Rating: 10 Lawyer Rating - 10 out of 10
I give David Freidberg a top rating as a criminal attorney in Chicago and Cook County. As a fellow lawyer and a competitor of David, I often get calls from prospective clients who are looking for a criminal defense attorney. It is common that a person will call and tell me they are trying to decide between David and myself. I of course hope to earn the business but I always have to tell prospective clients that you can't go wrong with David. He will work hard for his clients to get results.

Legal Answers
9 Questions Answered
Q. 19 old daughter arrested for battery and misconduct. But she didn't physically touch the person. What will happen in crt
A: If the complaining witness (victim) appears in court, then your attorney can ask for an offer from the State's Attorney so as to avoid a trial. That offer can range from court supervision to probation to jail time for up to 364 days. If you opt not to plea guilty, then the matter will be set for trial.
Q. if I was ticketed for possession of less than 1g cannabis and a pipe and asked to appear in court ,would i need a lawyer
A: Absolutely. Even though this is a small amount of cannabis, you still face jail time upon conviction. You need an attorney to attempt to get the charge dismissed against you and avoid a conviction on your record.
Q. Does a domestic battery warrant follow you out of state?
A: Any warrant will follow you out of state.
