Sorry this pro can’t do your job, but we know other pros who can.
Introduction
I am a seasoned criminal defense attorney. Before becoming a lawyer I served in the U.S. Army for 10 years. ​ I handle criminal cases only. My practice focuses primarily on DUI defense, but I have represented hundreds of people in nearly every type of criminal proceeding. In any criminal matter you will need aggressive and experienced counsel to successfully defend your rights. I know the strategies used by prosecutors and, more importantly, I know how to defend against them. ​ If it is crucial to have a seasoned criminal defense attorney in your corner who can handle such high-stakes cases and ensure that you are treated fairly in and out of court, I am your man. My deep understanding of the law and familiarity with criminal court procedures puts my clients in an advantageous position to get results.​ Call me now for a FREE discussion of your case on my personal cell. You will work directly with me. Prior starting my own firm, I worked under the direction of a nationally-recognized criminal and DUI defense attorney for many years. In law school I clerked for the Homicide Task Force at Cook County Public Defender's Office and the DuPage County Public Defender's. I earned a J.D. from UIC Law, an M.A. from Purdue University Calumet, and a B.A. from The University of Illinois at Chicago. I also served in the U.S. Army for 4 years and in the National Guard for 6. I am currently a member in good standing of the Illinois State Bar Association, the DuPage Bar Association, the Cook County Bar Association, and the National College for DUI Defense.

If youre looking for a caring and kind Lawyer whos willing to actually listen and care about your case then Mr. OConner is the Attorney for you. With being an expert at the class he defends; he helps you make the best move based on your life and what works best in your interests. Ive never had someone care about a case or more so the client from working with him. He goes above and beyond and is extremely friendly and helpful when it comes to understanding the necessary steps to take and the best options for the defendant to proceed without anything on your record or even striking a deal. His kindness doesnt just stop at his heart; but if youre looking for an affordable attorney; Mr OConner has all the other options beat because I wouldnt have been able to afford an attorney if it wasnt for him. If I could give him 20 stars of approval and appreciation; he wouldve deserved every one of them. A huge thank you and shout out to one of the kindest most helpful people I have ever had the pleasure of meeting or working alongside with. Thank you a million times over!!!

Attorney O'Connor stood out as the only one willing to discuss details before I made a hiring decision. He's a very careful person, never exaggerates the situation, and greatly calms me down. He answered most of my questions detailedly within 24 hours.
