Baiid Device

A recent Illinois law also specifically prohibits a driver with two or more DUI convictions from driving a vehicle without an ignition interlocking device. ... Repeat DUI offenders can only get an interlocking device removed after 12 consecutive months passing without the device detecting alcohol. #baiiddevice, 

Marital Property

Illinois is not a community property state – it is an “equitable division” state. That means marital property and debts need not be divided 50 / 50. Rather, the law requires property to be divided "equitably." Many cases are resolved with 60/40, 70/30 splits and some even allocate ALL marital property to one spouse. #divorce, #divisionofproperty,

Avoid Court Costs

The easiest way to avoid court costs is to avoid going to court. Some citations do not require you to appear in court. These include seat belt tickets, accident tickets (with no personal injury), and petty speeding tickets (1-25 MPH over the speed limit) to name a few. This means you may be able to just pay the ticket and the case is over.

However, you must be aware that if you just pay the ticket and receive a conviction, your insurance rates and your driver’s license may be affected.

The other way to avoid court costs is to get all your tickets dismissed or win at trial. Of course, this is not always possible and depends on your circumstances, record, prosecutor, and judge, among other things. #avoidcourtcosts,

Notary Public

The purpose of notarization is to prevent fraud and forgery. The notary acts as an official and unbiased witness to the identity of person who comes before the notary for a specific purpose. Notaries are appointed by the Secretary of State for a four year term. #notarypublic,
