Firm: The Summary Law Firm

I have always been interested in practicing criminal law as far back as I can remember.  After I graduated law school I went straight into working at the Public Defender's office where I gained experience handling hundreds of criminal cases from simple misdemeanors to complex Class A & B felonies.  After two years I left the Public Defender's office and started my own law practice and have been in private practice ever since.

Firm: Johnson Law Group

I turn major roadblocks into minor speed bumps by providing aggressive representation with great results. This helps you move on with your life by being able to put your case behind you. I do this by providing:. • The right focus: I begin every case by focusing on what it will take to win, and then backing it up with action. I am concerned with more than just the pending case, and pride myself on thinking about where your life will be years from now.  • The right experience: With more than 10 years of experience, I have tried numerous cases to judges and juries alike, and have avoided countless years in prison/jail for my clients. Once a case has ended, I have cleared up people's criminal histories, and gotten people back on the road. My success speaks for itself, and. • The right knowledge: being licensed in more than one state, in federal court, and before the U.S. Supreme Court means I have the education, the background, and the familiarity with the law that you need. I put that knowledge to work for my clients, and use it to my clients' advantage.. • The right information: You will always be kept up-to-date, and always fully understand everything about your case. Although the law is complex, speaking with me is not, and you will no longer be confused with or about anything.. • Flexibility on time and cost: I pride myself on being competitive both in and out of the courtroom. That means being available after hours for my clients and being competitive on cost. I always seek to accommodate my clients' schedules, always make hiring me easy, and always work with people to make hiring me possible.. • Being available: feel free to give me a call directly at, by e-mailing me at , or by contacting me through Twitter or Facebook.

Firm: Law Offices of Brian J. Mirandola

I am criminal defense lawyer Brian J. Mirandola. I served as an assistant prosecuting attorney in Kane County for more than seven years, where I prosecuted hundreds of DUI cases and other misdemeanors and felonies. I understand the prosecutor's strategy.. I was also a member of the criminal defense team at a large local law firm for nearly two years, where I learned that handling case files as they land in your in-box is no way to provide effective, honest criminal defense representation. That is why I opened my private solo practice last year.. I started law school with a dream of practicing exclusively in the area of criminal law. It is what I believe being a lawyer is all about — helping people through their time of serious legal need. After nearly a decade, I remain committed to that challenge.
