DuPage County Fraudulent ID Attorneys

Illinois Lawyers for Clients Charged With Using a Fake ID

For many high school and college students, obtaining and using a fake ID may seem like a rite of passage. In most cases, fraudulent identification cards are used as a way around state laws against underage drinking and to gain access to 21-and-over bars or clubs. If you are caught using a fake ID, however, the “rite of passage” is suddenly not so appealing. Penalties can be very severe and the impact to your future may be more serious than you might expect. At the Davi Law Group, we understand that young people make mistakes, and we are committed to helping prevent those mistakes from causing unnecessary long-term problems.

Underage Drinking and Fake ID Attorneys Serving Northern Illinois

While there are many ways in which a fake ID may be utilized, such as in conjunction with medical fraud or theft by deception, the most common involve trying to get into bars and drinking establishments. In some cases, being caught with a fake ID will result in security personnel simply confiscating the card and denying access. In others, the fraudulent identification will be turned over to law enforcement, which is when the real trouble will often begin.

Possession or use of a fraudulent or fake ID is considered a Class 4 felony under Illinois law. A conviction will result in the mandatory suspension of driving privileges of at least one year and a minimum fine of $500 or 50 hours of community service. Depending on the nature of the case, additional fines or even a prison sentence of up to three years may be imposed.
