This page lists 12 criminal defence attorneys practising in Chicago. Between them they cover misdemeanours, felony charges, drug and firearms cases, probation violations, expungements and post-conviction work.
Local experience matters more here than in almost any other practice area. Charging habits, diversion programmes and plea practice differ from one courthouse to the next, so it is worth asking each attorney how often they appear in the court handling your case.
If you have been arrested, the first days matter most. Get advice before speaking to investigators, and ask for the fee to be quoted by stage — pre-trial, trial, appeal — in writing.

The same practice elsewhere in Illinois: Wheaton (16), Bloomington (13) and Peoria (9).
