Attorney Franks has the necessary reputation, knowledge and experience to not only competently defend a citizen accused, but rather to aggressively and successfully do so. I can personally attest that he remains on the cutting edge of the law, of the forensic science and of trial advocacy skills. He uses all of these to maximize the chances of obtaining an acceptable result for those who trust him with their case. At the end of the analysis, you, as a potential new client, would do well to not simply call him, but to retain him, listen to him and trust him. It might just be the best decision you have made-ever.

David is a fellow attorney who I have referred many clients to. They have been thrilled with his personal attention and hard work on their behalf. David is one of the few attorneys that, in my 23 years, I have seen who were so willing to invest ALL of their energy into one goal: winning DUI cases. If you have a need for a DUI attorney in McHenry or Lake County, call David Franks. He has served as the chair of the Illinois State Bar Traffic Law Committee, which is one of the highest positions someone in DUI defense can obtain. He just received intensive training in blood alcohol testing, and is unmatched in that regard in Illinois. Call David Franks now.
