Paul B. Wharton

I recently was pulled over for driving on a revoked license & no seat belt in Lake County. While on probation. I was absolutely sick to my stomach & Affraid. I called a good friend of mine and explained what happened to me. He told me to call Paul. So i did. When Paul answered and spoke to me. I was... instantly relieved. His demeanor proffesional manner & knowledge was like no other lawyer i have used before. We went to court on the first appearance. He showed how great he trully is. He got the seat belt ticket thrown out. He got my driving on revoked reduced down. Probation terminated and a meger fine with supervision. . I really thought i was going to jail. Witch was Scary & Financially devestating to my family. But thanks to some good advice from a friend and a true pro like Paul. Things worked out well. If i remember correctly during my first phone conversation with Paul he reassured me that it would. God Bless You Paul. Million Stars. Bryan Edmiston People please do your mental health a favor and pick up the phone and call this man. Paul will put you at ease.

I have known Paul for over 15 years! He is a bulldog in the courtroom and a friend outside. Where most lawyers fall short in the empathy department, Paul does not. He just doesn't take a case, he feels that case. In other words, Paul's relationship with his client's do not stop at the dotted line, it... continues day or night. Ask my son who Paul represented mere days ago on a drop of a dime when I called him when my son was arrested. Paul was there in a heartbeat not only consoling me but worked his years of experience where my son came home and got the best deal ever that gave my son a second chance. When my son's hearing was over he talked to my son about his actions and long term consequences of them and at the end handed over his number to my son and said "if you need anything, anything...you call me" even when the case was over and Paul could have just left. Paul first represented me years ago and then my husband and now my son and believe you me I would not call anyone that only cared about the buck and entrust them not only with me but my whole family. We now joke how he became our family lawyer with all of our mishaps but you know what, life happens and if it's going to happen I best be sure I have a kick a** attorney on my/our side and that's exactly who you will get when you hire Paul Wharton. Bottom Line: When life happens, hire Paul Wharton!

After hiring couple other attorneys and fighting a D.U.I case, driving with a suspended lisence with possession of cannavis and 2 other traffic tickets things were not going no where. At that time I thought my life was ruined for ever and would never succeed in life till I found Mr.Wharton. Went ove...r his office with no hopes at all and after he reviewed my cases and had a word with him he did not promise me anything but what he did said to me was NOT TO WORRY THAT HE WOULD GET ME OUT OF THIS which made me feel a lot better because he sounded so sure about what he was saying and for the first time after two years I felt safe, I felt like I was in good hands and after our first court I started seeing changes and today I still cant believe my driver license is in my wallet like he told me.. My family is very happy and thankful for what this man has done. I would highly recomend him to my friends and you if your having issues like mine. HE GOT THE JOB DONE LIKE HE SAID.

About 6 months ago I received a DUI driving back from "the Tap room" in Chicago to Gurnee on I-94. I was going a 105mph in my BMW and got a ticket for that as well as the failed breath test. I blew a .096 at the station and they charged me with 3 misdemeanors related to it and the speeding. Needle...ss to say, I thought my life was over and I was very stressed out! I picked Paul as my lawyer after reading a few different reviews on the web and I feel it was the best choice I could have possibly made! Paul was able to extend the case several times until the speeding ticket was dropped and a plea agreement was made. The prosecutor did not want to drop the high speed ticket and Paul jumped though hoops by extending the case over and over until he managed to persuade the prosecutor to drop the misdemeanor to a fine. In total, I ended up only getting supervision with classes and fines. With the completion of supervision there will be no conviction!! The fines were approximately $2900 payable over a year, which I'm happy to do instead of getting a conviction. The way a supervision works is as follows. If you get court supervision for a DUI charge, the conviction will not be entered immediately. Instead the court will “supervise” you for a period of time, typically one year, after which the charge will be dismissed without a conviction. As long as you successfully complete the supervision period, the charge is dismissed. I would like to say that Paul has great character! He is a very like-able person. I really believe Paul is doing his job as a DUI Lawyer to help people out. If you've gotten a DUI, keep your head up and go see Paul. He will assure you that everything will be ok. Your life is not over as I thought mine was!

Paul's knowledge and professionalism helped me in a very difficult time in my life. Not only did he take the time to talk with me but I really felt I could trust him and he fought for me and for what was really the truth about my case. He is a great Lawyer and everything worked out just how it shoul...d have. Very satisfied and thankful for all he did for me.
