Legutki, John C.

My name is John Legutki, and I am a criminal defense attorney serving clients throughout the Chicago area. I have more than 20 years of experience in defending clients who were accused of crimes. Over this time, I have helped thousands of them to fight their charges and turn their lives toward more promising futures.

I have been a practicing attorney in Illinois since 1983 and understand the laws and procedures to assist you with the Secretary of State administrative hearing process. As a Cook County Assistant State’s Attorney, I prosecuted driving under the influence of alcohol (DUI) cases and other criminal offenses. I also served as both a prosecutor and a Hearing Officer for the Illinois Secretary of State, with the Department of Administrative Hearings.

Currently I practice in both state and federal courts. I am a member of the federal trial bar for the United States District Court, the Seventh Circuit Court of Appeals and an approved member of the Federal Defender Panel. I understand that everyone makes mistakes, and that everyone who is accused of a crime deserves a good criminal defense. My experience and expertise can help you get your life back on track.

Whether you face federal or State criminal charges, or need to reinstate your driver's license, I can help you achieve the best possible outcome. Please call me today for a consultation so I can access your situation and show you how I can help.
