Our Proven Defense Strategies
We Challenge the Legality of Your Traffic Stop:
Pulled over after being arrested for DUI on I-90/94, Algonquin Road, or Higgins near Rolling Meadows? We insist the state prove a valid traffic violation under 625 ILCS 5/11-501. Without a lawful stop, all evidence collected afterward in your DUI case at Rolling Meadows Courthouse is thrown out.
We Attack Breathalyzer Test Accuracy:
Breath tests often decide a 1st time DUI case. We demand maintenance logs, calibration certificates, and operator training records—and if the device or its user failed Illinois standards, your BAC results can be excluded.
We Scrutinize Blood Collection and Lab Protocols:
Blood evidence can seal your fate. We examine every link in the chain of custody, lab procedures, and storage methods—any procedural break can invalidate the test and strengthen your defense.
We Pinpoint Clerical Errors and Missed Deadlines:
DUI arrests generate mountains of paperwork. One late filing or a single typo in your DUI case at Rolling Meadows Courthouse can be enough for us to suppress evidence—or even secure a dismissal.
We Negotiate to Preserve Your Driving Privileges:
If outright dismissal isn’t possible, our relationships with Rolling Meadows prosecutors allow us to secure restricted driving permits, enroll you in alcohol-education programs, or arrange community-service alternatives—so you can continue to drive.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Where do I go for a Rolling Meadows DUI hearing?
A: Rolling Meadows Courthouse, 2121 Euclid Ave—call (312) 494-3131 for directions.
Q: Will my license be suspended for a first-time DUI arrest?
A: Following a first‐time DUI arrest in Illinois, your driver’s license faces an automatic Statutory Summary Suspension of 6 to 12 months under 625 ILCS 5/11-501. For repeat DUI arrests, the suspension term increases substantially. The exact duration hinges on whether you refused a chemical test—resulting in a 12-month suspension—or registered a BAC of 0.08% or higher (or tested positive for controlled substances). After your DUI arrest, the Illinois Secretary of State issues a Notice of Statutory Summary Suspension that specifies the suspension period, which takes effect 46 days after the arrest.
Q: Can I challenge the suspension of my license after a DUI arrest?
A: Absolutely. You have 90 days from your DUI arrest to file a Petition to Rescind the Statutory Summary Suspension under 625 ILCS 5/2-118.1. This triggers an administrative hearing where you can contest the suspension on grounds such as lack of probable cause or faulty testing procedures. Fabbrini Law Group routinely secures successful outcomes at these hearings, keeping clients on the road despite a DUI arrest.
Q: If my license is suspended after a DUI arrest, can I still drive to work?
A: Yes. Fabbrini Law Group will obtain a Monitoring Device Driving Permit (MDDP) on your behalf, granting restricted driving privileges during your suspension. You’ll install a BAIID (Breath Alcohol Ignition Interlock Device) in your vehicle, which functions as an onboard breathalyzer. With an MDDP, you can legally commute to work, school, or medical appointments even after a DUI arrest triggers your license 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.
