Michael S O'Meara

My drivi ng privileges were in jeopardy of being revoked due to a Chicago Police officers mistakes. My case went to trial and we won. I was falsely accused of being in an accident and DUI. I was innocent and Mike presented evidence to the court proving my innocence. The arresting police office fille...d out the tickets incorrectly and falsely checked the box that I was in an accident that caused harm. Mike thanks again for being an awesome Attorney. Edward H.

On a late Chicago summer evening, I was charged with illegal lane usage, driving below the minimum speed limit, and driving under the influence. I was facing serious jail time if convicted since I had 2 previous DUI arrests. Prior to calling Mr. O’Meara I did my research as any other person in m...y situation should do. After extensive hours of research not only for an attorney but what I should do to prepare myself for the months to come; I came across Michael O’Meara who has been practicing law since 1994. I read about his background and noticed that he was a former prosecutor which was a huge plus. I hired Mr. O’Meara and he proceeded to tell me my options. He was honest and to the point. Everything that Mr. O’Meara stated was going to happen…happened. On the day of my trial Mr. O’Meara put on a poetic show. His years of experience and knowledge were quickly observed by the entire courtroom. His objections, cross examination of the trooper, and rebuttals were flawless. Mr. O’Meara won that day, and that is the day I started living again… I highly recommend Michael O’Meara. He is professional, experienced, doesn’t treat you like a lesser person, and personally replies to messages. I must add and remind everyone that as a client you have to do your part as well. Everything helps - from the way you dress, the way your demeanor is in court, being punctual to all appointments, and ensuring you do your part and get everything in order prior to a trial or hearing helps. Thanks again Michael… Regards, -RM

Michael O'Meara is the most professional attorney I've ever worked with. It is very difficult to admit, but this was my third DUI, and you can image the stress, the shame, the uncertainty I felt after it happened. Although my last one happened sixteen years ago, a third one, if convicted, can be a ve...ry serious offense that can take away your family, your freedom, your livelihood, and it can lead to a felony which can eventually lead to inability to find employment after all is done. So you can imagine that finding the right attorney becomes a challenge. There are a lot of attorneys that claim they specialize in DUI defense and many of those are what we call "A Jack of All Trades but a Master of None." They'll take your money and you'll end up in jail. Those are the attorneys that you definitely want to avoid. Michael O'Meara was referred to me by a friend that hired Michael to defend his second DUI, and the reason I decided to go with Michael is because not only did he win his case, he got his license back. When I first called Michael he explained everything to me, the circumstances of a third DUI, and all the possible outcomes and worst case scenarios of what can potentially happen if you don't hire the right attorney. During the entire conversation, Michael was professional, kind and patient, and took his time to answer all of my questions. Michael has been a DUI attorney for over two decades, and in the early stages of his career he was the state of Illinois DUI prosecutor so he's been on both sides of the law. I decided right away that he was the attorney for my situation and that DUI law is his specialty. Throughout the entire case from finish to end he was nothing less than professional. He exceeded my expectations. He looked at my evidence, he prepared a defense and we took it to trial. Not only did he win the case for me, meaning it was dismissed, he also got my license back. After seeing him in action in the courtroom during my trial I gave him the nickname, Michael "Bruce Lee" O'Meara or even MOJO ;) I highly recommend him as a DUI attorney, and especially to someone who has more than one DUI offense on their record. Michael, thank you so much for what you've done for me. This entire experience was scary, but it sure was an awakening and you've made it possible for me to move on with my life without any repercussions, and learn from this horrific incident. The best defense in a DUI is not to get in a car while intoxicated. However, if you've already made a bad decision and you're looking for an attorney that will give you the best possible outcome, call Michael "Bruce Lee" O'Meara right now!
