Citation ticket dismissed

I was involved in a terrible car accident in late 2022. Thankfully nobody was seriously injured but was issued a citation. I was referred to Savri Vako and after our first phone conversation and meeting in person I knew he was the right person to hire as my attorney. As someone who has never been i...ssued a citation with a car accident, I wasn't sure what to expect. When I met with Stavri, he explained the process, my best options, likely outcomes, and took time to ensure my many questions were answered. We met again just prior to my court date to ensure I was fully prepared, and I'm very happy with the positive outcome from the court. Thank you Stavri!

I would NOT recommend Stavri Vako

I would not recommend Stavri Vako and I am considering filing a complaint with the Illinois Bar Association. I have an excellent driving record and recently received a minor speeding ticket. I believe the officer’s radar captured the vehicle that was passing me, not my car. We both had similar black... SUVs. I wanted to fight the ticket. I contacted three attorneys. The first two told me to save the legal fees, go to court and ask for supervision. Both said this was standard and, with my word against the officers, the court usually sides with the officer. Mr. Vako told me he could get the charge dismissed, so I hired him. On the day of court, I learned that I was already found guilty a week prior to my court date. Apparently, Mr. Vako never told me of the prior court date. It took several hours to get a new court time and it appeared Vako was making the Judge angry when he told him he “Fixed” the prior guilty verdict. Because I (or my attorney Vako) did not show up in court, the first time, I learned my license can now be suspended. Vako told me to watch for a letter from the Illinois Secretary of State suspending my license.

The man for the job!

I had never received a traffic violation in my whole life, so when I received 6 tickets for my first offense from the officer, I was shocked. Stavri Vako not only handled my case in a timely and personal manner, but also answered any questions or concerns I had regarding my case. The level of trust I... put in his abilities was a reflection of his work ethic and determination to get me the best results possible in my case. I would highly recommend him as your attorney if you want the best results.

DUI Not Guilty

First class all the way, I was arrested for DUI and was very stressful and Mr Vako reassured me and was very calming about my worries going through the court process. He is the real deal and is very good at what he does.
