Strong Defense Against DUI/DWI Charges
Driving under the influence (DUI) and driving while intoxicated (DWI) are among the most common crimes charged in Illinois. DUI is not limited to “hardened criminals.” Rather, one simple mistake could lead to someone from any walk of life or background facing serious DUI charges that could result in a criminal record, serious fines and jail time, and a destroyed reputation.
Whether you are facing first, second or subsequent DUI charges, fight these charges aggressively. The consequences are too severe to let one mistake ruin your life.

Handling Every Step Of The DUI Defense Process
At Metcalf & Associates, P.C., our lawyers are prepared to represent you in all aspects of your defense, including:
- Investigation: We will look into all of the details of your case to find possible violations of your rights, illegal stops and searches and other errors by the police, human and technical errors in the breath and blood tests and other abnormalities that could weaken the state’s case against you.
- Negotiation: Based on our investigation, we can talk with the prosecuting attorney to possibly drop the case or reduce the charges against you.
- Trial: We take an aggressive, strategic approach to defending our clients in the criminal trial process.
- Sentencing: For first-time offenders, there are alternative sentencing options available. We will explore these and other options to minimize the penalties you will have to face.
- Appeals: Throughout your trial, we will be sure to make a record of everything that could justify an appeal. If appropriate, we will take your case to higher courts to appeal a conviction.
