Richard Albanese

Hello, my name is Richard Albanese and I am a Traffic and Criminal Defense Attorney and former Prosecutor with over two decades of experience handling thousands of cases including speeding and traffic tickets, DUI, and more serious misdemeanor and felony offenses. I am here to apply my vast knowledge and experience in the traffic courts and criminal justice system of Lake County to your case. I routinely handle Speeding Tickets, Accidents, and other Traffic Violations at the Lake County Branch Courts located in Park City, Mundelein and Round Lake Beach and more serious matters such as DUI Cases or Misdemeanor and Felony Criminal Cases at the main courthouse in Waukegan. I am licensed to handle all cases across the States of Illinois and Wisconsin. I pride myself on listening to my clients, determining what their legal issues may be and then explaining in a straightforward manner what penalties or punishments they may be facing including potential impacts to their driving records and what their options are to best resolve the case. I am a seasoned litigator and am not afraid to fight for my clients in and out of the courtroom. I return all client phone calls within the same business day and set very reasonable fees on all matters. My office is conveniently located across the street from the Waukegan Courthouse at 5 S. County St. and I offer virtual consultations as well. Please contact me today at 312-882-1973 for a free consultation and let me help you protect your future driving record or to prevent or mitigate your criminal background.
