DuPage County Criminal Defense Lawyer

Our firm has two offices, one in the Loop and one in Oak Brook Terrace in DuPage County. While our firm handles all types of misdemeanor and felony charges, we have particular experience representing those facing the most serious of charges such as drug conspiracy, sex crimes and murder/homicide. Hiring experienced legal counsel is never more important than when confronting the often aggressive prosecution of such cases, many of which carry mandatory sentences.

Attorney Richard Dvorak provides the sophisticated yet fierce advocacy these cases require. He aggressively seeks the best outcome possible that protects clients' rights, interests and reputations.

When appropriate, Mr. Dvorak can also get you financial compensation, via the filing of a civil rights action, for any violation of your civil rights that may have occurred as a result of a false arrest or malicious prosecution, especially in instances where an officer or officers may have used excessive force during the arrest. Not many attorneys have the experience and knowledge to both defend you against false criminal charges, and also successfully sue the police for their misconduct once the outcome of the criminal case has turned out in your favor. Attorney Dvorak has that unique experience and knowledge.

In addition to providing skilled representation in criminal trials, lawyer Richard Dvorak has extensive experience advocating for clients in state and federal criminal appeals, post-conviction petitions, federal habeas corpus petitions, and governor's pardons and commutations.
