Experienced Bloomingdale DUI Attorney to Defend Your Rights

Protect Your Right to Drive and Your Freedom

Without a qualified DUI defense attorney to represent your rights, you are likely to have the maximum penalty for DUI thrown at you. This can include jail time, license suspension, high fines and skyrocketing insurance premiums. It is worth it to retain the legal counsel of experienced lawyers such as those at the law office of Peter Buh.

Former Prosecutors Knowledgeable of Both Sides of the System

Peter Buh served as an assistant state attorney. He prosecuted traffic, misdemeanor, and felony cases during his employment with the State Attorney's office. This includes DUI cases, both felony and misdemeanor.

Fight and Win Cases Involving Drunk Driving Charges

We know the tactics that prosecutors use to convict the accused. We also know how to find the loopholes in the prosecution's case. We thoroughly investigate your driving while intoxicated charge and all the facts leading up to your arrest.

We question every aspect of the police record. You would be surprised at what is left out of the record and what is included that may not be the full truth. We question whether the stop was lawful and whether the sobriety test was too subjective. In short, depending on your specific situation, we will seek every potential avenue to your case dismissal.

We encourage you to call The Law Offices of Peter Buh to discuss your DUI charges and your legal concerns. In a free consultation you can learn about legal strategies and legal options for seeking a successful resolution. Contact your local Blommingdale DUI Attorney.

No refusal weekend in Kane County

Kane County State’s Attorney Joe McMahon is holding another “no refusal” holiday weekend to combat drunk driving.

According to a press release issued this week, his office will collaborate with multiple Kane County municipalities to crack down on impaired drivers on New Year’s Eve.

The sixth “No Refusal” operation conducted in Kane County will be the first by McMahon and the first in the county on New Year’s Eve. It also will follow U.S. Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood’s call for more states to use the strategy to help diminish drunken driving.

“Drunken driving is an unnecessary hazard on our roadways that often ends with tragic results,” McMahon said in the press release. “As state’s attorney, I have a responsibility not only to prosecute DUI offenders, but also to educate the public not to drive when they drink.

“Publicity of past no-refusal operations has been successful in reducing the number of drunken drivers on our roadways, and it is my hope that we can continue to get would-be DUI offenders to think twice before driving.

“With that in mind, I am only announcing when we will have the no-refusal operation. I will not say which municipalities will be working with us. For further information, contact your Kane County DUI Attorney.
