  • I have hit the jackpot

    I've never considered myself a lucky person, but when it came down to finding the right criminal defense attorney, I have hit the jackpot. I went through a very rough time in my life and racked up 3 charges within a year. 1 battery, 1 felony and a DUI that labeled me as a repeat offender. Brian was able to get the battery completey dropped, the felony to a first time offender offense with 2 years probation along with 30 hours community service and a fine and my DUI dropped to a reckless driving. I'm fully aware that no other attorney in Madison County could have pulled this off. Brian, words can not express how thankful I am to have had you as my attorney. Unlike all other attorneys I have had in my past, Brian truly has your best interest at heart. He doesn't constantly bill you either. Stop searching for attorneys and give this guy a call. It will be the best decision you ever made. 💯👍💜

  • Very Happy

    Brian is an amazing attorney.  I hired him about a year ago with really no hope for my life.  I was so nervous about the trouble I had gotten myself into.  He went above and beyond to make sure he did everything in his power to help me and my case.  I was facing a very heavy sentence, more time that I could've ever imagined.  Brian went to bat for me even after we thought there was no hope.  He helped me and my family so much I can never than you enough!  He was upfront with me from the beginning.  This is the attorney to hire!!!

  • DUI suspension rescinded

    Brian is the best lawyer to hire!  I will not have to worry about license suspension thanks to his expertise.  I was worried that I would not have the opportunity to have suspension rescinded because of covid-19 but Brian got the job done!

  • DUI suspension rescinded

    I was given a DUI citation and feared the worst from the courts.  Brian calmed my fears during my initial consultation and continued to do so throughout the process.  Things were slowed by teh Corona pandemic but Brian never took his foot off the pedal.  As a result my DUI was set aside by court order.  I couldn't be more pleased with Polinske and Associates legal team.

  • Got the felony dropped

    My boyfriend has a CCL and was charged with aggravated assault, we thought he was going to lose the license..... Brian did his magic and he kept the CCL and after 6 months it won't be on his record. We are very pleased and will definitely recommend Polinske & Associates.

  • He got my DUI dropped

    I greatly appreciate the work done by Mr. Polinske. I was charged with a DUI, transportation, speeding, and failure to stop. Got everything reduced to just the transportation. Was very impressed on how he handled himself in the court room and kept me up to date on the case. Definitely recommend!

  • Hired them to get me out of jail and they did so promptly

    Hands down the best attorney I've ever had. He got my half a million dollar bond reduced so I could get out of jail. I was facing a 6 year minimum. He had my charges reduced and set for non reporting probation. He kept in touch and made it so I only had to come back for sentencing and right back home. DON'T HESITATE TO HIRE THEY ARE THE BEST!

  • Had lots of warrants. He got them quashed and took care of case quickly

    I'm very pleased with the work Brian Polinske has done. My family contacted him when I was arrested on warrants my prior attorney told me he took care of but didn't . He has been very thorough and quick with getting things taken care of. I'm beyond grateful and ready to move forward with my life and let my past be the past.

  • He got my charge dismissed

    Mr Polinske and his office were incredible. As an international client, not only did Polinske and his team provide amazing service, but he also managed to get my case dismissed. It is a major relief to be able to put your trust in a professional while being on the other side of the world.

  • Defense Attorney for Criminal Misdemeanor

    Defense Attorney for Criminal Misdemeanor 5.0 stars Posted by Heidi  March 20, 2019   Brian Polinske JD communicated effectively and expertly with us. This assessment is also accurate while conducting the defense during our jury trial. He thoroughly reviewed all of the information provided to him by us and by the court of Madison County. His professionalism toward the judge and Jurors is first rate. We will retain his legal services if we ever need him again. Thankfully, the jury brought back a not guilty verdict and the truth prevailed thanks to Brian Polinske’s skill and decorum.

  • He is well connected ...

    “Let the dog hunt” 5.0 stars Posted by LtGen Gary Hughey USMC(Ret)  March 20, 2019   Brian is a busy lawyer and you want a busy lawyer. He doesn’t have time to hold your hand. He does answer emails and texts and those are the best means of communicating with him. He does his homework and will be more than ready to fight your case in court. He is well connected within the justice community at the federal, state, and county levels. He is my “go to” attorney for both criminal and civil cases.

  • I highly recommend him

    Excellent Representation 5.0 stars Posted by Tyfanie  February 28, 2019   I have had the pleasure of Brian Polinske respresenting myself in multiple cases. I am over the top pleased with his assistance and, the outcome of my cases. Anytime I sent a text, email, or phone call all questions or concerns were addressed immediately. Face to face meetings were more than comfortable as well, as he treated me like a normal human being, which most lawyers do not. I highly recommend using Brian in any case you may have in the future!

  • My Son won't have a conviction

    Brian Polinske is the right choice, if you're looking to win! Brian is a skilled lawyer who mythodically prepares the case. He knows how the system works. His professionalism and confidence are quickly recognized and respected in the court room. I am a mother who can breathe again....I will forever be grateful to Brian for helping my son. My son made a bad decision and Brian worked it out so that my son got a second chance at life! My son was facing 2 Felony X Charges and 1 Class lll Felony Charge. (Do the math... It was a horrible situation) With my son living in CA and me living in NY we had absolutely no idea how to go about finding a lawyer in IL. We were blessed to have gotten Brian. There were many prayers and lots of emotions throughout this 14 month process but now it is finished!!!! Brian worked out a plea bargain of 2 years probation and fine for my son. I am still amazed!!! I will never forget to be thankful each morning. I continue to pray everyday and now I added Brian to my list :)
