Heather McArdle Ryan

I have been practicing criminal law for over 20 years in DuPage, Cook, Will, Kane and Kendall Counties. I am a former Assistant State's Attorney who has prosecuted cases in the traffic, misdemeanor and felony divisions. I know both sides of a criminal prosecution very well and know how to effectively negotiate with prosecutors to gain positive results. I also represent clients at Secretary of State License Reinstatement Hearings and have success in counseling clients in their efforts to be approved for full reinstatement and restricted driving permits. Also a 200 Hour RYT certificate yoga instructor & mother of two girls. Awards and Honors Honors Best Attorney Naperville, 2016
