Okabe & Haushalter | Criminal Defense Serving Evanston and Cook County, Illinois (h1)
Okabe & Haushalter is a Chicago-based criminal defense firm that represents clients in Evanston and throughout Cook County, reachable at 312-767-3869. The firm’s practice covers a wide range of criminal matters, from DUI defense and drug crimes to domestic violence, weapons charges, and federal crime, extending into more serious allegations such as murder and sex crimes as well as specialized situations like border arrests and music festival arrests.
The firm’s attorneys include former Cook County state’s attorneys, and the firm points to that background as giving it what it calls “an intimate knowledge of this county’s criminal justice system,” an advantage it applies whether a client is facing a first-time drug possession charge or a complex federal case. Okabe & Haushalter positions itself as willing to take on matters that it says “many firms turn down,” a stance reflected in its handling of high-stakes cases like manslaughter and child pornography charges alongside more routine expungement and juvenile arrest matters.
The firm has been recognized with the Super Lawyers designation on multiple occasions, a “Top 40 Under 40” rating, inclusion in Newsweek magazine’s list of leading criminal defense attorneys, and an Avvo Top Criminal Defense distinction, credentials that reinforce its standing among Chicago-area defense practices. A specific street address was not published on the firm’s website after checking its homepage, contact page, and practice pages, though the firm can be reached by phone for consultation.
