How Andy Sotiropoulos Fights Your Case
Every DUI arrest has weaknesses. Here's what I look for:
Challenge the Traffic Stop
Police need reasonable suspicion to pull you over. If the stop was illegal, evidence gets suppressed. I review dashcam footage and police reports to find procedural errors.
Attack the Breathalyzer
Breathalyzers require proper calibration and certified operators. Errors are common. I check maintenance records and operator training logs for problems.
Question Field Sobriety Tests
These tests are subjective and unreliable. Medical conditions, road conditions, weather, and nerves all affect results. I challenge the officer's interpretation.
Protect Your License
You have 90 days to request a hearing to save your driving privileges. I file the petition to rescind and fight at the judicial hearing in the circuit court to keep you on the road.
Defend Your Career
I understand IDFPR, FAA, ARDC, and professional licensing boards. I fight not just the criminal charge but the career consequences too.
Negotiate or Go to Trial
I know the prosecutors and judges in DuPage, Lake, Kane, Will, and Kendall counties. I know when to negotiate and when to fight.
Not Sure Which of These Applies to Your Arrest?
Tell me what happened. I review the police reports, dashcam footage and breathalyzer records to find the problems.
