What extra Illinois DUI lawyer costs might I have to deal with?

Princeton

EXCELLENT QUESTION.

Many people factor in, obviously, the flat fee when they are budgeting for a lawyer without realizing that there are additional Illinois DUI lawyer costs. Here are some that you may need to be aware of.

• fees for printing, faxing, etc., and employing those who do this
• for hiring someone to take down testimonials and interviews in shorthand
• for delivering legal paperwork to witnesses
• for costs of travel
• for investigation
• for court filing and related fees
• for jury, if so requested
• for witnesses
• for consultation

Rather than just jump in the water with all your clothes on, discuss all of the potential Illinois DUI lawyer costs at your very first meeting so that you can decide which ones might be necessary in your case, which ones you can avoid, and whether the amount your lawyer charges for such fees is worth keeping them.
