About Nathan B. Davidson 

Nathan B. Davidson is a committed criminal defense attorney with a proven track record of fighting for his clients' rights. His deep understanding of the legal system was forged through extensive practical experience, including several years as an Assistant Prosecutor.

Nathan's interest in the law began early, competing in his high school’s mock trial program. This foundation propelled him into diverse legal internships and public service. While in law school, his dedication to both public service and the law led him to volunteer at a local homeless shelter, connecting indigent residents with civil legal assistance, and to participate in the Health Advocacy Clinic, assisting with Social Security Disability applications. Nathan further honed his courtroom skills by competing in the ABA/JMLS National Criminal Justice Trial Competition.

During his time at Northern Illinois University College of Law, Nathan gained invaluable insight into the judicial process through internships with judges in Winnebago and Kendall Counties. He also gained hands-on experience working under a 711 limited practicing license in the DeKalb County Public Defender's Office before graduating in 2017.

Most notably, Nathan served as a prosecutor in DeKalb, Macon, and Rock Island Counties. In this role, he gained firsthand experience across a broad spectrum of cases, from traffic and misdemeanor offenses to DUIs and complex felonies. This prosecutorial background provides him with a unique and strategic advantage in understanding how the other side builds its cases, directly benefiting his criminal defense clients.

Nathan's focus is on providing strong, effective legal representation. He leverages his comprehensive experience to navigate the complexities of the legal system and achieve the best possible outcomes for those he represents.
