William H. Wise - Former Judge. 40 Years of Experience
Howard J. Wise - Former Prosecutor. 9 years of Experience
At the Law Offices of William H. Wise & Associates, our aggressive criminal defense trial attorneys are driven to defend the rights of clients in all Illinois courts and U.S. federal courts. We help our clients who are accused of serious crimes throughout all aspects of the justice system, including:
- Police Investigations
- Arrests
- Grand Jury Indictments
- Plea Bargains
- Trials
- Jury Trials
- Sentencing
Our Firm consists of former criminal prosecutors and a former Criminal Circuit Court Judge who have handled thousands of criminal cases throughout their careers. We appear regularly in all the Cook County courtrooms as well as courtrooms in other surrounding areas such as DuPage, Lake, and Kane Counties. We know how the system works and can help you defend your case. An aggressive defense of your case typically starts early in the proceedings. A lawyer may file motions to challenge the arrest, suppress evidence or otherwise confront weaknesses in the prosecution's case. These motions are typically resolved prior to trial and, if successful, may result in the case being dismissed.
We represent individuals who have been arrested and accused of all types of felonies and misdemeanors, including murder, sex offenses, drug crimes, UUW's, armed robbery, theft, retail theft, battery, residential burglary, DUI, traffic violations, domestic battery, and many others criminal offenses.
