5. O'Gara & Gomric: DUI If you are pulled over and your BAC is 0.08 or more, the officer will immediately suspend your license for 180 days. You will be given a receipt that allows you to continue driving following your arrest. This gives you time to fight the arrest and suspension. On the 46th day after your arrest, the suspension snaps into effect. The best thing you can do if you have been arrested for a DUI is to seek strong legal counsel. Do not let one slip up lead to another.
6. Hampton, Polly: Arrested for DWI? Don't assume you have no defense. * Did the police have cause to stop your car? They can't stop you unless there is a good reason. * Was the breathalyzer test properly administered? Was the equipment properly calibrated? Breathalyzers can be wrong - their results can be challenged in court. * Field sobriety tests are notoriously unreliable and people fail them for lots of reasons.
7. Hammel, Jeff: A DUI/DWI charge can carry with it serious criminal and civil penalties, including a loss of your driving privileges and potential limitations on your freedom. A conviction can have long-lasting and material repercussions on your life if not dealt with promptly.
8. Ellis, Jim: DUI/DWI In Illinois, 99% of all DUI cases involve a two-step process: the civil suspension of your drivers' license and the criminal prosecution for violation of the law. If you are convicted, your license will automatically be revoked and you may forfeit your vehicle and face incarceration.
9. Meyer, Scott: If you're under the age of 21 in Illinois and you are caught in possession of alcohol, you may lose your license - even if you were not inside your vehicle at the time you were caught. In addition, the state has the ability to suspend your license, depending on the nature of your offense and on whether you accept or refuse a Breathalyzer test.
10. Kellog Law Firm: Whether you are faced with a state or federal criminal charge you will need an experienced lawyer who will stand up and fight for you. A great deal is at stake when you are charged with a DWI/DUI, drug possession or federal crime.
11. Evanko, Lyndon: Can a law enforcement officer detain you without arresting you? Based upon reasonable suspicion that you may be involved in criminal activity, a police officer may require you to identify yourself and explain your presence at a particular time, without arresting you. Under Illinois law, the officer may not remove you from the immediate vicinity without making an arrest, unless you voluntarily accompany the officer to some other location. If the officer has reasonable grounds to believe that you are armed, he or she may conduct a limited pat-down of your outer garments for the purpose of detecting weapons. If this "frisk" results in reasonable belief on the part of the officer that you are carrying a weapon, the officer may remove the suspicious object for protection. The officers must return to you any unlawful object found, unless they place you under arrest. Unless the officer places you under arrest, the frisk or search must be limited to suspected weapons. The officer may ask you some questions in order to complete the field interrogation card. You have a constitutional right not to answer them, or give your name, unless the officer has an articulable suspicion that you are involved in a crime. At the conclusion of this temporary detention the officer must either arrest you or let you go. If you should enter a retail establishment where goods are placed on display and for sale, the merchant or the employees may detain you on the premises for a reasonable time for questioning if they have probable cause to believe that you have stolen or have attempted to steal goods for sale. Under such circumstances a police officer called to the scene may make an arrest for shoplifting even though the alleged offense was not committed in the officer's presence.
