Richard F. Doerr: Testimonials

<< back to Richard Doerr's profile

2009 –Successfully defended an attempt by the a State’s Attorney to forfeit the motor vehicle of a party charged with a DUI. The State tried to do this in spite of the fact the party was a first time DUI offender and had received Court Supervision. The vehicle was the only means for the client to travel to Chicago for her job.  As a result of Mr. Doerr’s outstanding efforts, the client was able to keep her car.

2009 – Mr. Doerr’s years of criminal defense experience was critical in helping a client who was charged with his second DUI.  Mr. Doerr was able to keep his client from getting a DUI conviction (even though this was a second offense DUI).  Mr. Doerr was successful in 1) getting the second DUI charge amended to reckless driving and 2) having the summary suspension vacated which allowed the client to not only avoid the in-car breathalyzer machine but also avoided the client’s driver’s license from being suspended for a year.

2006 & 2007 – At trial, Mr. Doerr successfully defended 2 different drag racing charges by obtaining Not Guilty after bench trial. In these cases, convictions would have resulted in the revocation of the party’s driver’s license.
