About Daniel
Biography
Dan Cummings is a Chicagoland criminal defense attorney. For 30 years, Dan has represented the criminally accused throughout the Chicagoland area.
Most of Dan's clients are largely unfamiliar with the criminal justice system. Dan Cummings bridges this information gap by communicating to clients the charges levied upon them, the possible penalties, other consequences (such as driving privileges and immigration issues), as well as the various options to resolve their case in the most favorable manner for that individual client.
Considering the virtually unlimited resources of the Government in prosecuting the accused, it's essential that a person facing serious criminal charges contacts an experienced criminal defense attorney as soon as possible. Investigating police officers and the States Attorneys' Office start putting together their case from the moment an arrest is made, if not earlier.
Dan Cummings has the skill, creativity, and experience to help you with your criminal case. He has handled some of the most highly publicized and notorious cases in the State of Illinois. In his career, he has conducted nearly 500 trials. He specializes in serious felonies, DUI's, traffic violations, criminal appeals, Secretary of State hearings, license restoration, misdemeanors and expungements.
If have a problem that you believe may require criminal defense representation, feel free to contact Dan Cummings for a free consultation to discuss your case.

Daniel P. Cummings's Lawyer Endorsements
"I had the opportunity to work with Dan on a high profile FCC communications interference matter. He is a highly skilled attorney with an excellent ability to communicate the ins-and-outs of the criminal justice system with his clients and guide them to their best option."
"I have worked with Dan on several cases, both as a law clerk for him and as co-counsel in a highly publicized public transit case. In each case, Dan has displayed the creativity and expertise necessary to best suit his client's interest. Equally important, Dan is an excellent communicator - with his clients, juries, opposing counsel, and judges. If a client did not understand something about his or her case, whether it's a possible penalty, auxiliary consequence or anything else, Dan would explain (in terms the client could understand) exactly what was happening and what the effects would be. If someone I knew was facing criminal charges, I would recommend talking with Dan before doing anything else."
