Criminal Defense Law

At the Law Offices of Azita M. Mojarad, P.C., our legal team’s experience can provide formidable defenses for our clients in all felony and misdemeanor cases.

We take on the most serious cases involving state and federal criminal law violations, post-conviction relief, and appeals. We can also provide your best defense for traffic violations, driver license suspension, and driving while intoxicated (DUI) charges in Chicago and the surrounding Chicago area.

We have experience and success in the following areas of criminal law:

• Appeals (State and Federal)
  When legal matters at first do not work in your favor, you have options. Our Chicago attorneys will defend you in your appeal process.
• Bond Hearings/Requests
  Bail amounts can vary greatly. We will ensure your right to a fair hearing and fair bond requirements.
• Drivers License Suspension
  It is a great inconvenience when your driving privileges are suspended or revoked. When it comes to those privileges, remember that you have rights. We will protect them.
• Driving While Intoxicated/DUI
  DUIs are serious, and the legal consequences can be costly when you do not have proper legal representation. We can help.
• Drug Offenses
  A drug offense can disrupt, and even destroy, one’s life and well-being. We will protect your rights, keep overly aggressive prosecutors in check, and advocate for you along the way.
• Federal Criminal Law
  Legal matters on a federal level are prosecuted under different procedures and case law than state violations. Our team of attorneys understands the nuances of this distinction and can fight for your rights during each step of the process.
• State Felony
  Illinois law is what our team of Chicago area lawyers knows and practices daily. If your legal dilemma is based in Illinois, let The Law Offices of Azita M. Mojarad assist you.
• Misdemeanors
  Crimes that are not felonies remain serious, especially if multiple misdemeanors are at play. Let our lawyers work to protect your best interests.
• Post-Conviction Relief
  Our services can help you get released, petition for a new trial, modify your sentence, and obtain other remedies the court finds proper and just.
• Traffic Violations
  If you have received a traffic ticket or had charges filed against you as a result of a traffic accident, our skilled attorneys can provide you the best possible defense and most favorable outcome.
• White-Collar Crime
  The U.S. legal system is hearing the outcry for stricter enforcement of white-collar crime. If you find yourself accused of a white-collar crime, work with attorneys who are experienced in this arena and are ready to fight for you.

Among our headline or current cases:

• In a case where the government alleged a university student had sent anonymous e-mails to university administrators one day after the shooting rampage at another university, securing probation and community service.
• In a case where the government alleged sixteen counts of violating the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) by exporting shipments of equipment from the U.S. to Iran, securing probation and $1,000 fine.

Let our legal team defend you or a loved one in any criminal matter.
