About:
Since 1993, we've been helping the accused by listening, preparing, protecting, and caring. Founded in Minneapolis in 1993, we have devoted our practice to only criminal defense. You will be asked to be a part of our team, as no one knows the facts better than you. Together we will gather all the evidence, hidden and apparent, the forgotten, and your discoveries. We will not pressure you to plead guilty, and we will brainstorm together to figure out the best course of action: trial or no trial. Allow us the opportunity to listen to you, work with you, fight for you today, and get the results that are possible with great legal representation.

"I couldn't have picked a better law firm team, than Heart of Illinois Criminal defense! I was a nervous wreck and ashamed of a bad choice. They went out of their way to do a fantastic job for me, all the while making me feel support and at ease in a very scary time! I also got the best outcome than ever expected! Truly amazing, Maureen, Greg & Dawn!"

"Maureen is hands-on, hard working , very attentive to details, and one lawyer that will go all the way for her client to win. She did that with my family. I will place life in her hands and know that with all the experience and confidence, she will get the job done. Great lawyer, great associate, great woman for the hardest jobs that no lawyer will stand up to. Maureen Williams, my first option and my only option for life..."

"I was charged with a DUI in March and went to talk with Maureen williams with Heart of Illinois Criminal Defense. After a brief discussion with Maureen I realized she genuinely wanted to help me and she knew her stuff. At my court date she was focused, prepared, and on top of her game. At the end of the day my case was dismissed because of her preparedness and willing to fight. I highly recommend giving Maureen Williams a call at Heart of Illinois Criminal Defense if u ever find yourself in my situation. Hats off to ya Maureen thanks a bunch"
