I've used Michael Young a number of times and he has ALWAYS followed through with what he said he was going to do. he was honest from the start and gave no false hope. luckily he has always gotten my cases dropped like he said he was going to do, gave me my chances for success told me to relax and leave it in his hands, just recently he got 2 driving on a suspended and failure to appear on both dropped at district 3 which is the toughest court house. on another case of leaving the scene of an accident with multiple tickets stacked on top of that he dropped. I've used a few lawyers in the past and NONE of them hold a candle to Michael Young. I stand by him 100%

Michael was very forthcoming, and knowledgeable on the subject. Answered all of my questions, and then some. Did not end up going with him only because my case had settled.

I heard about Mike through a friend, who talked very highly of him. I was skeptical at first because I thought there was no way he'd be able to do what he said he might be able to. Mike was extremely consultative, accessible, and honest throughout the entire process. He worked hard for me and was never on autopilot. He got hands down THE best possible outcome for me with my DUI case. The best case scenarios that other attorneys mentioned to me when I consulted with them weren't half as favorable as what Mike was able to accomplish. Anyone dealing with a case in Illinois should at least consult with this guy because he does great, great work.

Michael Young is prompt, professional, and accurate. He makes magic happen in the court room. He has represented me a number of times over the past 15 years and I would never turn to anyone else FOR ANYTHING! He always seems to have great relationships with EVERYONE in the court room. He recently got my class A misdemeanor for criminal speeding (35+ mph over the limit) reduced to supervision for a regular speeding ticket. Beside what I paid Michael, I only paid a small fee to the court, no marks on my criminal record and I have my license. I already had a great deal made before my name was called. I was able to walk to the judge with confidence because I already knew what was going to happen. The first words out of the judges' mouth was "Your lawyer has done a great job for you today" Need I say more? Thank you Michael!!!!!

Michael Young is a highly experienced attorney who dedicates himself to helping his clients and offers advice to fellow attorneys. I have consulted with Mr. Young on several occasions to review my case strategy with him and he has always been helpful. His experience gives me the necessary insight to better prepare my case for trial.

After making a few incredibly ignorant choices back to back, my family and I hired Michael. I was facing two charges, retail theft and underage drinking, and to make it worse, I got these tickets only two weeks apart. He was so knowledgeable and helpful the entire time. It was a very lengthy process, but he did not give up until both cases were non suited, or dropped from my record. He was very persistent in court and never caved in or gave up. The prosecutor wanted to drop the drinking ticket, but keep the retail theft ticket, but Michael would not let that happen. He wanted the best outcome for me, and he made it clear that it did not matter how long it took. After 5 trips to the courtroom, the prosecutor finally agreed to drop both charges as long as I went to one 2 hour class. The outcome was worth the wait. Michael was able to do far more than I accpected him to do. HIGHLY recommended

Mike represented me in an at-fault accident. Even though I pled guilty before consulting him he was able to vacate my plea and successfully defend me. Mike made sure I did not lose my house.

I was charged with a DUI and my driver's license was suspended. I hired Michael Young to defend me. The state's case was extremely solid with a damaging video of extremely poor driving. Michael didn't hit a home run, but a grand slam, as I was found not guilty on the DUI and had my suspension rescinded. Michael has vast courtroom experience, a superior knowledge of the law, and demonstrated a logical, practical and strategically superior approach representing me against the state. He succeeded in securing 2 very key stipulations with state's attorney, and was effective in obtaining key information from the arresting officer which proved to be the deciding evidence in the judge's ruling. If you need representation from a defense attorney look no further. Michael Young is a winner.
