Success Stories

ALL CHARGES DISMISSED IN CRASH CASE!

As Mr. B. was driving home some friends down a Chicago street, a large SUV ran a red light, causing a serious intersection collision. Mr. B.’s sedan was knocked into a wall and he was stunned when his air bags deployed. A few minutes later, he was stunned again to find out that he was the one who was charged with going through a red light and, even worse, DUI. Shortly thereafter, Mr. B. found out that the other driver’s passenger was planning to sue him for damages.

At trial, attorney Harold Wallin’s cross-examination of the other driver and the arresting police officer proved that the other driver had made a left turn into the intersection without looking at oncoming traffic and after Mr. B’s vehicle had already begun to enter the intersection, thus causing the accident. Furthermore, Mr. Wallin successfully argued to the Judge that Mr. B.’s arrest was based upon no evidence showing that his driving had been impaired due to alcohol consumption. The court granted a “directed finding” and dismissed each charge against Mr. B.!
