If you face criminal charges or have a real estate concern in Illinois, our elite team is here to help you find the right path forward. If you have been charged with a crime in Illinois, our attorneys are here to stand up for your rights. We provide strong, effective criminal defense representation to clients in McHenry, Cook, Kane, DuPage, Lake, DeKalb, Boone, Winnebago, Kendall, Ogle and Will counties and throughout Northern Illinois.

Our criminal defense lawyers never give in when our clients' rights are on the line. While we are skilled negotiators who maintain strong relationships with judges, clerks and prosecutors, we are also formidable trial advocates who never back down from a fight. Our clients benefit from our team approach to criminal defense.
Services
Our skilled attorneys have decades of combined experience providing representation to clients with criminal defense, real estate or bankruptcy concerns. With law offices in Elgin, McHenry, Rockford, and Palatine we are able to serve clients in Cook County and McHenry and Kane counties as well as throughout Northern Illinois.
If you have been accused of committing a crime in Illinois, it is important to talk to an experienced defense lawyer as soon as possible. Anything you say to the police can be used against you. Our experienced team of criminal defense lawyers can help you understand your rights and options and the strength of the case against you.
Alleged victims of domestic violence often obtain orders of protection, which impose strict limitations on the accused. Orders of protection can prohibit a person from entering your home and having contact with the alleged victim. They can even prohibit you from having contact with your own children.
A past criminal charge can hamper you in many ways, from your ability to find employment to your chances of obtaining a professional license or getting into the school of your choice. Illinois expungement laws allow a person to have their record cleared, so they are no longer held back by an event from the past.
If your Illinois driver's license has been revoked for any reason, the attorneys, are here to help you get it back. We have helped hundreds of clients get their licenses reinstated after DUIs and traffic violations and criminal law matters of all kinds. A person seeking reinstatement of their driver's license must apply for a formal or informal hearing before the secretary of state.

Todd Cohen is the best! Very attentive, nice, and my case turned out better than I could’ve hoped for! Todd fought for my best interest and won, not only the dui got dismissed but even before my case was closed he won my license back. He is definitely worth every penny. I highly recommend him, you will not be disappointed.

Elizabeth was beyond helpful. I was in tough position with my case and financially and she worked with me without hesitation. She was very quick to respond if I had any questions during the entire process. She kept me informed on what she was doing and all updates with my case. Elizabeth was able to help me get a resolution with my case that I was more than happy with. I wouldn’t recommend any other firm than this one.

Kelley was amazing to work with! We were first time home buyers and she walked us through every step. When we had issues with the other side she was there to figure it out for us without us having to worry about it. 10/10 would recommend. She was also very responsive.

Todd Cohen connected my wife and me with Emi to represent us through our first home buying experience and we could not be more pleased with the results and process. Emi efficiently reviewed our contract and coordinated all of the negotiations - we were able to get the seller to complete all our requests with her help! Kelley was the attorney for our closing, and she walked us through all the signing documents, and clarified items in easy to understand terms. Despite the COVID-19 situation and the closing occurring remotely, Kelley did a great job in facilitating. Everyone was extremely efficient

Kelley Flinn was recently my real estate attorney during the closing on a home that myself and my children have waited to be able to purchase for a long time. I could not have asked for a better experience! She explained everything so that I was in full understanding. She was professional, attentive, and efficient. I would highly recommend this firm, and especially Kelley.
