Chicago · Chicagoland
Cook County · Served by Riskara Insurance Group
If a Cook County court — typically the Daley Center or one of the suburban courthouses — has ordered you to file an SR-22, Riskara files it electronically with the Illinois Secretary of State the day your auto policy binds. Illinois requires 3 years of continuous SR-22 filing from the date of the qualifying conviction. We write Chicago drivers in every part of the city.
Your insurance carrier files it for you, electronically, with the Illinois Secretary of State. You don't file it yourself, and you don't need to take it to the court. As long as your policy is active with SR-22 attached, the filing satisfies the court order.
For a single driver, state minimum limits, no comp/collision, no other violations: roughly $1,600–$2,400 a year for a first-offense DUI. Cook County tends to run on the higher side of the Illinois average. Non-owner SR-22 (no vehicle) is much cheaper — $400–$800 a year.
Within Illinois, your SR-22 obligation continues regardless of where in the state you live. If you move to another state, your IL obligation often follows; tell us your new state and we'll coordinate the filing requirements there.
Same-day filing, no separate filing fee, and our AI compares non-standard carriers to find your lowest premium.
