Illinois DUI law is complex, and your defense should be handled by an Illinois DUI lawyer who is expert in DUI defense.  While DUI law is consistent throughout the state of Illinois, each county court may have different procedures for DUI or drunk driving . 

A Chicago DUI case, or any Cook County DUI case, proceeds differently than a DUI in Lake county or DuPage county.  Suspended drivers license issues are also handled differently.  Missing the subtle differences can mean missing opportunities to protect you and your drivers license.  Your Illinois dui lawyer must be aware of these details, because not knowing is devastating.
