often results in reduced charges and even dismissal of the case.

Remember, if you are arrested for DUI you must deal with the criminal court system and potentially face a driver’s license to try to prevent a driver's license suspension for up to 36 months. Let our firm represent you so that we can build a strong defense against the DUI charge and protect your driver's license.
