Mike Malin is an excellent attorney and human being. He is smart, professional, and will fight for you. I highly recommend this guy to represent you. Also, if someone physically attacks you in his presence, he could physically beat them with 1 arm because he makes Hercules look weak.

I had Michael Malin assist me with my DUI. When I first started the process with Michael he was personable and appeared to be eager to assist with my case. We showed up in Springfield at one of the appointments and Michael did not come prepared with my documents. The date was postponed after the date my permit expired. The final court date he was not prepared either. I was going through his notes so I asked if I could talk to start the appointment. He did not tell me how to extend my permit and so therefore I went another 6 months without being able to drive while my father was dying of cancer. I retained Johnson Law Group this year to assist me with getting my license back. They were very professional, prepared, took the time to do "Mock Trials" with me, and told me how to extend my permit so that I would not loosing my driving ability. Brendan at Johnson showed up to court prepared and organized. I wish I would have decided to go with Johnson Law Group in the beginning. I would have had my license back 2 years ago!

Chris is a very good traffic attorney who helped me avoid an impending driving license suspension in 35 days due to 3 moving violations in one year.
He was able to reinstate supervision on one of my tickets ( court had revoked supervision because I couldn't attend an in-person traffic school during the covid-19 pandemic shutdowns).
He asked me to take an online traffic school course ( something the county had refused to accept when I contacted them), filed a motion with the court to reinstate supervision and despite a delay in court communication with the circuit clerk's court's office, the process completed just in time to prevent my DL suspension.
I highly recommend Chris if you need a traffic Lawyer in Mclean County

My brother was recently incarcerated for multiple felony drug charges. I called Chris for representation and he was very prompt in his response and visit with my brother who was in jail. Chris did not charge a consultation fee and was very helpful in his meeting with my brother. While he was not a good fit in our case, he was very honest and provided referrals of those that could provide the appropriate representation.

After a nearly spotless driving record for 25+ years I was arrested for a DUI. I found out through Chris that because of having prior DUI's back over 26 years ago that they still were a factor even though I had Court Supervision back then. I thought that because of the Supervision I would be OK.... boy was I wrong and I was scared about going to jail/prison for this dreadful mistake. I talked with Chris and he assured me that he would do his best within the constraints of the law to help me. His commitment to helping his client is way beyond what I expected, he was a God Send for me. If you need a lawyer that knows the law and is truly concerned about you and your circumstances then look no further. Thank you Chris!!!
Sincerely,

I got a speeding ticket on my way to Bloomington, a big one. I called Chris seeking advice. He gave me exactly what I was looking for as part of his free consultation.
My court date is later this week, so I don't know if I will need him. But if I determine that I do, I will immediately give him a call.
He was prompt, helpful, and honest. I would recommend him immediately to anyone seeking legal assistance in his areas of expertise.
