Michael T. Norris and John W. Callahan work hard for our clients, especially where other lawyers leave you hanging. Illinois DUI law mandates that 46 days after a person is arrested for DUI, their license will automatically be suspended for between three months to three years, if nothing is done to prevent this. Immediately upon being retained, Michael T. Norris and John W. Callahan file appropriate motions and pleadings for our clients to prevent the summary suspension from ever taking effect. Most lawyers wait until the first court date to make their move and by then it's too late. These motions prevent the Secretary of State from automatically suspending our clients' licenses. Quite often, in prevailing on the motion to rescind the summary suspension, the State's entire criminal case falls apart and the criminal DUI charges are dismissed – all because of DUI attorneys John W. Callahan and Michael T. Norris.

Do you know that in Illinois, you are not required to submit to Standardized Field Sobriety testing? Most defendants are under the assumption that they were required to submit to these tests. We fight against that intimidation in court. We use the training manual for DUI Field Testing against the officers to beat the DUI. If the tests were performed improperly, criminal DUI lawyers Michael T. Norris and John W. Callahan use the teacher's manual for the DUI field-testing course to cross examine the police officer and turn the State’s own evidence against them.

If a client blows over a .08, it does not necessarily mean that he will receive a DUI conviction. From fighting the legality of the stop to retaining experts who will fight the blow or blood draw, our techniques have resulted in multiple acquittals with blood alcohol content allegedly over .08. Don’t give up just because you blew over the legal limit. If you think the breathalyzer reading was incorrect or flawed, you may be right and attorneys Mike Norris and John Callahan can help you prove it.

John W. Callahan and Michael T. Norris also represent clients charged with speeding, reckless driving, drag racing, multiple speeding tickets or other traffic violations.
