Liberty Law, P.C., a criminal defense firm based in Naperville, has announced its ongoing commitment to representing individuals charged with criminal felonies and misdemeanors throughout DuPage County and surrounding jurisdictions. The firm provides trial-level defense for serious offenses including drug-related allegations, theft, and violent or battery charges across Kane, Will, Kendall, Grundy, and DeKalb counties.
Founder and managing attorney David Liberty brings a unique dual perspective to criminal defense, having worked on both sides of the courtroom. He began his legal career with the Homicide Task Force of the Cook County Public Defender's Office and later served as an Assistant Public Defender in both Cook County and Winnebago County from 2016 to 2018. During this period, he represented individuals facing a wide range of felony and misdemeanor charges, gaining firsthand insight into complex criminal litigation and trial advocacy.
Attorney Liberty also previously served as a prosecutor for the City of Joliet, providing him with valuable perspective on how criminal cases are investigated and pursued by the government. This experience informs the firm's approach to case evaluation and defense strategy development. In 2020, he established Liberty Law, P.C., focusing exclusively on criminal defense in private practice. The firm's location in Naperville can be viewed on Google Maps.
The firm's approach emphasizes careful case evaluation, thorough courtroom preparation, and advocacy tailored to the specific facts and circumstances of each matter. Since founding the firm, Attorney Liberty has continued to represent clients across multiple counties in Northern Illinois, building a reputation for preparation, client communication, and determined courtroom advocacy. He earned his Juris Doctor from Chicago-Kent College of Law, where he was inducted into the Bar and Gavel Society in recognition of his service to the legal community.
This announcement matters because access to experienced criminal defense representation can significantly impact case outcomes in Illinois' justice system. For individuals facing serious charges, having an attorney with both prosecution and defense experience provides strategic advantages in understanding how cases are built and challenged. The firm's expansion across multiple counties addresses the need for specialized criminal defense services in Northern Illinois communities beyond major metropolitan areas.
The implications extend to how criminal cases are handled throughout the region, potentially affecting plea negotiations, trial strategies, and overall legal representation quality. For the legal industry, this reflects a trend toward specialized practices with attorneys who have cross-disciplinary experience. For clients, it means access to defense strategies informed by understanding both sides of criminal proceedings, which could lead to more favorable outcomes in complex cases.
