Our Proven Defense Strategies for DUI cases at Maywood Courthouse

  1. Validating traffic stops under 625 ILCS 5/11-501; we scrutinize every detail of how and why you were pulled over to ensure the stop met Illinois DUI standards—throwing out evidence from unlawful stops.
  1. Chain-of-custody scrutiny for blood sample handling; we track your blood draw from the moment it was taken through lab processing, exposing any breaks that could invalidate toxicology results.
  1. Motion practice to suppress evidence from rights violations; when officers skip Miranda warnings, conduct warrantless searches, or mishandle paperwork, we file precise motions to exclude tainted evidence.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Where is Maywood DUI court held?

A: Maywood Courthouse, 1500 Maybrook Dr, Maywood, IL.

Q: Will my license be suspended for a first-time DUI arrest at Maywood Courthouse?

A: Yes. After a first‐time DUI arrest processed at the Maywood Courthouse (District 4), Illinois law imposes a Statutory Summary Suspension of 6 to 12 months under 625 ILCS 5/11-501. Repeat DUI arrests carry even longer suspensions. The exact term depends on whether you refused chemical testing—triggering a 12-month suspension—or recorded a BAC ≥ 0.08% (or tested positive for drugs). Within days of your DUI arrest, the Secretary of State will mail you a Notice of Statutory Summary Suspension specifying the effective suspension date, which begins 46 days after arrest.

Q: Can I fight the suspension of my license after DUI arrests handled in Maywood Courthouse?

A: Absolutely. You have 90 days from the date of your DUI arrest at the Maywood Courthouse to file a Petition to Rescind Statutory Summary Suspension under 625 ILCS 5/2-118.1. This administrative procedure grants a hearing where you can challenge grounds such as lack of probable cause, improper test administration, or equipment malfunctions. Fabbrini Law Group specializes in these petitions and routinely overturns summary suspensions for clients facing DUI arrests in Maywood.

Q: If my license is suspended after a DUI arrest at Maywood Courthouse, can I still drive to work?

A: Yes. We will secure a Monitoring Device Driving Permit (MDDP) so you may legally commute during your suspension.

Fabbrini Law Group’s DUI attorneys’ reviews

Jim Fabbrini saved my husband’s license. After his second DUI we were worried that he would lose his license and not be able to work. Jim was able to have the charges lessened and keep my husband driving! He knows his way around a court room. He is a straightforward guy and tells you like it is. He fights hard for his clients for a fair price.”

Jim got a major case for me dismissed 100% on a technicality at trial!!! I have worked with some of the best lawyers in IL, and the Fabbrini law group trumps them all! Most lawyers do ZERO work and plead out to the best deal. Not Jim, there never even was an offer because we went straight to trial. Jim and Camby are excellent litigators and actually worked on my case. I was shown case law and everything they did every step of the way. 100% transparent communication. They went above and beyond for a fair price and didn’t charge more for trial for a case from 5/20/13. Highly recommended.
– Andrew 

This is an exceptional law firm. I used this law firm to represent my case. This law firm was recommended by me from a friend by the name of Jay. About a year and a half had gone by after I get pulled over for a DUI among other citations. This would consist of me going through court in and out, constantly everyday for a DUI ticket I was wrongly accused for among other tickets. Now this really gets in the way of work. Now the court process is always a drag, but with Fabbrini lawyer Group/law Firm made everything so easy! They were there all the way and helped me step by step of the way and ensuring I understood my options and all my choices very well and are very flexible. They are not like other law firms that just look for you in your pockets for money. They are very professional and always look out for the best for their clients.
