Attorney Charged with Forging Court-Ordered Community Service Documents for Client

Sharing is Caring, WeGo!

DuPage County State’s Attorney Robert Berlin announced today that a DuPage County Grand Jury has indicted an attorney from South Holland on six counts of forgery alleging she falsified proof of court-ordered community service documents for a client of hers. On August 26, 2025, a DuPage County judge issued a personal recognizance arrest warrant for Devin Luster, 30 (d.o.b. 9/11/1994) of the 1100 block of E 173rdPlace. On August 28, 2025, Luster turned herself in to authorities at the DuPage County Jail, where she was processed and subsequently released. Luster is charged with six counts of Forgery, a Class 3 Felony.

According to the Indictment, Luster “with the intent to defraud, knowingly delivered to the DuPage County Circuit Court Clerk’s Office a false document apparently capable of defrauding another, being a volunteer community service documentation form … dated December 16, 2024, that indicated” her client “completed 247.5 hours of community service” at a Calumet City daycare facility. The six-count Indictment against Luster was filed on August 26, 2025.

“Court orders are not optional, and anyone caught submitting falsified documents to the Court will face serious consequences,” Berlin said. “I thank the Grand Jury for their time and dedication to the rule of law. I also thank Assistant State’s Attorney Ken Tatarelis, Supervisor of my office’s Public Integrity/Financial Crimes Division, as well as State’s Attorney Investigator Timothy Black for their thorough investigation into this matter that led to charges against the defendant.”

Luster’s next court appearance is scheduled for October 9, 2025, in front of Judge Margaret O’Connell.

Members of the public are reminded that this indictment contains only charges and is not proof of the defendants’ guilt. The defendant is presumed innocent and is entitled to a fair trial in which it is the government’s burden to prove their guilt beyond a reasonable doubt.
