Gain Everyone's Consent Before Recording Conversations in Illinois

People are confused about the interception laws. The interception laws vary from state to state. This article is about the only law in Illinois. There are exceptions to the law for police and law enforcement authorities. I represent individuals and small businesses.

For the average person, the law is very clear. Not talking with other people without their consent. This means that each party that is part of the conversation, the recording must agree. If there are fourPeople with a conversation, all four must consent to be recorded. Two people from the four parties to a conversation can not be recorded to the conversation consent.

There are two very important reasons for winning either all or not the agreement of the recording of the conversation at all. First unconsented recording the conversation of a procedure is never permissible, in a civil or criminal. Secondly, that the recording is unconsented a felony class 4 (1-3 years imprisonment)for the first offense, a Class 3 felony (3-7 years jail time) for subsequent offenses and crimes of Class 1 (4-15 years jail time) when the recording of a police officer, prosecutor, assistant prosecutor, Attorney General, Assistant Attorney General or judges.

The concept of conversation among the eavesdropping statute any oral communication between two or more persons, regardless of whether one or more of the parties to communicate on a private nature under theirCircumstances this expectation. So the people do not even have an expectation of privacy. If you want to record the conversation, you have to ask everyone to accept the recording.

A fundamental way a person is required when device eavesdropping intentionally used an interception for the purpose of the hearing or recording all or part of any conversation or intercepts, retains, or transcribes electronic communication unless he does so with the consent of all the parties to suchConversation or electronic communication.

Remember, you are not helping yourself or your situation, record a conversation without everyone's consent.
