Aggressive, compassionate, and knowledgeable attorney

Sal, very professional, personable and dedicated to my case. I came in worried and looking for advice in a situation I felt I couldn't take on alone. After meeting him he made me at ease about what to say and do to be best prepared for court. I'd highly recommend him to anyone who needs help in succe...ssfully winning their case.

Downtown Public Urination Ticket

Sal was knowledgeable/confident within this area of the City Code, and managed to get to my case knocked down to a lesser citation. Background: I was charged with a 'misdemeanor crime' after taking a leak behind a dumpster in a dark, empty alley in the middle of the night. In my hometown, we'd give s...omeone a high-five for even having the courage to enter said-alley, but Chicago is hurting for funds (cite: the news) and so they are using young patrol officers to sneak around in the dark to find easy mone- oops I mean "criminals." I also saw them arrest several other guys later for basically being outside while drunk. This is an unfortunate police tactic that will deter tourism, much like other cute moves such as leasing a federal road project (I-90) to foreign toll investors for $1.83 billion. Got to love those politics.

Attorney Sal Helped me with a speeding ticket that was a misdemenaor

I was a college student and would usually take the METRA to school, however on this specific day I was late for a midterm exam. I did not have enough time to take METRA and borrowed my roommates car to drive to class. While driving on the expressway I was pulled over by the police for speeding. I was... an international student and had only an expired Illinois Drivers permit and no insurance. The officer let me go to class but gave me tickets for no copies of my license and insurance and speeding. Well it turns out the speeding ticket is a Misdemeanor Charge! WHAT? I hired Sal and he handled the situation for me. My court date was at the traffic courthouse in Mundelein.
