Mike O'Meara is our family's hero. Our son was from out of state and got himself in serious legal trouble in Chicago. I had never been to Chicago and was clueless about how to proceed. I called Mike based on other reviews I had read. He talked me off the ledge and walked our family through the legal ...process. He was able to obtain the best possible outcome for our son and was worth every darned penny. Mike literally helped my son get a second chance at life. I cannot thank him enough. Our family highly recommends Mike O'Meara!

I contacted and hired Michael O'Meara over one year ago. I was pulled over and charged with a DUI which had severe implications for my current and potential future careers. He worked hard behind the scenes while keeping constant communication all while providing realistic expectations for all of the... possible outcomes. All in all, I was more than satisfied with the outcome of supervision on a reckless driving charge considering all that was on the line. If anyone were in my situation, I would recommend 100% that they hire Michael as their representation.

Mike is both an excellent lawyer and excellent person. I called him after being charged with a DUI for failure to blow. He was as professional and informative all throughout the entire process. Any time I had a question or concern he would respond very quickly to a call or text. I can’t stress eno...ugh how grateful I am that he was able to get my case resolved in a manner where I was not charged with a DUI. Even though the case is over and he no longer repreeents me he has made it clear that I can contact him at any time should I need any assistance. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Mike O’Meara to anyone that needs representation.

If you're reading this right now, chances are that you're unfortunately doing your research on deciding which lawyer should represent you with driving under the influence. It's a nightmare. As someone with a prior DUI, and a laundry list of other citations and arrests, I was sure that my life and ...career were over with getting a second DUI. I know that Michael O'Meara is the lawyer you need to hire if you want the best possible outcome. Here is my story: Late one night I was out with a friend in Glen Ellen of DuPage County. I had some drinks and got behind the wheel of my car. I made a poor decision, thinking nobody was watching me, but sure enough Mr. Law was sitting blocks away. Of course I got pulled over and asked to perform a sobriety test. The police officer made his decision that I was intoxicated and he asked me to take a breathalyzer. I refused. Handcuffed...car towed...my life was turned upside down. The day after my arrest I was googling non-stop of what was going to happen to me. I was losing my mind. Since I had a DUI 10 years prior I knew I just turned down a long road and there was no turning back. So, first things first, get a lawyer. I was not happy with the lawyer on my first DUI case 10 years ago when I was 18. 28 years old now, and a job that requires a license, my livelihood and career were completely at stake with little options to fall back on. After researching for a top qualified lawyer with a history in prosecution, I found Mike"s website. I was on the phone with him that day (Sunday) probably within an hour after emailing. He never once tried selling me promises that some of these scam artist lawyers do, and that really stuck out with me. He was very empathetic and compassionate to me over the phone. Completely professional. A quick little piece of advice he told me was to STOP GOOGLING! Everyone's situation is different and that constantly obsessing over this would drive me crazy. He was right. SO, long story short...not only did I need to get the DUI dropped down to reckless driving, I NEEDED to get my license rescinded to to avoid the suspension from not breathalyzing. All a complete long shot for someone who has a prior DUI. Mike not only got the prosecutor to rescind my suspended license, but he successfully got my DUI dropped down to a reckless driving. His strategy was flawless, and he played my cards perfectly. The only luck that came out of this entire ordeal was me finding Mike O'Meara online in the first place. I fully recommend his services to my friends, my family and to whoever is reading this and trying to decide on a lawyer.

So I was in court when I saw Mike representing another client. At the time I didnt have a lawyer and was currently looking for one, saw how he would give his all in court for his client to best defend them. And thats when I went up to him to ask for his business card, funny how he didnt have one and ...just wrote his number quickly on a piece of paper and then hired him soon after meeting with him. He was great in communicating with me about my case and about what are strategy would be in trial. I had 2 prior DUI convictions and this would have been my 3rd. When we went to trial I was so nervous and I already felt that 3rd conviction coming but once Mike started speaking on my behalf I could sense the tables slowly but surely turning in my favor. To my surprise I was found not guilty even though alot was not in my favor but Mikes determination and confidence in fighting for my innocence gave me a verdict in my favor and free from conviction. I cant thank Mike enough for all he did and I will highly recommend anyone and everyone to hire this man if in need of a lawyer. You will not regret it I guarantee you!!
