John P Yetter, Attorney

John Yetter is a Chicago native who has spent nearly fifteen years in the practice of criminal defense.  Since graduating from the University of Dayton he has made it his goal to provide the best defense available for people pursued by the government.

As a public defender John was assigned to a variety of special courts.  He spent years in DUI court and domestic violence court.  Beyond that he spent extended periods in general courtrooms where he was involved in the defense of people charged with crimes ranging from speeding tickets to capital murder.  After doing hundreds of motions and trials, he entered private practice.

For the last ten years he has defended juveniles and adults all over Illinois in both State and Federal courts.  He has handled major felony cases in no less than fifteen counties in Illinois.

In addition he has unparalleled expertise in helping individuals regain their right to drive.  From circuit court motions and judgment negotiations to hearings before the Secretary of State, his level of success is singular.  Very recently a client of Mr. Yetter had his driving privileges returned after his fourth DUI.

In the last seven years he and Wayne Brucar have built the Firm of Brucar & Yetter, P.C. into a recognized leader in providing high quality defenses to complex prosecutions.
