I hired Cary for a dui in 2019. Due to covid, the case got continued until February 2021. He never promised what the end result would be, but explained what could or couldn't happen. He didn't charge me more due to the constant continuances, and ALWAYS returned my calls and texts! The final result was amazing! He did a great job! I would definitely HIRE CARY!! Thank you for all you did Cary!

Cary Dohman represented me on a DUI case that went to trial and I was found not guilty! He was very reasonably price and despite my case being prolonged he did not adjust or increase his rates. Cary did an excellent job explaining the process and potential verdicts/outcomes. I was very impressed by his ability to cross-examine the two police officers which I think ultimately reveal some important facts that helped my case. I would 100% recommend Cary.

Carrie was a very professional positive attorney in my case. I had an encounter with Rolling Meadows police department regarding a traffic stop about driving while impaired l. This was the first time in my life I faced something like this and was very scared, worried, and confused about every thing due to the Rolling meadows police department not being honest with my case. My job was on the line and when I was losing hope it all came back when I contacted Mr. Dohman which he answered right away. Carrie handled my case well and always behaved in a well mannered way to keep feeling comfortable. I do not like recommending lawyers for DUI cases because they are very stressing and discomforting situations; which I had to go through and would never want someone else having those times of difficulties but if you do Mr. Dohman is the man you want handling your case. I owe Carrie a lot and hopefully he can help anyone else who has a pending case like the one I had.

I contacted Cary a day before I needed to be in court for a DUI related case. I had called several attorneys but Cary was the most responsive and easiest to talk to. We discussed the case and he helped me feel much less stressed over the whole process since he clearly knew what he was doing. I felt confident Cary was a good choice since he had so much experience in DUI cases and was familiar with the Rolling Meadows courthouse and everyone who worked there - I needed an attorney that knew how the judges and prosecutors would be thinking, and that's exactly what I got. Thanks to Cary I knew my case was in good hands, and we got it dismissed. Throughout the whole process he was communicative and answered all my questions promptly. If you need legal help, especially if it's related to a DUI, Cary will make sure you are taken care of.

Cary is hands down one of the best DUI Attorneys in Cook County. The moment I consulted with him about a DUI charge in Cook County was the first time I felt somewhat at ease since the date of arrest. Mr. Dohman took me through the details surrounding my case including realistic expectations on the outcome of my case, which kept me grounded. I immediately decided to hire Mr. Dohman. It was one of the smartest decisions I could have made. Every step of the way, Cary gave me good advice on what to do to give me the best chance of getting a preferable outcome for my case. He answered any and all of my questions and calmed my anxieties throughout the entire court process. We eventually succeeded in reducing the original charge, and my life will forever be easier thanks to the professionalism and expertise of Cary Dohman. I could not thank this lawyer enough!

Cary was phenominal at helping me through the process of a first time DUI; not only in advising and representing me, but also in making sure I understood evey aspect of what was going on. On top of that, the case went as well as absolutely possible, and I couldn’t be more thankful about the agreement with the judge. Before hiring Cary, he was the only lawyer I spoke to that didn’t give me a sales pitch after I said I was waiting to contact a few more options; in fact he encouraged that I speak to as many as possible before making a choice, so I found someone I was comfortable with. After hiring, he agreed to meet me as many times as I wished before a court date, and was always accessible by phone. I would recommend him to any one I know personally.
